I would be embarrassed if I put out this game. The developers continuously promise us changes every year to improve franchise and yet here we are with almost the exact same thing as last year. Face of the franchise is awful. The "cutscene" prior to the college semi-final game made both myself and my high school buddy invisible and then wouldn't even let me play as MY CHARACTER for the game! My friends and I tried for 30 minutes to play the new game mode The Yard but we couldn't get it to work. One of our games would always crash when loading into the game. My friends and I have played a franchise together since madden 09 and last night we decided we are moving to NBA 2K.
