A photo was leaked on Madden 13's "Connected Careers" mode, which will feature mock Twitter updates from real journalists, ESPN personalities, and much more.
Writes Joe Robinson of ESPN Playbook:
To add to the storylines, Connected Careers will add constant virtual Twitter feeds of 13 sports journalists, meaning you’ll read the thoughts of Skip Bayless as he rants and raves about how this “Joe Montana kid will never make it as a big-time NFL quarterback” before the draft. The journalists will even break stories based on what you’re doing in your career. So if you’re the coach of the Raiders and you start scouting quarterbacks, Adam Schefter will tweet that “Oakland is leaning toward taking a quarterback in this year’s draft,” alerting everyone in your league to your plans. This makes scouting and the draft process a lot more exciting.
I think this is a great feature to add to the game, as it will make it even more realistic. Madden 13 is really turning it up a lot of notches over Madden 12. This is gonna be a real good game.
