I agree, the wait times were just awful, the stat tracking was unpolished. It was a good first effort I thought and was looking forward to them continuing to build off of that. I think something like this, combined with the card opening, upgrading etc., may be the sweet spot between two generations.
Unfortunately, the card opening games are what brings in the money for sports video gaming these days.
I think it's kids that grew up always having a franchise option in their game. I remember when stat tracking and the ability to play a full season started in games like Tecmo Super Bowl and Baseball Stars. Man, I spent my youth playing hundreds of seasons. Now that is just taken for granted, these card opening games are what franchise was to kids in my time.
