I liked assassins creed for a little bit, then I just got bored. Its not a game that you could play over and over like some of the other games. i just dont like spending money on games that i know i wont play for a long time. Maddens out today but i heard they dont have a franchise mode and fantasy draft. I like to play offline a lot and that would be horrible if they dont have those options. Was waiting to get this, but maybe ill get madden 12. Plus itll be cheap! btw, my last madden is 08.
