Highlight Show in Franchise Mode

[brza37]

Seriously hyped about this feature. It can add tons to the immersion level in franchise instead of feeling like your just playing in a vacuum. Still playing College Hoops 2k8 cuz of this.

And there would be no one better for the job than Emmitt Smith! I hope they captured HOURS worth of Emmitt debacling the english language for the highlight show.

I'm gonna have to go ahead and uhhhhhhh sorta disagree with you there...







We already know that the draft/signing logic of the computer is fixed, progression/regression was worked on, playoffs and superbowl actually feel special (just to name a few off of the top of my head), and the premade draft classes is HUGE. I'm going to assume you haven't played HC09. The draft in that was a masterpiece. Finally players aren't completely useless with 95 speed and 70 acceleration. Also, we're able to have busts in the first round and gems in the 5th/6th/7th rounds. I am extremely excited about this.

I think they've just scratched the surface on whats in franchise mode. But, to tell you the truth, if we only got the improvements that we know so far, thats enough for me to consider this the best franchise mode we've ever had, and it will finally be fun to play franchise mode and not feel like its 16 play now games.

"Beyond Broadcast Presentation-Set your sights on the Vince Lombardi Trophy in an all-new network television-style broadcast as Cris Collinsworth and Tom Hammond call the action from the booth. A more immersive and visually stunning presentation package also includes a new Options OnDemand Picture-in-Picture playcall window giving you access to a wealth of stats, customized tips, and in-game options-all at your fingertips without having to pause the game"

sounds awesome right? too bad the above statement was for Madden nfl 09, and what a big pile of crap that game's presentation turned out to be. I won't get excited about anything presentation-wise unless I saw it myself.

did you like the jimmy Fallon vid?

But anyways, I think Madden 09's presentation gets a lot of heat. Like don't get me wrong, it wasn't amazing but it wasn't complete crap either imo. Madden 07/08 for the 360 practically didn't have any form of presentation.

Hahaha Great post mate.
Love Office Space btw and yes i have read the franchise update,but since ive drank the coolaid before......

-Sadly i didnt get to play Head Coach, it never got a Pal Release
-I really like the Idea of true busts and Gems, just been doing alot of drafting in 09 recently so many problems.
Would be nice to have overview of the draft class and just alot more surrounding it. Same for free agency it should be huge event

I wonder if they are going expand upon the superbowl celebration "win, win" i'm hoping for some engrish. Something like "winnar are you" would suffice.
