First off I'm a madden vet and I love to play franchise. The thing I always hear is that madden needs to improve franchise and they go on and on. Which they is true compared to what it was on the ps2.


Anyway, I just like how the game feels when you make the transition from pre-season, regular season then the playoffs. For example when you play your first regular season game after the preseason sometimes you notice that your players get tired quicker but as the season progresses your starters can play most of the game.


Another point is that, im not too sure but it seems like the CPU plays different in the pre season. But when the season starts everything gets more "serious". Then once the playoffs start, it has a different atmosphere, maybe because in your mind you know its one game.

EA can obviously make the presentation better for all 3 phases of the season but to me the little touches help with the realism. Thanks for reading.
