There's a couple things Mike Hockhertz likes to do outside of football. One of them is to play video games. The one he likes to play the most is Madden. He also likes the NHL franchise and has been known to dabble in NBA 2K, but madden is the best because of franchise mode. Well, I should say it used to be the best. The problem is that EA has decided to strip pretty much any depth from the game since about 2012. So that's 8 years of very shallow gaming. No matter how many gameplay trailers come out, no matter how many times the devs say they're going to revamp franchise mode, the same stuff always come out. No customization, no depth in the scouting, no depth to players or their attitudes. It's all pretty flat. Now look at the 2K franchise. You can do whatever you want. There's no excuse for EA other than laziness and profit hunting. And look at where all the development has come in the last 8 years. MUT. That's because MUT brings in money for them so it's easy to keep franchise the same way because saps like Mike Hockhertz will always continue to buy in hopes of something different. But that's the problem. Consumers are stupid, and developers need to make money. So that's what Mike does. Plays and whines about Madden.
