This is the official thread for Madden 2008 Wishlists. You can specify whether your wishlist is for Current or Next Gen. Keeping it all in one thread makes it easier for the EA guys to get ideas.
My wishlist.
NEXTGEN
1) Co-op.
2) Custom Playbooks and create a play in Franchise mode, but without the substitution bugs.

Yeah, and then when the computer does it right back, complain about them breaking Vick's leg again on the final drive. Isn't going to happen. But it's a good wish.

as far as the all-pro vs. all-madden... they should make it so that instead of the players becoming super human on madden, the AI just becomes smarter.
They just need to improve the AI. It has gotten better, they just need to keep moving forward.
I like all the glamorous things soopo i would like
Season preveiw show before the preseason talking about 'can the last superbowl champs repeat' 'The new faces in new places' 'How TO was doing pushups in a girls locker room'
Have NFL Live after every week, or Sportscenter which ever...half time show 'showing whats going right for each team and what they need to improve on'
A Postgame interview with the player of the game.
Revamped Franchise and Superstar modes make superstar more realistic....
umm.. The Draft needs improvement have the commisoner annonce the picks and show the players walking up and holding there jersey....
When a player moral is down have the option to bring him into your office to discuss it with him...have set things you can say to him and have him react differenly to every thing....
Have a cut scene when you resign a player have him come in and shake your coaches hand and stuff like that.....
Also i would like,
Gang Tackling,I would love a difficulty between all pro and all madden just like the others...more injurys to players on user controlled team..this year i had like none.....
Thats about it of course you would have to have the option to skip through all the cut scenes and such but there would be those types of people like me who would love that kinda stuff
Incentive bonuses in contract signings. The ability to sweeten a contract offer with bonuses to be paid in accordance with season performance. I've wanted to see something like this implemented for quite awhile now.
The ability to create plays that will line up a certain position player in another position. For example, I'd love to be able to design a play for the Falcons that would put Matt Schaub under center, stick Warrick Dunn and Jerious Norwood in the backfield, and line Michael Jenkins, Roddy White, Ashley Lelie, and Michael Vick up in a four receiver set, with Crumpler at TE--or, stick Vick in the backfield along with Dunn and/or Norwood. Having the ability to draw up more creative plays that would put a player like Michael Vick into an usual position on the field, either as a ball carrier, reciever, or just a distraction, would keep a defense on its toes.
am I the only one that thinks that idea for that play would NEVER happen?

If I see that they've only got 3 blockers, i'm blitzing 5.

Franchise mode:
I agree with the idea with the roster cuts from 80 to wateva. and there should be more to do with team chemestry( like if T.O is on ur team it goes down) it should be locker room strength. I also think on the next gen version they need to bring fantasy draft and CO-OP MODE I hate it that u cant have 2 players on the same team. And I liked the idea of the highlights at the rnd of the game since they cant use sportscenter use nfl net work w/ Rich Eisen or sumthing. They should have a more detailed practice mode where QBs and there WR knows how the QB throws (ex Manning and Harrison have a 99 rating). The expansion idea is really good. And i think there should be a more detailed combine where u get 2 see the players work out. and the nfl europe thing is cool were u can shift bad players over there to get them better. Also more involved trades like 3 team deals w/ 4-5 players and stuff.The contracts need to be changed there needs to be incentives in the contracts like if a wr gets 80 catches an extra 2 mil 4 him.
Isn't the whole chemistry thing kinda already on there???

I think they should make the practice modes in superstar way more open. Allow the certain player positions to actually staratigize with the AI. Like the WRs and QBs could talk about throws and routes and actually kind of pick your go to play as a WR, even though you dont pick the play. On third down or when you need a score the AI chooses the play you discussed perviosly. The same could be done with HBs and QBs, as well as the offensive line. The co-op mode i think could be taken to a new level (on pc) if they made it so you could run the game off two monitors. So you would have each player have their own monitor as their screen. With this being said it would be soo awsome to be able to play with your sibilings or friends. The thing my bro and i have discussed is how crazy it would be if we could create two superstars for the hall of fame mode. (like say one WR and one QB) and then play like this in co-op mode. I think this would take the game to new levels. The other thing they need to add into Superstar mode is your say in what direction the franchise goes in. Like once you establish your self as the teams star player, come draft time and free agent signing you should be able to push the team in certain directions, like I was Vick on my team type thing. Sway the team into picking your "NFL Buddies". If they increased the relationships between the players and made you actually have a say in who gets re-signed/traded and cut you would have a whole new depth to the game.
i think they should make it so on superstar mode, your ego matters more in games. i would like to see some in your face, argueing with refs type of stuff if you have bad ego. if you have good ego, you could tackle somebody and then help them up or something. i think they add more to the ego part of the game
Historic Stadiums - user could choose to play with astroturf or grass fields
Throwback Uniforms
Different commentating teams - have Madden and Michaels work the Game of the week or Monday night game and have an assortment of other commentators and analysts that will do the play by play.
Halftime and postgame highlights for games played on ESPN, Fox, or NBC using those networks' broadcasters
Pre-2002 realignment division Franchise mode
Have the ability to alter the post 2002 realigned divisions
Pre-1978 14 game regular season mode
Post game press conferences by winning and losing coaches
Allow another mode - ESPN mode - for weekly updates and highlights of game action of all teams, injury news, playoff picture (starting with week 12), etc
yea they need 2 improve the draft REALLy badly...when i import my draft from NCAA...there is never enough players...& 7th round players r bein taken in the 2 & 3 round...they need more players & have the CPU teams draft 2 wat they need not who is the best option...
Make Draw plays not as easy to pick up on All-Madden.
