May be ever year madden has something that is just like a true game killer in the game. I have not played a lot of nba live really only the demo of 18 and 19 just started trying ea access on ps4 and I played a game and not really sure what to think but based of the demo I like what I saw. Also I had heard a lot of bad things about lives franchise mode and I did a sim and sim stats are pretty good only thing really off was 3 pointers per game attempts and FTA. Ever thing else was pretty good when it comes to stats. I dont known about trades and FA etc but the sim stats in madden 20 ea access are really bad.
