      The game looks fantastic. The thing that is painful about this is that the guy who is talking in the video hasn't been working on Madden's franchise mode, or Madden at all. The guy seems no nonsense no excuses if Head Coach pans out to the standard he seems to be creating for it I will be very impressed with his abilities.

        The producer talked about future players in the draft. That there would be "the next Elway"! A small player from a tiny college!

        Now, is this scripted? Will there always be a "next Elway" type QB?
        Because since Elway was drafted in 83 & retired in 1998. There has not been another Elway type QB that has come into the NFL!

        Each Franchise you play you deal with a totally different situation.

          I'm sure the draft classes will be preset just like the original NFLHC, if he made a comment like that. They almost have to be for the NFL network guy to say soundbites about them regarding the draft. But....that doesn't mean the results are always going to be the same. If this guy never reaches his full potential (due to injuries, etc.), does he even become "The Next Elway?"

            I agree. Also, by doing it this way they can ensure a better variety and realism from the draft classes than they can from classes generated by NCAA.

              Looks great. I'm buying it.
              Quit making your stupid YouTube videos and start playing the game.

                If this was any other company I would say you could be right. Problem is EA doesn't do things like this.

                The draft class sounds like it will be scripted or at least the first couple of years. I would love to see 6th rounders become Brady or Terrell Davis but I'm hesitant because of EA's track record.

                        this looks amazing if only they could incorporate all this into madden or at least let the two game function side by side using the same save files

                          That looks a lot better than I was expecting. I'm definitely going to pick this up.
