i would imagine its more sim oriented. You actually are calling the plays like you would for an nfl coach. You probably dont have a say in prices of concessions or stuff like that like you do in owner mode.

Sounds like maybe you can call the plays on your headset? That would be awesome if it works right.

Maybe it's just me guys but, personally i think EA should fix the problems in the Madden game before bringing some other football out. The spawn games are not working properly, glitches are still in the game, roste updates take to long (unlike cpu, where they have eveything instantly). Online ballers are constantly being over looked. I could go on and on about things that need to be fixed in madden. As a strong EA supporter, why should i waste money on another game when the best selling product they have isn't up to par?

It's about time we hear something about the "management" game from EA. :) I thought the game was scratched for a bit. Sounds like a sweet game.

Only problem i have with this is what is the goal of this game. I know prolly eventually win the superbowl but this seems likes an idea they should use for baseball(if they had the license) first instead of football. You know be a baseball manager call people from minors and demote people to minors and so on.

its an entirely different team working on this game. It has nothing to do with the guys who make madden or ncaa.

I think it would be cool if you could make your own gameplan and schemes. Like make up your own defensive and offensive playbooks and integrate it into your team, instead of using a NFL teams playbook. Actually make the team yours.

I'll be checking it out. I like sim/management type games. Sounds promising.
