So no mini drills or training

[Nintari]

Once again, we were all duped. Will this years game be better then lasts? Yes. Will it be better then NFL2k/Madden 05? No.

I have suffered through every game since I got Madden 06 at launch with the 360 and I'm just...done. Until the game FINALLY gets to where it was 5 years ago, I'm not buying it. They've fooled me for the last time and all the hype in the world won't have an effect.

Here's to Madden 2011.

You people actually enjoyed training? Those drills were terrible on all systems. They were dull, repetitive, and didn't actually simulate game situations. Hell, all I did when controlling a DB in the 1 on 1 drill was tackle the guy before the ball hits him. I'm a 2K fanboy, but you people are overreacting about the exclusion of an unfun and poorly executed feature.

Huh, the drills did simulate everything in the game, from hitting a receiver on a timing route, avoiding the rush while making the correct pass, playing safety, user catching the ball, avoiding defenders to make a touchdown, learning how to avoid multiple defenders when running.etc.. They were great, alot of fun, improved skills, and it was cool how they progressively got harder.

Dude, would you rather want some other gimmick added to Franchise and have it left the same? There may not be any major features, but the broken franchise mode was fixed. I dont know if its just me, but I would rather have them tune and improve franchise the way it is instead of adding some feature that might not even be used by everyone. Ya dig?

Wait...are they gone completely? Or just in franchise?

Yea but its frustrating to hear the same thing as last year. MADDEN 09 franchise was the exact same as MADDEN 08 franchise. They said the reason it was the same in 09 was because they were fixing bugs and a year later we are hearing the same thing that offline franchise has gone untouched to fix bugs. Thats THREE YEARS (08,09,10) of the same franchise mode! And when I say same I am talking about NO additions.

Well, have you played Head Coach 09? They have the same people from there tuning the mode. That's why I actually trust them this year. We will see though.
