There was a glitch that wouldn't let anyone post a response the last time I did this, so I'm going to try it again.

My son and I were interested in watching the Xbox play the NFL season against itself in Franchise Mode. We would watch 1 game a week and simulate the rest. PROBLEM : we can't get the Xbox to do it. It will only play against itself in Exhibition Mode, which means that we couldn't compile stats and standings. Does anyone out there know of a work-around?

Fascinating. Are they throwing flags for high speed collisions in Madden on the xBox too? Do the referees have midfield conferences to consider what might show up on the replay should they make a call one way or another before announcing why there is laundry on the field? XBox doesn’t have Geico commericials does it?

I might have to go this route and skip the NFL.

Have we reached the point where we’re now too lazy to play our own video games?

There are, in fact, commercials in Madden 16. I guess they wanted you to really feel like you were actually watching a real game when you watch the cut scenes, because not only do they have faux "commercial breaks" during timeouts (don't actually show a commercial) but there is at least one cut scene with a prominently placed product and a "brought to you by..." line.

I’m actually not a gamwr. My son is. This was just a way for us to get a football fix until the draft. Also, it’s just a curiosity for me to see how teams would do if the season were replayed.
