Mini Madden Marathon (MMM)

[Evan]

JBB is coming over tonight and we're going to play Madden '06 on PS2.

I've played I think 8 games (about half vs. computer and half vs. my roommate). I'm 3-1 vs. the computer (on whatever the default setting is) and 1-3 vs. my roommate, so I'm not that good.

JBB hasn't played Madden in "a while" and has never palyed the 2006 version which has a new system for passing that makes it a little tougher.



What do you think is an appropriate betting line for the game based on this info? JBB suggested he should be a 10.5 point dog. I'm still undecided.

Please establish a betting line for us. Also, we'd like other people to bet each other on our games because it will be funny.

Obviously we need to know what teams, and if there is booze involved.

i think you suck for playing on ps2 and not xb360!

A lot should depend on your method for picking teams as there is a huge advantage to getting a top team.

Also the passing cones make the game insanely more difficult for the newb.

roonitown,

the best method for picking teams imo is having one person pick both teams and the other pick which of the two they want.

I think you suck for endorsing EA's completely scaredy-cat move of buying up the NFL rights, solely because their product was outdated and crappy, with bad programming practices, and sega's game blew the pants off of madden.

However, I would have to know the teams picked before I could figure this out.

btw, the new passing system, I think, doesnt make things much harder unless your opponent is a madden beast, or he chooses the ravens, with their amazing d.

Just turn off the new passing system, it's retarded, as human beings don't have three hands. Also, the game thinks Vick is horrible, don't use him.
