    THIS year would be great, but...

    ...if not this year, definitely next year's Madden.

    I've been playing Madden 08 on the XBOX and in Franchise mode I am able to do some things I'd like to be able to do on the 360 version as soon as possible.

    1. I can choose any game on the weekly schedule and play that game ie. MY TEAM in Franchise is the Jaguars. So I've been playing their game each week but for the heck of it I choose 1 other game that week (Giants vs. Cowboys) to play. And since I did a Fantasy draft it's pretty cool to see who are on the other teams after I've chosen their game that week. Helps keep things fresh is a good way to say it.

    2. I can choose which uniform the opposing team wears in the games I play. And there is a view of the entire uniform while choosing.

    3. I can edit any player in the league w/in my Franchise. If I remember right, I can edit everything about them except their attributes. I really like this capability.

    There are others things on last gen, too. But these 3 have stood out to me as changes where we went backwards on current gen for some reason. I'd like to be able to have more freedom in Franchise like we used to.

    Anyway, like I said...if not this year's Madden, then next year please.

      I always find myself constantly telling you, "It still could be in this year's Madden!" Forget about Madden NFL 11, worry about Madden NFL 10 right now!

          Though I don't know if we can choose the CPU uniform, knowing that we can mix-&-match uniforms this year would make me think we actually have a preview of uniforms this year.

            Yes, I agree. I do think we'll be able to view the entire uniform for our own team this year. But it's cool choosing the other team's uni as well, instead of having the CPU team have the default home or away uniform every time.
            Here's to hoping.

                  I am pretty sure you can do all of these in 10. Not positive about #3...would have to follow up on that to be sure, but the rest definitely work as of today's build.

                        Re: THIS year would be great, but...

                        Can you confirm 3 at some point?

                        That is the only one that matter to me. It was heavily talked about in another post not to long ago.

                          Ian, thanks for taking the time to reply on this thread. And yes, if you can confirm #3, that'd be great.

                          Keep up the great work.
                          (They should give you a raise next year...like $1.05 per hour extra or something like that).

                            I didn't try this at CD, but I hope we can choose dark's vs. dark's. I used to love doing that in 2K5. I'd put the broncos all-blue's vs. the Steelers dark's, it was nice. When I saw USC do it against UCLA it reminded me of that.

                              #3 is probably the most crucial one when it comes to franchise players IMO.

                              I know alot of things have been fixed in general by the Madden Dev's....but this option (which we havent had in next-gen yet)
                              is a MUST.
                              With so many new sliders, and setting available to the users...this editing option would be a big MISS if it's not in there.
