Integration of Head Coach into Madden

[Pringles]

O.M.G I remember that game for a 1 year development cycle it sure had a'lot of stuff in it. if they would have used the madden engine for animations and put in game anouncers and cutscenes of the opposing coaches i think it would have sold more but that is just my thought.

I assume to add things HC09 had Franchise mode had to be taken apart. They did and now we wait for May 16th for info on Franchise Mode.

Bigger rosters for off-season
Fixing the Injured Reserve
Fixing the injury system. Hopefully going to the "Wear and Tear" system from HC09!
8 man Practice Squad
Restricted Free Agency and Exclusive Rights Free Agents
How the CPU handles there roster and depth chart during the Pre-Season.
Free Agency! HUM signing players
The Draft
Trades
Hopefully Players attitudes and egos
Hopefully Agents to deal with
Hopefully a Scouting Staff
Hopefully a Medical Staff
Would like to see a Special Teams rating for players

The list goes on and on. No, I'm not asking for too much. Just what I see during a NFL Season.

Head Coach is like Einstein and Madden is Jessica Simpson.
Head Coach is far more intelligent and Madden looks quite a bit prettier.

It actually angers me at how much better HC is than Madden.

Played the first Head Coach game and didn't like it, I guess because I couldn't actually play the game but from what you guys are saying I might have to go spend $10 and get HC 09 to see what the fuss is all about.

Just the NFL draft portion can take about 3 hours. That alone should have been put in.

I wish they would set up something we could play with online like TeamBuilder.

Maybe PlayDesigner or PlayBook?

Something to help build some hype in June/July?

I love games like Head Coach but I bought the game and played it like twice. I never got into it for some reason. Maybe because of all the menus?? I dunno.... but I do hope they go nuts on the franchise of Madden. Its all I play. How ever no matter the game or the lock out Im thinking this is a NCAA year for me s Ill have to check in here to see how you all like it...

I still play HC 09.

Imo, an absolute wonderful game. To bad it couldn't have been continued.
