while i got a quick taste of outside the park baseball 17 and moved on, im back at it again.

last time i did a couple of moves and the cubs won it all. this time around im rebuilding a small market organisation (pirates) from the ground up.. the game is fairly deep and the customisation/modifiers are pretty solid... i enjoy it. there is a learning curve for sure, but its easy to pick up.. im thinking about getting ootp 18 but i havent really fully explored 17 yet.. perhaps ill skip 18 and wait for 19.

2022 cubs had trout and harper.. yeah yeah.. but y not.. they didnt win it all 9only simmed one yr with them before moving on) but the 2020 non trout/harper squad did

Working through the last Dark Souls 3 DLC. Makes me sad we aren't getting a new souls game for a long time. Hoping they remaster Demon's Souls 'cause I got a hankering to replay it and don't want to dust off the PS3.

Demon's Souls remaster would be awesome! They might unveil Bloodborne 2... Never know.

is Madden 08 the one where you can make your own offensive plays. If so, that was the best Madden.

Madden 08 was the shit.

Fuck EA for not having the vision to build what could be an empire with a fully realized NFL simulation (hosting full service online leagues complete with commissioners, custom draft rosters, trading, adjustable rules, websites, forums... I could go on and on.... think mmo or online shooter crossed with Madden) instead of taking the easy money with annual roster updates.

Its appalling what they have done when you consider what could be.

i cant recall, id install it but i cant find the disk.. idk where i put it... i already uninstalled 07, i just wanted to play a couple of games with the glennon..

i remember 04 let you create your own plays, its the one time i can remember doing that.. too many exploits with plays i created, my friends wouldnt play me if i used my playbook after realizing no matter what d they called nothing worked.. ..

That is the problem with Madden. They have never been able to fix the AI to a point where it is difficult to exploit the game so they have chosen the easier way of restricted what you can do as a player. Even still they have to have situational boost of the AI players so their extremely carp AI does not look so bad. They have had a decade to fix the AI and it has not changed much at all.

I wish someone would make a non-licensed game with really good AI and some sort of point team build system that could be played online or solo. That would be great. I know people really like NFL licensed products, but Madden/EA have been extremely stagnant since they picked exclusive rights. .

I recently tried out a classic.... it is called Rapelay? Anyone ever heard of it?

I jest.... but srs turn ur browser on private if you look it up.

It kind of boggles the mind that a studio of people collaborated and published a game like that.

:cringe:

It's really damn good. Only knock I can say is some of the dialogue is bloated. And its $10 cheaper on PS3.

i liked 4 a lot, but after 80 hours or so just hit a wall and playing another minute of it felt like a chore. mostly because the dungeons were so bland and repetitive. i hate when that happens... loving a game only to suddenly not want anything to do with it.
