I hope so too. The social media stuff seems to be a separate thing TBA.

I think a lot of wishlists were asking for the career modes to be streamlined together so an upgrade for one, would essentially be an upgrade for all. That would hopefully eliminate the situation of one career mode suffering because of the resources allocated to another in a given dev cycle.

So now if online, offline franchise and superstar mode have been somehow combined, with various options dictating how they are played, I think that's great.

I picture one big franchise mode where you can choose to play offline, online and just control one player or maybe even coach if you want, leaving all the other duties to the CPU.

I think it will be Kinect stuff per the virtual vs reality comment. Voice stuff can be multi platform, you can buy a bluetooth mic for PS3 and then they'd just miss out on some of the motions if any.

If you are right, Madden isn't going to make me rush out and get a kinect.

I think you are wrong, but I hope I'm wrong, lol. People have stated earlier, the kinect is not that popular. Plus the ps3 does not have the kinect. There is just no way they are going to dedicate that much resource into something that like 5% of people have. It just doesn't add up.

If this monumental change has anything to do with motion gaming.....then Tiburon lost.....no better yet, we all lost......

I'm tired of seeing Madden getting more features then NCAA. Couple of years ago they said they were going to stop that. But now it looks like they are back to treating NCAA like a step brother of Madden.

But anyway.......if it is Kinect features, meh, I have a kinect but I mainly game late at night. I doubt my wife would like hearing me yelling audibles at 1am.

[bichettehappens]

Yeah I imagine "connected careers" to be an iteration of franchise mode, perhaps they simply left out the terms franchise and superstar for the sake of subterfuge and to build intrigue. Honestly, I'd be satisfied enough if they corrected some of the issues with franchise mode from last year that prevented me from playing that mode (uneditable accelerated clock, wonky generated player models, and cut system for instance) and perhaps made a few minor improvements to it. I'm not necessarily clamoring for a huge overhaul personally.

I hope the Gameplay 2 is an expansion on DPP rather than something related to Kinect, as I feel that would be a really polarizing direction for the game to take. Excited to find out though and likely buying on release day either way

I agree that all of the pictures we have seen are from madden 12. If they are from 13 then it's not much of an overhaul though thenfact they never released a teaser or a suprer bowl blog means to me that they werent finished or close to an alpha stage. I doubt the monumental game change is anything kinect based. Just a thought, wouldn't audio fall under presentation?

Re: Madden NFL 13 Features Playbook Kicks Off April 25th, with Presentation and Gamep

I don't think the monumental change to gameplay is going to be kinect base. Not very many people have that plus what will ps3 people get? So it won't be that.

I'm hoping it's similar to fifas physics engine or EAs NHL game, however, I'm not going to get too excited. So far anything that this Madden dev has implemented from FIFA has been a huge let down...Im looking at you locomotion feature from M11.

Although a real physics engine would be great I hope they will never take that one from FIFA and NHL. While sometimes the first contact does look good what happens after that looks pretty bad.

Anyways we won't see a real time physics in Madden before next gen and if they go with something they developed themselves the results will be pretty poor. Programming a real physics engine takes a lot of time and I doubt Tiburon will have that time. So I guess they will just have liscense it from NaturalMotion or Havok.
