    Even though his knee was shredded and the risk is entirely too high, as a Louisville and Miami fan, I would kill to see Teddy sent home to South Beach and throw dimes to Devante Parker again. Plus, Teddy is super easy to root for.

    He cheers on other teams.

    Random question I figure I'd ask here. Are madden games still fun to play? Haven't touched one in almost 10 years and tempted to pick up 18.

    Granted I haven't tried one in a few years but they have never felt as good as they did in PS2 gen, Madden 2004 era

    If they ever recapture the feel and relative realism of those games I will become a recluse

    I still have nightmares about Madden (and to a lesser extent NCAA) from my time at EA. Both games actually caused a meltdown that involved CQC testing to have to do a 48 hour marathon session. NCAA 01 right before going gold, a bug was discovered that made all the players real last names appear on the game while playing. We never figured out how it happened, but you can imagine the shit storm that would have caused.

    later that same year for Madden, 1 hour before we were to notify development that Madden passed CQC testing, we discovered a 100% reproducible hard lock on every console when you win the super bowl. Being that this was pre-online gaming time and couldn't exactly push a patch, plus having a hard date that the game had to be in stores, we were forced to do a 48 hour marathon testing with a new build to ensure that bug was squashed and no new ones came up. Fun times. We were already bitter with Madden as is as our Manager told all of us in customer service that it was mandatory to do CQC testing on this title over the 4th of July weekend, then promptly leaves for his 4th of July vacation. Haven't been able to bring myself to play Madden since.

    NCAA had a sweet spot at that time where the recruiting was engrossing and fun but not too complicated

    I watched my friend do it a few years ago and it looked like a headache

    The exclusive license for EA was really the death knell for those games. I always preferred Madden to 2K but they did some gameplay things better and you know the competition forced EA to work to stay ahead

    If you have a friend that comes over once in a while that will play or someone you grew up with that'll play online once in a while then you get your money's worth for sure.

    I last got 16, and the loading times were abysmal. Would take like 20 minutes to get into a game when we were only trying to play fast while wives got ready to go out.

    It's fun but just be aware there will be times you do everything right and the AI is gonna say "Nope, fuck you, I win." Especially when the AI goes in to no huddle.

    So many kid-rage moments for me when the AI would say "I intercept next pass"

    Became available at 7am this morning. For some reason Hard Knocks is one of those shows that you can't watch until the next day. I'd probably riot if they pulled this shit with GOT.
