Is tomorrow going to be the main Madden 10 Info Release Day at E3? That would be rather nice.

I am so sick of hearing 'maybe next year'...

This IS next year.

I mean, its great we know about all of the gameplay enhancements and we will learn about these online and presentation things, but PLEASE let us have a lot more information about franchise revealed. That is the mode that sells this game and keeps it fun for months and months (which hasn't been the case cuz it hasn't been touched in years and years). I think I can speak for all franchise guys when I say I am chomping at the bit and I feel a little bit neglected. Some of the things we need to hear more about: -More in-depth explanation about the "fixed" progression -Draft presentation and more info about the pre-made draft classes -Offseason in general (draft, FA signing, trades, training camp, etc) -Highlight shows (pre game/halftime/post game/weekly wrap up shows) -Menus and navigation -Fixed Simmed stats (no more robo-QB with high completion %) -What from head coach made it into franchise? etc

Well there was one franchise blog back about 4 months ago on franchise mode. I will try and find the blog and give you the link to let you read it. But I am sure some info will not be explained at E3. Franchise offline mode I think will be talkes about more thorugh blogs in the coming weeks instead at E3. But some info still might come from E3. But how much is still unknown. But I am hoping for some info from E3.

BTW heres is the link to the franchise mode blog. http://maddennfl.easports.com/blog.a...20Improvements

Yeah I know. I read that blog the day it came out. Thats why I said the only things we know about are pre-made draft classes, improved draft logic, and "fixed" progression

I'm assuming that's how Bryan (PastaPadre) got in. I'm going to split a taxi with him tomorrow since we're getting in around the same time tomorrow at LAX, so maybe I'll ask him.

Regardless, I still thought blogs and other places like that just went that route to get in without paying for a ticket. I haven't tracked it too closely, though, so I wouldn't be surprised if my facts were a bit off.
