Good question. One that I don't have the answer for. Ideally madden would be backwards compatible and that would solve your problem, but if it's not...Well then we might have an issue. How much would you get for your xbox? They're ripping you off most likely, just keep the SOB!

I guess my only advice is that with an overlap of 15 days between the 360 and the league ending (45-30) you could just wait that long till you sell your xbox, since I doubt the meager value will drop in that time. ;p I understand this might be a problem though. Maybe FMT will steal some of my thunder and come up with a brilliant solution.


Edit: Wow, we're both replying. Judging by the size of my post I A) Care more than FMT and/or B) Have more free time

I would assume Madden will be B/C, something no one has mentioned is the fact that saves won't carry over, which really should make a difference anyway with the league.

I know...it's killing me! I wanted to get in a few practice games in...we play Week 2 and i have never played you, i feel like my pass D is going to get a workout, that's for sure.

DCX

Don't worry, i'll give that D a workout week 5.

 

[AZ Greg]

Thanks for the answers guys. I only fear that they might not make Madden 06 work with the 360 in hopes more people will buy the 360 version. Hopefully it does work though. If not I guess I can hold on to my Xbox for a little longer.


P.S. Poor Truelize you get the Packers and Ahman gets taken out for the year and Ferguson is out for a month. The next roster update is gonna be killer. If you want to scrimmage Packers vs Packers I can show you some things that would hopefully help you with league games. Let me know.

 

[iceDragon7]

I'm down to playing 2-3 games in 1 day but then again thats only because I just left my job for a new one leaving me 2 free weeks.
Even then, my schedule is better than my last job so I'll still be able to get my games in on time.

keep an eye out on the main page for a poll im about to put up. the winning vote wont necessarily dictate my actions on the subject, but perhaps it could influence it

Oh don't worry, i'm up for it...so will D Hall.

FYI, I already told FMT but for the rest of you: I'm out of town in Cali for a week for business, so I will miss the scheduled Week 2 and probably Week 3 games. I will make them up as soon as I get back next Sunday night (30th). And I vote to NOT unlock the rest of the season games immediately, obviously.

 

[Rorschach]

Well, since xbl is down, I'm available after 630 PST tomorrow. I hope to see a reply from Cloudy even if he's not playing. Just let me know.

CLOUUUUUUUDYYYYYYYYYYYYY

Xbox live being down sucks so bad. I expected to spend the day playing with my new Panthers and what do I get? Live down for 24 hours. =/


Their is acctually a lot to do outside but now I'm down $200 after going out... =(

 

[Fifty]

Finally the douchebags called Rogers Cable decided to come to my building and fix the internet they broke because they split my connection too many times. Have I mentioned I hate them? I also hate paying them money. Monopolies are fun!

Ok, I think I've partially calmed down. Bob, can you play tonight?


bonus edit: If anyone here is a fantasy basketball fan, PM me. I have a couple spots left in a GA league

 

[Lonestar]

Live back up yet?

Play tonight CK? Even though I feel like crap, and all I want to do when I go home is go to bed, and play some GTA:LCS

It's working.
I'm having trouble getting into the Xbox Live dashboard but I just logged into Madden Live.

Edit: Ok nevermind, Xbox Live dashboard only comes on for a few seconds then goes out.
I was able to get on madden Live but no one can get a game going.
All the Lobby chat rooms are full due to this.

I think League Leaders is broken. While I did have 3 tackles with Roy Williams, I didn't record them. The site lists him as having 8, and a couple of pass deflections.

Also, Had a good rushing game with Kevin Jones and he is not listed in the leaders. Weird.

Can't say I was really all that shaky in my game with Lone. One of those ints was my fault, though I think I could have completed it. I threw it behind Pollard who had Reed running in front of him, but the ball didn't go far enough back and Reed picked it. The two other ints were just super-plays by the Ravens D. Sucks I have to see them again. See, I don't rely on TE cheese, it's just that Shockey was the best player on my team last year!

[Lonestar]

that 24-14 score HIGHLY disguises how close the game was. I had 3 botch passing attempts, 1 I know for an easy INT to give him the ball inside my 20. This is what I get for a 2 week layoff and hurry up league entrance. Not impressed at all with my Defense. Sure, I got some picks, but 1 sack, and I couldn't stop the little outside runs, just like I've never been able to stop those things. And Lewis is running exactly like he is right now, pretty "meh"

HERE COMES THE RAVENS, WOO WOOOOO!

 

[Matrix]

Yikes Ck thats a scary schedule You got a win against me atleast in week 11

I have almost the exact schedule Welle

:lol What cheap persons garage are you getting your service from?

Road runner called me today after 3 days installing my Cable and thanked me for choosing Road Runner high speed internet and asked if I needed any help or had any questions.
I was worried at first since I thought there would be a problem with my billing info.

Same company you have took 2 weeks to come out to my house after getting the runaround on the phones for days. I feel bad for the dudes I had to chew out to finally get some help out here.

Anyway, FRENCHMOVIETHEME: get me an opponent (even if it has to be you...didn't want a loss my first game out ) or this game will never go through. I've read the NBA thread and this thread, and I don't think Konex will play. Looks like he doesn't like chasing after people to play their games? Well, I don't either. I did it most of last season and sometimes it's understandable, but he doesn't want to play and I don't want to force him. I'm cold enough as it is and the longer I go without games in, the worse I'll get. Tomorrow is Wednesday (the deadline) and there's no sign of him wanting to play.

Thanks.

PS: My schedule is hard. :'(

 

[Fifty]

Problem solved folks. He's playing Ice. That doesn't mean Konex is off the hook, but it does mean we can advance tonight. Since Konex has said he doesn't care, I can't see him being bothered by this so it should be ok

 

[Rorschach]

Way to push the wrong button, Rorschach....I HATE YOU!

 

[BigZep]

Uh, when can we play our week 2 game? I wanna get it outta the way before i go into a hole to study.

 

[Fifty]

Uh, when it advances!

EA? Why do you fuck me up the ass? I'm not gay.....I don't like it. Stop with the ass fucking.

Shaun Alexander does not get hurt on a pussy hit like that. Bob is easily beatable people.....he just needs your #1 option on offense to get injured after dominating the first half. What a joke. I mean really now. At least let me lose on my own terms, madden! This game will be the death of me

 

[Fifty]

I unlocked week 2. I hope you all die.

 

[Wellington]

Want to kill me tomorrow, Ice? Fucking Harrington is garbage. Hurry up and give me back Garcia, EA!

Lonestar let me know when you wanna play.

Well, I have all the stats written down, so we play what was left of the game. You want to call it the half and give you the ball? (so we end up playing 2 quarters and that would be game over, then we add the stats up of the first and second half...which I have)
