    ncaa 06 is the best version they have done and i would kill for updated rosters on that

    I downloaded a current roster last season for PS3 NCAA 13 although im sure 14 is more common.

    i prefer 14 despite the horrific lack of a strafe button simply because coach leveling is awesome and its the most streamlined recruiting system they ever came up with.

    sure wish there was a strafe button though

    was this the one where you could commit ncaa violations?

    I'd put the O/U that he spends $500.00 a year on micro transactions. $250 for 5 upgraded players and another $250 on cosmetics.

    you could discipline your players accordingly and had the ncaa meter

    like the ncaa would come into town and give you a bowl ban because hb #32 was late to a team meeting and you didnt suspend him

    the one with desmond howard on the front

    you never could commit violations. the players would commit violations like "skip class" or "fail an exam"

    I for one am shocked that dbl would form a viewpoint and create "facts" from nothing than his own thoughts and then spend pages arguing tirelessly for them.

    The cost means there's not many kids on the game. It's mostly adults.

    Wow doesn’t have 12mil subscribers. That was its peak in like 2009 or something. It’s fallen drastically since then and Blizzard hasn’t reported sub numbers in years.

    I’m not an expert but games like WOW require a lot more from their servers than something like a matchmaking system for a sports game.

    Says the man with a straight face who plays video games for 10+ hours a week and who pays thousands of dollars to get a leg up on video games and dress his pretend players up in fake clothing and shoes.

    hilarious indeed.

    you do you.

    Why am I not surprised that dbl is a whale that these game devs have shifted their monetization schemes toward. More money than sense.

    no what im asking is do you have a regular group of friends that you group up with or do you spend all this money on a multiplayer game that you play essentially by yourself

    We have a squad. I rarely play when it's not the 3 of us playing. I haven't been on since last Wednesday bc one of the guys I play with went on vacation.

    so you pay $50 per character to play 4 hours a week and during these 4 hours you have to be in game chat....so you can be an obnoxious fuck talk shit to the other team? rather than being in a party chat so you can communicate without the other team knowing what youre about to do?

    We play comp 3 v 3. There's not much shit talking, honestly. Do I have to be in game chat? No. Am I always in game chat? No. Why do you care what kind of chat I'm in? I dont know.

    your justification for the pricing model is so you dont have to play with 8 year olds

    if youre playing with a squad youre unlikely to be playing with 8 year olds

    if youre in party chat you will never have to interact with 8 year olds

    so i care so i can point out a glaring flaw in your busted ass logic

    Made a QB named Uncle Rico on one of the last NCAAs. He had maxed out arm strength and accuracy, but no field IQ. You just load up and let him throw it over them mountains, man.
