Official Madden 2012 Thread

To kickoff Madden 12, Ian Cummings will have a blog on Madden 12 at halftime of the Super Bowl. Not sure exactly what he will cover, but it will not cover franchise.

They need to make online franchise a legitimate mode, the fact that they advertised it, or even called it a franchise mode, was BS.

Surprise onside kick. Nothing like leading the run up with the big guns. Stupidest thing I've ever seen.

We have also re-aligned our management structure to have one "General Manager" sitting atop ALL of the football games within EA SPORTS to ensure that both teams are aligned on core technologies and pushing the envelope for innovation.
I don't know why this was never done before, as opposed to having totally different gameplay for different versions of the same sport.

If it's the same team, I sure hope they actually make some changes that benefit the die hard Madden fans and not 5-6 yr olds.

Last years game in my opinion (Only rented it) was 2 steps back.. They were trying to simplify the game so much it was insulting to people who have followed this game for years..

In my opinion, they need to scrap everything from 11.. Go back to 10 and build from there.. 10 was a great game..

They've done a great job the last few years of cutting the BS out of the games, for the most part, then they throw in surprise onside kicks.

I disagree, 11 was similar to 10, but after the last patch it is a pretty good game.

I don't think I played it after the patches.. I rented it about a month after it came out..

What did the patch fix?
