However, I did think this year it was open to the public if you paid money to get into the event. Just at certain times and certain days. But, maybe the ESA's idea of public means it's just for people who have some sort of blog etc. who go through the process of showing they should be allowed into the show.

Well, we know the 3 main things that will be focused on at E3 will be to showcase the Presentation improvements, the "BIG" online announcement, and the Extra Points show.

Although the Extra Points show has to do with franchise, we pretty much know next to nothing about franchise mode this year, aside from pre-made draft classes, improved CPU draft logic, and "fixed" progression.

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

%00 bucks are you kidding me. Well good thing I can watch E3 on G4 channel this week with no worries. So I can keep my 500 bucks if that is what they charge.

Blogs. Do you mean people like Pastapadre and other people that. Maybe I need to create my own sports website so I can get in one year. It ain't that hard to creat a website. The only thing hard bout it. IT takes tons of hours to get it right nad to advertise it aswell. But oh well I guess I will do like most fans are doing. Is watch it on G4 channel.

Hopefully all of your questions will be answered tomorrow at E3!

I'm sure that Franchise and Presentation are two things that Ian and Co. will be hitting heavily at E3.

Did you really need to quote his whole post for a one-line reply?
