To me, this is a huge problem. Others of you? Maybe not so much. But let's hear it: Has the 'closed' nature of Connected Careers turned you away and/or cooled your enthusiasm about Madden NFL 13? Sound off!

Turned me away after reeling me in all within the same month lol.

However, I will rent it on release day and if the gameplay is too good to pass up, then I guess I'll be finding me a 32 user league this fall...

CC sounds awesome but I kind of been here already, I somewhat know the story beforehand.

HC09 had a AWESOME franchise mode, prolly still one of the best concepts available on consoles today.

BUT the game was not for me (not to mention the awful gameplay) because the franchise mode was "closed". I couldnt modify anything outside of my own team and that was even limited..

Teams wasn't smart enough to maximize their talent, far too often I've seen terrible QB's start in all 16 games stinking up the league with stats like 7TD's 30 Ints..It became no fun and non competitive because of the incompetent AI and the lack of a humanized feel.

CC sounds great but I am worried..

Being "Closed" in a franchise mode is what kept me away from FiFA and NHL for so long despite the ravings of the gameplay throughout its next gen years.

I still haven't given those games a change even though things are probably different as of date.

Customization is huge for me personally. I'm sure my fellow College Hoops players know that. 👌
