Any way to bypass cutscenes and replays?

[GlennN]

I thought the Game Planning feature was supposed to speed up games. Now, even using the Game Planning for most of my games, I am wasting time getting through cutscenes and replays. Hey, I know a lot of folks love that stuff. To me, though, it's a waste of time. I have a job, kid, etc. For my limited playtime, I want to PLAY. Is there a setting somewhere to turn off the replays and cutscenes? I can't find it anywhere. I keep hitting the A button to move through, but it still is a waste of time. Thanks!

Last year I think they had a frequency slider for that but a waorkaround is to turn gameflow off and keep h=gameplanning on and pick your plays using the gameflow section in the playbook. The cutscenes play in the playbook screen esentially allowing you to bypass them.

I wish man. I hate having to constantly tap A.

I twitted this to Ian Cummings shortly after Madden 11 was released. Asked him kindly if they kept track of how many cutscenes were being skipped, and that it might be useful to address this issue for cutting down game time in the future.
