There is no such thing as a return in gaming. Once package is opened the only option is to trade it in, but then again EA already got their money and it doesn't impact bottom line. So many avenue streams for cash flow with today's gaming, the only thing that matters is straight sales. EA could put out a remake of tecmo super bowl as the next madden and it would still be profitable.

Come to think of it...Tecmo super bowl with updated rosters doesn't sound that bad.

Dude, calm your tits. I don't even have the game, yet. I'm asking so I know what I'm purchasing tomorrow.

If you play in online leagues I think you will really like it. Offline franchise, depends on what features you like.

I've played two games in the preseason for my offline CCM at ROLB and i'm sooooo bored of this game already. I understand i have to earn my starting spot but to play 15 mins of nothing but punt, punt block, fg block and kickoff... I don't think i can play long enough to see my guy start. Not to mention the stats are ridiculous, my punter gets subbed out and i punt 10 yards at a time.....what were they thinking with this mode seriously?

Just put the old franchise back in so I can use my CAP and play offense.simple.

Very happy to see this. Just as NCAA did last year, Madden took leaps forward and took a lot of risks, and is being rewarded with it. This gameplay engine is already giving me the best game of football I've played and there is a lot of room to build on it.
