    What is going to push ESPN Football over madden?

    What is different in Franchise mode, that will push it over Madden?

    -Not that E-Mail thing (Altho it looks cool)
    -Crib Mode? (I don't think this a franchise feature, only a knock off of madden cards)
    -Gameplay (Maybe, but they need to make somthing for diehard sim fans.)

    I would love to see a more beefed up franchise mode on ESPN but I think the reason they haven't done anything to that affect is because the developers know they have a loyal fanbase that plays the game more for the GAMEPLAY.

    The Gameplay is the strength in that series whereas in MADDEN it's the franchise. If only we could have a football game with MADDEN's Franchise and ESPN's gameplay.

          I'd say the email system because it's deeper then some of you think. Also because you can be fired and have goals to accomplish so it gives you a purpose for playing it. I beleive franchise will be extremely fun. Gameplay and atmosphere will push ESPN over the top. It's a football game and it boils down to playing on the feild and ESPN will put Madden to shame in that aspect.

                I don't think Gameplay is a maybe. Thats a "for sure" or a "Fa Sho". lol!

                I think VC will deepen Franchise Mode next year since there appears to be a solid gameplay engine in place. They'll have more polished gameplay(possibly new gameplay features) AND a deeper Franchise Mode in ESPN2k5 though.

                Thats pretty damn scary. Especially for the folks at EA/Tiburon.

                            Kinda like their bugged version for Xbox, altho they are going to repair them, but it would kinda ask wat the hell were they testing not to see that since the feature is part of their selling points.
