These show off the "Freestyle Superstar" enabled players.

If you have any requests, post them here. I'll try to get to them over the weekend. I obviously won't be able to get to them all, but I'll do what I can.

I really like this feature. It shoud seperate the stars from the average players. One thing I am confused about is I thought you could only have one guy on offense and one guy on defense have these attributes? Some of those screens seem to suggest(like the Piston screen) that you can have multiple guys on either side which is cool. Can you change these from game to game I wonder? This could provide lots of replay value and coupled with the player progression could make for a cool dynasty with guys getting better and worse as they age. Different guys becoming your star, and star becoming only average after bad years etc.

Steve. I understand if you cant answer and hopefully this isn't going over the line, but can you comment on how the CPU plays when you play them. Do you see differences when you play different teams, do they run different plays? Again if this can wait for the Q & A its cool, just checking. Thanks again for all of the screens!!

That's how it was at first, but they changed it that you can have as many as possible just depends on player ratings, I'm pretty sure that's how it is.

Yeah there can be as many freestyle superstars as there are players which is great because it really adds seperation between medicore and great teams.

Steve,

I don't think there was anything on position lock in any of the pictures, so
I was wondering if the position lock is accessible before you start a game, or do you have to pause during the game and find it in the options menu? Also, is it more or less the same same as last year?

To be specific, screenshot requests.

Q&A will open next week, after the movies go up.
