Agreed...I used to always play friends head to head in best of 7 series when playoff modes were available. I never knew why they took it out, sometimes you just want to jump into a best of 7 series without dynasty and season and all that. Sounds like this could be the return of playoffs only mode, and I like that they track the storyline of whats happening in the series, that would be great for the presentational aspect of the game.
