I finally win the Super Bowl ...3 ...2 ...1 ....and *poof* ...the screen goes BLACK

I can still hear the crowd noise, but NO PICTURE.



EA, please let go of NFL exclusivity.

Be careful what you ask for, if you know EA sports, juke and spin moves will be deleted from the game all together if they decide its something that needs "fixing"

On The Madden Moment 'Falcons Claw Panthers', If You Select The Play 'PA Ctr Waggle', and Make A Streak Hot Route For White, And You Score A Touchdown For It And Win The Challenge And Go To The Main Menu, It Only Loads The Trophy Background, And Music, But No Menu, Thus Having To Exit And Reset The Game, Losing You Unsaved Progress. This Is On The Collector's Edition.

These were probably mentioned already,maybe even I mentioned it but just in case there's a couple of rewind bugs.

I was playing as the Titans and going for it on 4th and 1,I wanted White out there but after I ran the play and failed saw it was Johnson so I hit rewind. I wasn't able to call a timeout to get White in there AND the T.O.P changed after I did score and said I only had the ball for like 30 seconds.

When in free agency in francise mode occasionally the cpu will withdraw my offer saying that itll put me over the salary cap, even though I usually have $20 million in cap room. It mainly happens when trying to sign a qb but its happened a few times with running backs and kickers.

On point 1, I have seen the CPU do the same on defense, by going into a FG block formation when I have the ball with 15-30 seconds and at least 1 TO. I have been able to audible to a quick slant and the receiver has been open every time for an easy TD.

Point 2: I have seen countless times, which has discouraged me from ever running a flare pass to a RB in the flat, because I hate completing a pass and be in worse shape than I was before the play (from 1st and 10 to 2nd and 16!).

An added glitch: I often "supersim" an interesting game for the first three quarters, then jump and play the fourth quarter. But I have seen several instances when the two scoreboards don't match, and the top one is always correct, while the lower one has always tacked on scoring that didn't happen
