    My kids got Madden 2013 for xmas. I tried starting a season but only found "career mode". In career mode, I can create a player (ME) and put him on a team, but then I can only control that player during the games. Is there a mode where I can start a season, create a player, add to team, and then control the entire team/players???? I remember doing this in the older Madden games when I was younger.

    I haven't played Madden in years, but i remember people being pissed off that they removed franchise mode? You may be shit out of luck if that's what you were looking for.

    I'm pretty sure (not 100% sure though) that you can't add a player to a team and control the whole team. But you can control the whole team just like it's a franchise if you choose the coaching option.

    yes it is possible, do what 3bra1n1ac said. Create the player before you start the career mode, then start the career with the edited roster.

    ...no, the latest Madden '13 game did away with the "franchise mode" -- they force you to compete online if you want to play anything that resembles the older versions of Madden's famous "franchise mode". If you have Madden '12, then you can upload the latest rosters and start from scratch as if you're in the year 2013. It's too bad too because this was, IMHO, the best feature of the Madden games.

    start a career as a coach. It's the franchise mode. And you do not have to online.

    ...I suppose this might be the closest thing. But gamers don't like change and "franchise mode" is dead forever.

    gamers? Basically the only game I ever play is Madden, strictly for the franchise mode. I bought a 360 basically just for Madden. It's the same thing. I have no idea what you're talking about that it doesn't exist. Or, I dunno what the hell I've been playing for the last 4 months.

    No, that's something different, I think. You just start a new offline career, and it asks you, I think, if you want to do it as a player or a coach, and you select coach, and then everything is as normal except, as you go along, you can leave your team and go to a new one. So you follow the coach instead of how before your coach could quit on you.

    I'm very dissapointed with Madden 2013! You cant update the rosters without an xbox live account. When you create a player, his rating #'s are pathetic. You can create a decent player in the Player Career mode, but not when using Coach's mode. Pisses me off!
