Same concern. How disappointing would that be.

EA shouldn't just spoil the SB for people like it's just the same as an exhibition/reg season game, unless it really is that way in Madden 16.

Now this I do agree with. Now if it was a pivotal game to send a team to the playoffs it would be perfect. I never liked that you could just select super bowl presentation either. A playoff mode I'm all for......

Just make these huge games feel special.

All I asked is the option to hit the "start" button and exit the opening scene. Please don't make me waste five minutes going through this...

Noooooo!!! My beef with this is that for whatever reason it would never save my training camp stats and would reload this scene too many times. After that I'd have to setup my settings and so it was very annoying to me. Did anyone else have that same problem? Steve is there hope that that won't happen again?

Well there was that video with Antonio Brown and Big Ben recording for madden, So the Steelers are a given. For the other team I'd think that it is one of the teams from the cover vote. Gronk's Patriots are in the AFC, so it's probably the Giants or Cardinals. It seems most likely that it would be the Cards for a SB43 rematch and the fact that they're two good teams. However ODB and the Giants are more popular

I actually enjoyed this intro very much, but it should be a bit more in a different direction IMHO. I think it's a very good step in the right direction. However, with that said, I can see why there are people who have issues with this.

1. Do not make this an intro mode, and better yet.
2. Do not make this a "MUST" to play by not having a bypass option.

Constructive criticisms would be better placed here folks than saying it's "stupid" "a let down"... because it's presentation that people want, and/or would like actual games to have. This is a great thing to have that could lead us to it.

So a constructive feedback from me would be is.

1. Turn this into an actual mode that has ACTUAL and maybe FICTIONAL scenarios of the NFL. Using NFL lore games? NFL's Greatest games? Bad Weather Games? Something similar to madden moments or flashbacks.

2. Lets throw some extra icing on the cake by maybe allowing people to earn virtual currency, cards, players, teams, achievements/trophies? Make a purpose and a strong intent for people to play a cool thing like this.

If they force people to play this with really no payoff, and have it glitch really bad like last year. Then I can see why this neat addition to madden could do more damage than blow this presentation thing up into something really special.

One last note. Don't make it soooooo scripted. Keep it a football game that makes this really interactive. You could do wonders with this.

Do like EA UFC and have Goodell come on and say mean things if you skip it, but then let us skip it.

Oh man it better be fixed. That was so frustrating, especially if I had an online league game scheduled and when I fire up the game and get forced to go through it.

Every screen and cut scene needs to be skip-able with a button press.
