It's like the first year since 2004 where they've actually improved the product noticeably.

they still list g blache as our d coordinator (and his stats suck), simmed games still don't sub players properly (no fatigue) and you can still relocate from washington DC to washington DC though. so all the bugs from 2001 still exist.

What system are you playing it on? That sucks they still don't have G.W. in the game, if he was he'd have to be one of the higher rated defensive coaches out there, i think in 06' Greg Blache was rated something in the 60's, which sucked. In 06' Al Saunders was rated an 80 on offense, which is pretty screwed up. I don't care about relocations in franchise mode, my longest tenure in franchise mode lasted about 7 years, and in that name, no franchises relocated, but i'd imagine it would suck if they did.

always PC. there's a 3rd party program to stop relocations anyways, just like there was a program to adjust injury sliders and edit players. playing the los angeles grizzles isn't really all that big of a deal either.
