I just bought the game and I'm going to crack it open now. Goodbye caring about anything ever.

Except football on Thursday.

This week the game is on Wednesday. Unless you're talking about the dingus-dingleberry regular season opener next Thursday night.

FYI, Doughty absolutely blows in man coverage. I should've cut his ass.

Sounds like the game is realistic.

lol had Doughty lined up against Henderson (Saints game. Don't ask me how that happened) and Henderson blew by him on a streak play and Doughty was like 5-7 yards behind him. Not even close.

I was going through the highest rated players, and Marshall Yanda of the ravens is rated in the top 25, and apparently Daryl Smith of the Jags is a big name guy, because he's rated higher than Fletcher.

Hilarious.

Another explanation? The New York Giants [URL="http://www.giants.com/team/roster/marcus-thomas/e1e3e603-c3d7-48dc-bd09-49cc0eda775a/"]don't have a picture for him, either.[/URL]

Anyone play the Ultimate Team? I have several coach cards and can't find the "collections" set for them. Is there a coaches collection this year and I'm just missing it?

Re: Madden '13 player ratings
 

what did they change as far as franchise mode?

i'm seeing lots of complaints that they made some heavy changes.

Most of the complaints so far have been from dummies who think they took out franchise mode altogether. I see now EA added a pop-up when you fire up the game that explains franchise mode is now in connected careers.

The major change is no fantasy draft option and no importing rosters from NCAA. Both of which I really don't care about personally.

I haven't made it to the offseason yet, but as I understand it all the offseason stuff is still there, draft, free agency, etc.

It's funny, for years people complained how it's been the same old game, a $60 roster update. And now they finally make some noticeable changes and what do you know... people complain about it. They can't win.
