EA Sports College Football

[Jay Bee]

It's time. When are you getting it? Debating on buying Deluxe so I can try it earlier, but don't have a lot of free time after work and Pickleball league play this week.

[wadesworld]

Preordered it. Will be busy with that when I return from the honeymoon.

[Skatastrophy]

What platform do you guys play on?

[MurphysTillClose]

Will be downloaded to the PS5 later today. Can't wait.

[jesmu84]

Desperately want to play, but I don't own a PS5.

Guess I'll have to fire up the PS3 and start a new 2014 dynasty

[Jay Bee]

PS5. Holla

People still play video games after 30?

Is that a problem?

I actually just sit around waiting for the cold embrace of death.

Not really, it just seems like odd to play kids games at this point.  ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

You probably shouldn't classify them as "kid's games."

What is an acceptable hobby?

Being condescending about other people's hobbies also seems odd at this point ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Going to church and calling in hospital bomb threats

Having not played madden in like ten years, I'm having a ton of fun with this game. It definitely has some weird choices and glitches but it's somewhat delightfully delirious. It gets the gameday vibes very right. The way it's set up with lack of huddle and such make a majority of the games you play seemingly gravitate towards shootouts. But for me, that's fine.

If I had to give it a rating, prob 8/10

Huh.

Sorry, not into crochet

[Jay Bee]

I really like the game so far, but I may be Wojo. Great recruiter, but....

Haven't actually gotten to the off-season yet — wondering how upsetting the transfer portal will be

Between work and Pickleball, haven't found much time to play... but hopefully Saturday and Sunday can get biz

[Shaka Shart]

Huh.

Go away the kids are talking

Got roped into some more pickleball a couple mornings ago JB. What level you sittin at now? I was handling some 4.0s with relative difficulty but people are getting progressively better all around!

You probably shouldn't classify them as "kid's games."

My nearly 90 year old Grandma is great with an iPad and uses hers often.  Her GP, after a recent age related neurological assessment, recommended she get and play more games, if she was so inclined.  And not high brow stuff Sudoku or brain teasers, but stuff like tower defense games and other "kid stuff" to keep her hand-eye coordination sharp and whatnot.

But then again, I had an 40 something coworker who scoffed at people playing rec league soccer/softball/etc... cause playing sports was for kids.  I guess some people think adults should only read books and have elevated adult conversations about philosophy.

Pickle ball isn't a kids game.

Pickle ball isn't a kids game.

Tell that to the 17 yo who kicked my a$$ on the court last week :/

I'm horrible. Been playing through injury, but the biggest issue is dumb decision making. I'm not much better than 3.7.

Vs less than 3.5 I am confident but can absolutely suck it up and be humbled at times. But generally I'll be all good. 3.5-3.7 opponents, I'm solid. 3.7-4.0 I'll be feeling good soon but need to make some refinements and get healthy. I'm fine playing 4.1-4.2 ppl but I'm not that good yet. After that, I'm far away.

I see a "soon" path to 4.0, but breaking past 4.1, 4.2 I would need to change some things dramatically.

Very humbling game. I can do some things on the court that many can't, but also am the king of stupid decisions at times.

Mostly been playing in 3.5-4.0 "high intermediate" leagues and sessions and it's where I belong, but hoping to move to 3.75-4.25 soon and see if I can up my game. 4.0+ leagues I'd get pummeled right now. I like playing 3.7-3.9 folks right now the most.
