Luke wants to. I have no clue how you would institute this rule so ill let him handle that process!

Just dont make post draft free agency wide open until you have people make selections in whatever order you decide.

 

[bluemax]

Or they didn't like the Seattle weather. :/

I haven't had a single bad weather home game.

 

[bluemax]

Madden 05 and 06 (on ps2/Xbox) were amazing. Bluemax doesn't know what he is talking about.

Also I'm upping my offer on Hagan.

I was referring to the first two on 360 which we all know were awful.

That was 06/07. 05 never came out on these current consoles

 

[bluemax]

So I was off by a year. Yeesh.

I hate that I'm at work and can't up my offer to Hagan. I hate all of you.

 

[Splat]

05 was no 2k5!

The UDFA thing will be tough to manage. I'll need to sign role players to fill out my roster, I'm sure many others will need to as well.

I only had one shot at bringing them back. I offered them 2 to 3 times their asking prices and multi year deals and they turned me down.

Game is trash.

That's crazy. Leopard had the highest production in the NFC that year and he wanted pennies. I doubled that offer and he signed with me for like 6 seasons.

 

[BigAT]

Please, even Madden '13 is no 2K5. Not just the best sports game ever made, the best game ever made.

Actually, Out of the Park 2007 holds that honor with a 96 metacritic score.

I'm going to take it a step further and say it is the greatest piece of entertainment in history

OOTP is great but I'd really love for an MLB the Show game to release with functional online play. Between the Show and Madden I wouldn't play any other games.

 

[FrenchMovieTheme]

The show is god awful online

 

[bluemax]

I feel like the Show is still inferior to the final year of MVP or High Heat on PC. Console baseball games have always felt inferior to their PC counter parts for me.

 

[TheDrizzlerJ11]

MVP was the best.

 

[rinse82]

Damn, MVP was so good.

 

[McNei1y]

MVP 2005 was incredible. I can't believe I was stuck with 2k for 8-9 years. I just bought a PS3 today so it should be here by tomorrow. I'm looking forward to The Show next week. I've been waiting to play a quality baseball game for some time now.

I hope you're not planning to play online.

 

[eznark]

How long has it been since you guys played the show online? Last year was smooth and the year before was fine. It hasn't been total shit since 2010.

 

[McNei1y]

I hope you're not planning to play online.

It would be nice if they somehow fixed it, but no, my main draw was to just get hooked with a franchise mode and play all throughout the year.

 

[Mrbob]

I know The Show gets dumped on for terrible online. Rightfully so, I may add. I still haven't played another sports game which is close to being as awesome in create a player mode than Road to the Show. Sony could ship that mode alone every year and I would be happy.

 

[CB3]

I did enjoy road to the show.

 

[rinse82]

If SCEA could get their shit together, having an online franchise with The Show would be amazing.

 

[eznark]

The only thing that has killed the Show franchise in past years is Frankman and total lack of interest.

 

[McNei1y]

When you guys say its horrible, do you mean that games don't connect or is it just tough to read pitches?

This. Plus, waiting for him to sign in after buying his copy from a third world country.

[eznark]

If you have a wired connection it was as good as Madden last year.

 

[Mrbob]

Sometimes both. I didn't play a lot of online last year, but it seemed pretty good when I did play.

If Mr. McNeily wants to play online games, let me know. I'll be down to play.

Lag was shit. Connection issues at times. League had issues with games not counting after being played or not being able to reset them.

I was under the impression that Sanjuro was starting a league this year which I want to be a part of. But next Tuesday, I will definitely play some games with you!

I'm definitely going to start an offline franchise with the Nationals as well as a second baseman in the Road to the Show mode.

That was Frankman's fault. He kept fucking up the schedule/advance.

 

[CB3]

I enjoyed going into the show thread last season and shitting on frankenman. That was fun.

“So they’ve gone halfway,” he added, giving the example of Microsoft’s supposed next-gen approach, “With the next Xbox, you supposedly have to have an internet connection, and the discs are watermarked, whereby once played on one console it won’t play on another. So I think the generation after that will be digital-only.”

Get ready.

I'd pay $15 a year for RTTS mode on Vita as a stand alone downloadable game. I never finished a full season of anything but RTTS and only on my PSP.

 

[eznark]

"Supposedly"

He sounds like he doesn't know any better than anyone else.

I hope he is right, I'd love to only have to get one console.

 

[goldlion054]

Is there a reason I can't get access to free agents?

 

[BigAT]

Is there a reason I can't get access to free agents?

Probably because of your coach's shitty name.

 

[levious]

Before you joined you were considered by the game to be on auto pilot. After the next advance you should have access to bidding.

 

[CB3]

When is the next advance?

 

[TheDrizzlerJ11]

When is the next advance?

3 1/2 hours

 

[CB3]

Probably because of your coach's shitty name.

This post is also true

 

[CB3]

Seems like I am gonna have either a lot of cap room or a ton of moderately price free agent new comers in Madden 25

 

[Nightz]

Probably because of your coach's shitty name.

French Movie? COMEON!

 

[Rorschach]

I'm tempted to post something that will get me banned in the Onion thread, so I'll be gone for the night. I'll come check if Madden texts me that it has advanced.

 

[mastershake]

Post it here where you are safe! You'll get it out of your system and feel better for it

 

[FrenchMovieTheme]

I'm at work. Cb or Luke can web Vance

You could have web advanced in the time it took to make this post!

Luke is about to advance

Vanced, who won the Gary Hagan sweepstakes?
