country, when you start a franchise and replace an existing team with a created team, is the new team still located in the city of the team its replacing. For example, in the past, if you created the Toronto Argos and used them to replace the Cincinnati Bengals, in dynasty youd be located in Cincinnati and not Toronto (look at the city info in the owner menu OR look at the city at the beginning of a game when it mentions the weather).

Also, can you relocate teams to Toronto, Montreal, Los Angeles, and San Antonio?

Are the logos for created teams pretty much the same?

Are there any new wrinkles or is anything different with the uniform customizer?

Can you control all the teams and then at some point toggle the ownership to the CPU?

Can you create a coach? If not, do current players become coaches once they retire?

Can you elaborate on the super sim? Ive heard that its really clunky compared to NCAA.

When importing draft classes, what kind of a speed hit do RBs take?

As for everything that was asked about custom teams and such, I didn't do this last year so I have nothing to compare this year to. The only thing that I can say is that create a team is very very basic in my opinion.

As for the importing draft class question, I haven't completed a season on NCAA to have a draft class to upload so I can't answer this question.

You cannot create a coach and I don't know yet whether or not current players become coaches.

As for supersim never use it.

When having a team take over for a current NFL team in franchise mode, it appears that the replaced city stays with the new team. Using your example, the team would still be in Cincinnati.

I don't see how to control all teams in franchise and then switch the control to cpu. So I am going to answer no.

I haven't tried online yet and probably won't tonight.

No prob with the impressions. Not sure how many I have really given.

CB,

Thank you very much for answering our questions.

How do the graphics compare to NCAA '08 on the PS3?

Are you noticing the comeback A.I. that was reviewed in the Game Trailers review?

Are you seeing more fumbles than interceptions, or about equal?

If you're seeing some frame rate issues, is it more between plays or during?

Thanks again.

How is the weather effects is the snow just a solid white blanket where you can't see the lines like in NCAA.
