And he can. The only thing that's "lost" is the presentation aspects in franchise mode...because the NFL isn't celebrating the 51st anniversary of the AFL. He can still use the uniforms in franchise mode, and everything is still available in any Play Now games he chooses.

Was there a disclaimer anywhere? Geez that kinda blows if not.

Why do people have to pay extra for uniforms that should be in the game for free? Not to mention EA is missing a bunch of throwbacks that 2k had 6 years ago.

There are numerous other threads you can post (and have posted) that in, don't derail this one.

Wrong, wrong, wrong, and wrong.

EA is NOT giving me what I see on Sundays because I see the AFL and ref uniforms on Sundays but I can ONLY get them if I pay extra.

EA wants EXTRA money for what I see on Sunday.

It's amazing how inconsistent some people are. You're O.K. that you won't be allowed to use the extra presentation feature you paid EXTRA for after year one in your franchise since that's "realistic", BUT you're NOT upset that EA is charging EXTRA for uniforms that you will see on Sunday this year. "Realistic" would mean that the game would ship with the same uniforms I'm able to see on Sunday, they bundled them with an upcharge, so it's NOT realistic.

If you think it's O.K. that you can't use the presentation feature after year 1 in your franchise if you were consistent you would be UPSET that you can't use the AFL uniforms that you will see on Sunday unless you PAY for them. By the way I think that if EA is CHARGING you for the extra presentation feature you should be able to use it any time if you want. Because EA is being just as inconsistent as you guys. The uniforms I see on Sunday are NOT included in the game. It's in the game, for a price.

Some of you guys who just defend Madden and EA at any and all costs should look at how you're twisting and spinning yourself into pretzels.

Yes. Thank You. My point was all about people using their own common sense.

I know common sense can be a rare commodity on the Internet, but that's what I was getting at.

Also, to the poster who asked if there was a disclaimer...No, there wasn't. Did there need to be one?

"DISCLAIMER: The AFL Presentation will only work for Season 1 of your Franchise. After 2009, it will no longer be the 50th anniversary of the AFL, and as such, subsequent years will not be presented as such. Sorry if you didn't do the math."

^I mean, honestly, that's would you would've gotten, with probably the exception of the last sentence.
