 Two aspects of Madden 10 that had remained unseen until now have been the websites for Online Franchises and the Madden Shop which is a HUB for downloadable content. Operation Sports has images of the Online Franchise website and functionality while TeamXbox has laid out the contents of the Madden Shop. While the OF website is lacking in some areas such as the no ability for user generated content it has many of the basics with standings, schedules, and stats. It will also provide the possibility of completing tasks such as changing depth charts and drafting from the web. It should be enough to keep the owners of most franchises engaged outside of just playing their games but for the more involved owners they’ll be looking for another outlet such as independent forums to conduct league business. As anticipated the Madden Shop has turned out to be the central location for accessing downloadable content. Similar to NCAA Football 10’s dynasty boosters there are several things that could be purchased to provide advantages as seen in this screenshot. There is also the ability to purchase the code for Online Franchise (that comes free in new copies of the game) or Elite Status which opens up a new online lobby and ability to play All-Madden ranked games. My opinion continues to be that as long as everyone is on a level playing field online (and that means it must be blocked from Online Franchise) then DLC such as this isn’t bothersome. What concerns me more are the advertisements that have appeared increasingly distracting as witnessed in the videos. |

I'm sure the sites will be buggy at first -- much in the way 2k's were ... but from what I can see, they're definitely doing some great things that EA's Madden games have never seen before. At least, not with the amount of depth we're seeing at this stage of the game.

I think that is for people who rent Madden or buy it used.

I am guessing that the online franchise mode will be a mess for the first month or so after release. Sadly it's just the way things work.
By the middle of Sept it will probably be pretty cool.

Truth is I am just killing time during my last hour at work. I don't know who you are, and I don't care. I've never heard of you before today. Just think twice before insulting someone on a message who wasn't even talking to you. Shake on that? |

I'm 26, with a 2 yr old daughter...
where are you even getting the info to fuel those terrible insults? lol.
The initial joke was meant to be stupid/childish... not to get your goat and provoke you to sling insults back in retaliation that are based solely on incorrect assumptions...
get your shit together son... lol.
