Madden 2004 - Create-A-Team

[Mark E]

Ok, I don't like football at all, but this create-a-team feature where you make an entire team, their stadium, their uniforms, and logo, then draft an entire roster of players for your new squad sounds hella-fun.

 

Does anybody know if this is going to be standard across all the EA Sports titles for '04? I'd pick up NHL 2004 in a heartbeat if I thought I could design my very own Newfoundland team .

That does sound cool.

 

Unfortunately, I'll be boycotting EA sports games as long as they support the per-game subscription rate for online play. The Live business model is the only one worth supporting, IMO.

I believe this was done in last years NCAA series. Create a school, stadium, logo, and all that jazz. However, I believe you had to recruit all new players though. Not exactly sure since I never tried that option of the game.

You're correct Dean, this is an extension of the feature in NCAA from last year, applied to the Madden franchise. I'm just hoping it spreads. I wasn't 100% on what the draft entailed, whether it was all new players or if everybody went back into a draft to be picked. Since you apparently have to toss out a professional team to put yours in, I assumed you could get existing players.

 

Either is fine though, I've garnered endless amusement from creating faux-Russian names for hockey players in prior NHL games. I am the type who gets endlessly amused by having a goalie called Nada Golgetzin.
