The writing, mo-capping, voice acting, music, and ambiance was much better than anything that I thought EA was capable of producing, and he did an excellent job directing all of that. Longshot just isn't a football game, it's a point-and-click adventure game packaged up in Madden, but I don't think that's his decision -- that would be someone higher than him.

Longshot was excellent especially for the first time being implemented. Whomever was on that lead nailed it.

The Head Coach team had something. CFM should have followed their lead and could really be something special by now had they done that years back. I'm don't like to sim games but I had a blast with HC even though it wasn't perfect. The foundation was in place for an amazing franchise experience.
