Hey NTE, you ever play the Quarterback Club games on the N64? I remember the one I had, I think it was '99, had a really interesting mode where you played historical moments in games. One of the toughest was trying to lead a Broncos comeback in that one SB they got smoked in.

My next door neighbor had this game and he really liked playing it. I didn't care for it so much.

How about Bad News Baseball for the NES? I would also suggest the original Baseball Stars for the NES as well. Baseball Stars from that era was well ahead of its time in some aspects as it gave you Create a Team options where you can select from several pre made logos and jerseys that were associated with the logos, you could name the team anything you like (only 16 characters) and you could name your players anything you like (only 6 characters). You could fire and hire players. As you played games and won you would earn money to sign the players to new contracts that would give you anywhere from 1-6 points randomly to power up your players any way you wished. The games controls are simple and easy to pick up. You could even climb the fence to rob home runs.

I’ve being curious about this game. For the longest time I wanted to make a new Blitz/NBA jam like game. But they seem to be against making a simple arcade sports game. They seem to want to make them too technical instead of making a simple pick and play game. That you can learn on about 5 minutes. I don’t even mind the loot boxes. But they keep trying to hard to make a cool game instead of making the game fun to play.

[@Nightenstaff]

You need to go back... back to when football was football... when it wasn't just Madden this or Madden that... it's time to go back to the NFL 2K series (Dreamcast versions suggested).

[@Mike-ye6xi]

This is actually the same game 2k was talking about they just didn't publish it but I like the game with the wildcards and clock off using points to determine wins on highest difficulty i only wish you could edit the base teams colors and edit team rosters but atleast we have another option besides madden and where is the 2k nfl game give these guys some credit for trying

[@JonPITBZN]

I'm sure I'm an old man too, but I'm not really into the "opening packs" mechanic, either. If they're gonna hit me with microtransactions, at least don't hit me with RNG too and let me buy the players/skins/things I *actually want*
