Re: Madden 09: How will you Franchise?

Like a few others here, I control all 32 teams. I am more about creating history and continuity than taking over one team, which I already have to do in MLB:The Show (and had to in MVP as well).

That way, I can play the more compelling games. I almost always play my 'Boys, but at least I am not limited to just Dallas games, when potential barn-burners and ratings busters like Eagles-Giants, Jets-Pats or Colts-Jags comes along. And every once in a while I like to drop in on a battle of also-rans, when they are evenly matched, like 49er-Raiders or Lions-Browns.

And how I play or IF I play depends on a lot of things, but most of all TIME. Employed, married with children leaves precious little time for stuff like this, plus I also have baseball and college football seasons in full swing. But often I will take a week's slate and "Supersim" them through the first three quarters. I can then jump in and take over a team for the fourth. Doing this 14-16 times a week keeps things fresh, since I am a different team every time, and the week can be played fairly quickly this way, allowing me to keep current in the other sports and still fulfill my husbandly/fatherly duties.
