      I'm loving the betas on games now. Good as a demo and help fix bugs. I really hope EA does this for Madden. With so many issues last year it took way too long to make franchise playable. After waiting so long I stopped caring. Not sure if I'll get Madden this year and if I do I may wait awhile. Tired of the many bugs and problems - many of which are tied to the joint of franchise and myplayer mode crap that I don't care about. I don't like the RPG nature of franchise mode.
