      Why don't game designers realize people love options? Look at NHL 09 you can pick out so many variations of your equipment, but how comes you can't do that in Madden or NCAA? Ridiculous

        i would have to say Jay Cutler. His arms look REALLY skinny when in real life he has a little muscle on them.

          Hi Micheal,

          I have not played the '09 version of madden since you guys left us PC users out in the cold. I played the '08 version last.

          But anyway, I'd like to know if these are addressed which I consider to be very relevant details to up the ante in realism.

          Are there multiple shoes/ shoe types? Can a player change these etc. (presumably via editor in the franchise at all times).
          Is it possible that helmets pop like they used to? And see the guy go pick up his helmet etc. would be really awesome.

          Also, please include many different scenes for winning the superbowls and stuff. The same celebration year after year sucks.
          Also, we need the cheerleaders back. Making the cheerleader squad somewhat editable in the franchise mode would be awesome too (like a stadium upgrade, maybe its too much micromanaging but give it a shot).

            Also more cleats and gloves options would be beneficial. I think the message is clear: we want expanded player customization options. Players who play your game long-term are much more drawn to the customization aspect, so making sure this particular aspect is up to par will be beneficial to all. Take for example Pro Evolution Soccer's player editor, and make it pervasive.

            A gazillion of options = good. More cleats, helmets, gloves, shirt styles, pant styles etc. And making it easily changeable as per the user, at all times.

            Tnx for reading. At least consider some of our ideas for implementation. I'm close to buying a new playstation3, and may just be drawn to your game again if the customization aspects is up to par. (not to mention the rest of the elements of the game, such as the line officials measuring a 4th-and-inches, cheerleaders, halftime shows, etc.)

              The key to all of this is putting the FULL EDITOR in for us users.
              And also allowing us to edit players on every team during a Franchise.
              I dont wanna edit ratings (as much) after a franchise starts, but I wanna be able to Edit Names, Jersey Numbers, and All of the Body Specific Physical Attributes of Every Player on Every Team.
              Great point! Just make sure that it doesn't erase their draft information in the process. Off topic, I don't know if this happens to everyone, but when I edit the jersey numbers and equipment on players I can no longer see their draft selection information (just says free agent). I hate that so much, to the point that I try not even adjusting these things.

                Re: Tuning Individual Characters

                the playing field needs to be bigger/wider and the players longer & skinnier

                no way does a desean jackson "look" like he is 5'9" 180
                he looks like he is 6'3" 240 with super quickness.....lol

                  Oh yeah. I don't remember editing anyone's ratings the past couple of years, but the last time I did, changing their ratings changed their salary. If this hasn't already been removed from the game, PLEASE DISCONNNECT THE RATINGS & SALARIES FOR EXISTING PLAYERS. When we edit ratings, it's because we disagree with your ratings, not the salary.

                    Terrell Owens is a bit too small in the game, IMO.

                    That's all I got right now.

                      Does anyone at EA realize that the Manning brothers have had the wrong facemasks for the last 4 years in a row? I'm neither a Colts or Giants fan, but if I was having to adjust this every year would bug the hell out of me.

                            Donovan McNabb is BALD now - you might want to update his Face-Card in the game with his new smooth-glow bald head, instead of that mini-fro he had.

                              General Comments:
                              I agree with the posters on here that say that a full-body editor should be added to the feature set. BUT I wan to also stress that is is still VERY important that the team gets the players looking as accurate as possible for the default rosters. Reason being, when playing online games, we are forced to use the systems roster and settings, so we can end up modifying all of these players on our own local rosters, but once go online...

                              Specific Comments:
                              I mainly use the Redskins when playing, so I can comment on them the best.

                              Jason Campbell
                              <img src="http://blog.pennlive.com/patriotnewssports/2008/10/large_jason_campbell.JPG" />
                              Any way to add this "half-sleeve" look to the accessories. Currently there is a "half-sleeve" for the bottom half of the arm, but not the top.
                              Also, he's a bit slim overall, in the game. If his bulk could be upped just a bit overall, that would be great.

                              This dude is a BIG imposing monster of a football player (6'3" 284), yet on the game, he is not nearly as imposing looking. he basically looks like another tailback, very close in size to their back-up HB, Ladell Betts. As you can see in the following photo his size in relation to the rest of the Redskins backs...

                              <img src="http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1077/969738235_91babf5dd6.jpg" />

                              Anyway to get this helmet in the game?
                              <img src="http://cache.daylife.com/imageserve/0frR2EKgmHgfC/610x.jpg" />

                              One other item I'd like to address is the glove/accessory color. We normally get blac/white/team color as options. Any way to get a secondary team color in for those accessories. Mostly for gloves and bands, as I believe there are restrictions for the shirt sleeves, not sure though.

                              Just for example, the Skins have the White/Black/Burgundy option, can there shade of Gold, be added to the color tree?

                              Thanks for coming here and asking for feedback, by the way. It is much appreciated!

                              Peace.

                                I'm all for refining the gameplay and making it the most realistic experience possible but there's another part of the real NFL which really makes it fun and attracts me to watching it too. It's the personalities, the drama, and just players and teams getting notoriety around the league and in the media. Adding some of this is what would give this game some life. I know there's been some efforts here and there but to me it needs more life added to it. It just doesn't feel alive like it's lacking a heartbeat. I liked the radioshow from the dynasty mode a couple years back. Stuff like that gave the game more life. I just have a hard time playing a game that feels repetitive and yes, lifeless.
