In NFL2k5 for PS2 there were no video highlights, yet the Sportscenter show itself was still immersive and effective at bringing the mode to life.

You've been behind the curtain, what in your opinion is the reason when seeming conventional wisdom, common sense and precedence isn't applied to the development, design and decision making for Madden?
Objection, you're leading the witness. I don't accept the premise of the question.
