Also I HOPE HOPE HOPE they make Franchise mode better. Well, they have two of the guys from Head Coach 09 are on the Madden team this year. I'd wager that even if it's not everything people hope for (which in one cycle would be hard to implement), it'll at the very least be a solid foundation for them to build off of. Have faith in the new development team. They care about football. ;D

I just really hope they fix the way draft classes from NCAA work. I hate how the stats are totally random once their imported into a franchise.
I also don't like how you have to sim a dynasty season in order to get a draft class. In the NCAA game, you should just be able to make one, and pick what players stay for school and which declare for the draft.

I don't really care though as I just get my draft classes off the internet and put them on my ps3.

I don't know what a "whole team" entails at EA Sports, and I doubt it'd be an entire team...so I'll say a few people have been changed. The main people are a new Senior Producer and a new Lead Designer. Then they bring in guys that they like and fit their vision, so we end up with a couple Head Coach guys. They also have a great art guy that's done some cool things this year (it's on EA's blog somewhere) but he's probably not new to the Madden team. These guys care more about football than having some bling-bling RingBuilder feature.

This game is sounding better and better. Hopefully there is more to the off season, and I hope they fix where you just run straight and it can't be stopped.

Yeah, the lack of presentation is always something that I feel has hurt--if not sometimes killed--the Madden games. One of the reasons why I loved 2K5 so much was because of those little cutscenes with the fans coming in and finding there seats and those little clips of Boomer before and especially in the middle of the game. Also the end of the game interviews and recap were always great too. I really hope they're on their way to something like that. The slower gameplay is nice to hear too. Even if it is just 5%. The new video looks great. I loved last year's Madden and this one really only looks better. Should be great.

I hope the ability to get sacks is included in this go around.

This game looks awesome. I love such things as the injury report where you can see how good he will be if placed back in. And the fact that we will have the chain gain and refs back, as well as the pre-game activities is great too. The graphics also look amazing.

Wow. The new injury system looks so awesome. I'll actually keep them on this year. The injury cart is just the icing on the cake. I was really, really hoping they'd put that in too. I'm loving the way this game's looking.

They are actually putting a lot of effort into this year's game. I'm expecting something really amazing.

I was hoping they'd leave dehydration in. It would be a key aspect of early fall games in Tampa or Miami.

Hahaha that Madden 92 video is classic. Ambulances just running over players.
