Yea, they are pretty similar from what I have heard. And with today's news of not upgrading franchise, Madden 11 will not be purchased this year by me. I will continue my Buffalo Bills franchise this year again. Maybe I can get to year 7 (year 4 right now). You should be ok.

Using editors, you can import custom draft classes, modify progression points throughout a season (and hence control the amount of progression), "fix" coach slider settings automatically so simmed stats are more realistic, and use a 3rd party tool to perform the entire draft with superior AI to Madden's own.

I don't think Madden franchise gets any better than M08PC + mods.

Not Madden 11...

Madden 05-07 (Xbox). Loved 'em.

I totally agree. Football Freaks.com is the place. The mods are great and allow for some really realistic stats.

Madden 05 is HANDS DOWN the best and deepest madden game ever( not to mention competition existed during that time. lol)

Madden 11 has no significant updates to the franchise mode!!! This equals NO BUY FOR ME

I LOVED LOVED LOVED Madden '06's franchise mode. The roles made everything seem so realistic. I logged way too many hours just simming with random teams trying to turn them into contenders. The ability to switch teams mid franchise certainly helped as well.
