86 Superstar and use the extra space for dynamic crowds and realistic sidelines.

SUPERSTAR DOES NOT TAKE UP A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF DISK SPACE. I'm so tired of that request.

Yeah, add like a pre game locker room speech by the coach, or make the player introductions better by showing them actually walking down the tunnel...or remember the Madden Intro Movie with B.Dawkins "Do you Feel that thing in your chest?" ...Yeah, have like a player give an inspirational speech or something during pre game

I have said that for years about a lot of those silly games that serve no purpose what so ever other than to waste EA resources that could be spent on other endeavors.

Instead, I would like to see a more storied franchise mode. By storied, I mean, I want each week to be told like a story with news items from the local news stations, updates on key players, talks of trades, or unrest in the camp (strategy/management), players battling injuries (minigame), players looking for a big game (minigame), information on weekly leaders, yearly leaders, playoff contenders/standings, divisional leaders, superbowl predictions. I want it to feel like the NFL.

Notice I marked 'minigame' up there? They need mini games, but they should be part and parcel of the franchise (optional) that affect the story and team on a weekly basis.
