Some good improvements to the franchise mode this year. Minor, but welcome. I can't tell if the overall graphical facelift on my PC is from my ugrade in graphics card or the game. The menu is easier to navigate then last year....except in Ultimate mode. Every year they make that more of a maze in an effort to sell more cards for really money.
I like the various control and gameplay options that have been added. Being able to pick through "classic" and newer versions of the control scheme for individual playtypes is always welcome in a sports game. I don't have the reflexes for a kicking system anymore complicated then the orginal..lol.
What did they do for franchise mode? I used to love Madden, but franchise mode is all I play, and it seems like it's been on the back burner for quite a while. Every year I hear rumors they are going to improve it, but it seems like it keeps getting pushed. Did they do enough to make it worth jumping back in?

EA seemed to actually be on a path of (somewhat) healing itself. Hope this doesn't mean they drive the whole single-player revival van straight off a cliff.
I don't know much about the "Positive Play Group", but it sounds like PTA moms sticking their noses into something they don't really understand. I don't know what I'm talking about, but it really has a Bible School ring to me. Not going to miss it.Help us help you:

- No day&night cycle. This potentially reduces immersion and makes obsolete some neat racial D&D traits like elf/half-elf infravision.
