Yep you also can't Modify Players Names like before. Trades are more lopsided. Switching player positions is harder too. So its like a lower quality franchise

RE: OT: Madden 13 out today!!
Best Buy replaced my scratched copy no questions asked. I played one game over lunch.
I think it's a little on the lame side that we can't edit players for franchise mode. My thought being that we couldn't import draft classes anymore that we could at least rename or edit the incoming drafts madden has preloaded.
On the positive side, i feel just after one game that it is an insane improvement over previous maddens. (i played close to 30+ seasons the last two maddens so i have a few hours logged) The running game isn't easy like it used to be, i can no longer exploit 1 or 2 passing plays. I threw far more interceptions than i am used to

The running game is harder? I wasn't very good to begin with so I'm in trouble!

To me it seems harder. Most times i run a hard nose running attack and dink and dunk offense. I used to be able to rip off 50 yard runs with peterson in previous maddens but not this one
You also have to put some thought into passing the football. You can throw wild and crazy passes and expect good things to happen like in previous years.
By far, IMO this is the best madden ever....except for maybe madden 04

I have to agree with the INT's. With Newton I have thrown 4 ints and 1 td but then I traded for osweiler as a backup and he has no ints and 10 Tds. Its just weird

You guys should give ultimate team a shot. It combines Madden and card collecting. It's by far my favorite mode.

+1, I just hate the fact that you pretty much have to start out with trash players and play a WHOLLLLEEEEE lot to earn a good pack of players.

I'm lucky to have played it last year so I got 2 free Legendary packs and like 7 other bonus packs. And I had a few free packs on side accounts from last year as well, so my team is ok. Maintaining contracts is my only stumbling block to this point.

This is all I have done since I got it lol My roommate walked by and saw me messing with my roster and said "My God you even collect cards in a video game" LOL Contracts are a pain for me lol Plus it upset me you can get Fitz but he cant be contracted
Now Peyton Manning throws 4 ints a game and maybe 1 TD lol
