Re: The longest you've played franchise mode

I never play more than a season or two when I actually play games, as playing against the CPU just isn't very fun for me. However, I normally like to simulate all the games I play, and just act as a GM. I really enjoy the offseason and trading, and all of the GM actions. I almost went all 30 years in Madden 11.

Re: The longest you've played franchise mode

If i had to guess, I'd say 5 seasons. I played 3 years in Madden 2011. I usually play NCAA longer. Currently on either my 3 or 4th season in NCAA 13 already. Of course, NCAA seasons are shorter and it's a little more interesting because if you lose even one game, BCS title shot is badly damaged so you end up trying again next season.

Tied my 8 season record from Madden 11 with both the Raiders and Jets this year but got fired before getting to season 9 on both.

6 or 7 years in 2K5.
I had a 28 year Dynasty with PITT on NCAA 2010, would have played longer but my game kept freezing while advancing to the week (started making a backup save ever since lol).

I can't remember my longest Madden Franchise, but I normally restart them after 6 or 7 years. Once the current NFL stars start retiring or dropping off I lose interest.

Re: The longest you've played franchise mode

Played 12 seasons of NCAA 12 playing every game with Virginia Tech.

I played 10 seasons in Madden 08 (I think, is that the one with the radio show?) but didn't play every game. 16+playoffs+preseason is just too much for me to consistently do. I like the pacing of NCAA better but this year I like madden better so it's a tough call.

My dad is somewhere around 20 seasons with Marshall in NCAA 08. He puts it on a difficulty where he can win every game handedly. I guess he just likes blowing off steam and seeing Marshall win. He refuses to play the new one I bought him because you can't move your dynasty.

Re: The longest you've played franchise mode

Nice topic!

I am a numbers nerd and I try and play as many seasons as I can. Haven't done it in awhile tho. I started up again with Madden.

I played 10 seasons on Madden 04. I had a RB rush for 12,116 and 126 TDS and a WR stat line of 622 rec, 10,859 yards and 101 TDS.

I have played 11 season in NCAA 06 and 12 seasons on NCAA 07.

I played 12 seasons on College Hoops 2K8

Its fun comparing my past players with other players that I have had. As you can see in my sig. I keep all my stats when I play multiple seasons. I know, I am a nerd. haha

Re: The longest you've played franchise mode

I'm on my longest one now in M12 at 2 and 3/4 years. Never really made it past 2 years in previous games. CC has been great for me, and really helped me get immersed in the game. I know it has alot of critics, but I was never one to spend time editing player numbers or taking the time to control all 32 teams. I get all the people who do that, but I just couldnt get into a game like that so it's not been a big deal for me that it's missing. But what is there, I love.

Re: The longest you've played franchise mode

I sim the entire way through all the time.

playing? Id say the longest was a few years back like 22 years in.

this game in about year 5, I expect to play it all the way, as the storylines of the rookies gives me enough along with some of the new elements of ccm. but again, I play HC 09 and enjoy that(not the game aspect of it) so take that for what its worth
