Official Madden 13 Xbox 360 Online Franchise Thread:Stat padding? Never heard of him.

I haven't put the disc in yet. I've been hooked on NHL for the past week. I'll give it a try today.

Also, let's try to get some Forza in!

Let me know how it is. Best buy has a sale, 40 but with a gift card if you purchase

We could play...a round of golf!

What is a Best Buy shopping event like? Is it the nerdiest speed dating ever conceived? It sounds almost like a low rent trade show.

I'm always game for a round of golf in Tiger Woods. I played at least 30 rounds with my roommate last year. It's always a good time, especially when you create your own Golfers and "level" them.

Didn't you midnight launch Halo 4 from Gamestop? The Best Buy shopping event has extra specials on things during the night. Like they had an extra 20 percent off Wii U games for the night. However the jerks didn't carry NG3 so I left with nothing.

Best Buy shopping night was more like everyone was hovering around the tablet and phone section night. I did get a chance to see the Kindle Paperwhite up close, and now I want one to replace my old Kindle device.

Gotcha. I get emails about those special events but I just always assumed it was bullshit 10% off for card holders.

I did go to the Halo launch but I showed up at midnight, got my game, and got the fuck out of there as fast as I could. And let me tell you, I will never, ever do that again.

What's the best deal on Far Cry 3? I'm very close to pre ordering this game on Steam tonight. Might look elsewhere though if the price is right.

Just noticed I can't use my amazon card points or credit money from Win 8 on the digital download from Amazon. Lame. They need to fix this. Steam it is.

So Madden gaf.... I see on Amazon a PS3 250gb bundle w/ Uncharted "dual pack" and Infamous "collection" for 200$.. is it worth it? :D

I think I may jump on that since it's cheap, I get two good games, and I'll be ready for The Show next year.

Yup!

You could be playing PSASBR right now!!

Buy a Vita as well.

The Show is worth it for offline modes alone. Road to the Show is awesome.

Join the Playstation family, McNeily. We'll all be buying PS4s for next gen Madden anyway. Might as well make the switch now!

No way. Xbox 720/1080/360x2 ftw


edit: DAMN EXPIRED
 
I bought my PS3 just for The Show. The rest of the first party games were just the icing on the cake. I still buy most of my games on 360 though.

I just want a baseball gameeeeee

Oh well. I'll wait it out. No need to buy any of the other bundles right now since I won't play the system anyway.

I'm in a pretty rad league right now. Tons of fun. My team kind of fell apart though. Injuries are absurd.

Does it have real players? I haven't read up on it a lot but I know gist of it. It seems like it'd be a lot of fun with other owners.

No, it's all fictional players and teams. They have been running this league since 2003 or some nonsense and at the rate of a new season ever 3-4 months, all the real players would be long gone anyway. This is my second season as an owner.

But yeah, you can use real teams if you want. If you have an iOS device get the iOS version. It's logic is abysmal but you'll at least get a feel for the game.

Yea I knew there was either real players or real teams. Either way, I think it'd be a lot of fun to play GM.

It's intense. So much shit to do. Our league has 32 real owners. The email chains are absurd come trade deadline and free agency. Hundreds and hundreds of emails.

We had a couple great seasons where I was commish. Then Frankman arrived. He flipped out, desperate to run and ultimately kill the league.

That's a shame. You should reboot the league. I'd want to join in with the Nationals!

Maybe we can ask some Madden GAF bro's... That way we can ultimately boot them out without any reason before the league starts.

See now that sounds like a lot of fun. I hope I can get to something like that if I play.

I intend on having a league of some sort. I'm just not going to fill the league for the sake of filling it or receive a billion messages from anime pillows.

Well keep me updated with that league. I want to play some baseball next year. It's been three years since I bought a baseball game.

I'll be happy with 6 people who play consistently, as long as none of them is Frankman.

It's going to be something similar to that. I'm also going to invite Ramirez as well, just to flash my Milton Berle sized cock by cutting him from the league.

If the league isn't full, does the CPU take over the other teams?

I thought it was a girl at first because of that and the chicks voice in the beginning.

Yeah I tuned into one of Cosmowrights live streams of windwaker and saw the hands and nail polish and thought "can't determine gender". Then he spoke.

So what's the word on these last 4 games:

Sok/eznark
Livewire/smokey
dm/wellie
crow/splat

I know wellie is out of town, but are the other games being played?
