Around SBN: Notre Dame's Turnaround: How Have The Irish Done It?

So, any fans of gaming out there will know that Madden 10 is coming out in August and this past week held the E3 Gaming Convention (during which M10 was showcased). Here are the bottom ten teams in the game at this point as far as overall ratings are concerned:

23. Tampa Bay Buccaneers 74
24. San Francisco 49ers 73
25. Jacksonville Jaguars 71
26. Oakland Raiders 71
27. Denver Broncos 70
28. Kansas City Chiefs 69
29. Cleveland Browns 68
30. Cincinnati Bengals 67
31. St. Louis Rams 66
32. Detroit Lions 65

Remember, the ratings are of course subject to change based on how the season progresses. I know Madden and virtual ratings mean nothing, so I want to say that I am in no way using this as a realistic barometer of the Broncos. I just wanted to throw it out there and see what everyone thinks. (Extra Info: Denver was rated 84 at the release of Madden 09 - 17th in the league then. Of course a whole season and an off-season has happened since then and ratings may be factored differently.)

You can see the rest of the team ratings by visiting the link. Again, just information...wasn't trying to make a point or anything.

Well, the FAN in me

says “wtf mate” but the logical human being says “yeah, that’s about fair”

I mean, in the eyes of the MSM, we’ve dismantled our team, for better or worse. That’s ok though, next years ratings will be quite different I believe.

Yeah, unforutunately I agree

…but thank goodness for roster updates :)

It’s sad to see where the AFC West is right now…at least “Madden-wise”. Three of the four teams in the bottom seven :(

I won't be buying Madden 2010 this year...screw them. :)

Haha

WOOOOOOO … I guess I can say that….maybe.
(Even though the real reason is that I’m saving my cash for other games and/or more “important” things in life)

But … uhh…. YEAH SCREW THEM! haha

Actually...I am broke and hoping I have an income and a job by November....

My only desire is to own Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2.

I won’t play any other game…COD 4 and 5, mostly just 4. :)

It’s an obsession…one that is taking a back seat while I find a new job. You have playstation3?

If so, my moniker is Zapparulez…hit me up.

Zappa, I'll be getting in touch. TODAY.

Let’s play some hardcore on COD4+5 tonight.

TripleUltraMega is my tag on there. See ya in the lobbies dude.

Also

I just figured out how to copy video onto my computer and then post it to Youtube…

I recorded a game yesterday afternoon and put it on youtube. Bad sound quality, but I am a total novice. I had an okay game, even after a horrible start.

You really must divulge your copying of video secrets :) Or at least where you got them...

As for the gaming … I see you are a PS3 owner? Well that doesn’t translate well for me :(

by phantom818 on Jun 8, 2009 7:40 PM MDT up reply actions  

Zappa...

Sorry to hear you are experiencing some financial stress these days… Just wanted to say chin-up and I’m sure something will come through soon. Things always end up working out eventually.

Thanks.

damn...

and I was thinking about getting my first madden game (for the Wii) since like 97. =/

by tunga77 on Jun 8, 2009 1:21 PM MDT reply actions  

just do what I do

go to “manage roster” then edit the players and make them all 99’s.

It’s fun that way. Then Kyle Orton can NEVER throw a bad pass, Marshall will NEVER drop it, and Dawkins will record 11 sacks in a game. ;)

by Joe Medina on Jun 8, 2009 1:25 PM MDT up reply actions  

So …. how often do you do that? Haha. I could totally see guys like Nate Webster or something picking up enough slack to make the HOF with that strategy. And speaking of that, I’m sure the Hall of Fame is LOADED with Broncos if you do that during a franchise. But hey…nothing wrong with that :-D

That’s pretty funny though…making Kyle Orton ‘godlike’ (oh boy, the video game terms) and all. Doesn’t that make it depressing to watch games though when the real life counterparts don’t perform so well after you’ve made them almost perfect in-game? :-P

by phantom818 on Jun 8, 2009 1:44 PM MDT up reply actions  

Nate Webster is among the first to be cut whenever I play....

As with a myriad of other players who are no longer on this current team.

Of course. Dawkins screwed me up since I was the star safety on my newly minted franchise. lol That was Madden 09 though…I won’t be buying Madden 10….can’t afford as I’ve already said. All gaming monies is to go towards COD 6…if there is any monies. eep.

If I don’t have to sell my PS3 by November. :/

by Tim Lynch on Jun 8, 2009 4:20 PM MDT up reply actions  

NO NO NO!

It’s MODERN WARFARE 2! Not COD 6! Come on now! It’s a DIRECT SEQUEL TO MODERN WARFARE! That’s why some of the videos didn’t even have “Call of Duty” in front of Modern Warfare 2! AHHHH!!!!!!

(Only joking of course. Pretending to be one of those “insanely wrapped up in games” fanboys who argues on forums all day is quite fun. Too bad I don’t have the time….or willingness for that matter.)

oh have faith good sir.

He will perform as I have made him perform in Madden. It’s gonna happen!

No seriously though, My attention span in Madden doesn’t go far, I’ll get through maybe 2 seasons in franchise then I’ll dump it off and play exhibition games and a wee bit online too.

Mostly though, even without adjusting my rosters, I love scoring 70 on the Raiders every time I play the game. I never run out of ways to beat them…It’s wierd. lol

heh... or play as the Bears

gasp

I KID I KID I KID… but it might be tempting. ;)

btw… has anyone here played Madden on the Wii? Is it any good? How about compared to the traditional way Madden is played?

by tunga77 on Jun 8, 2009 9:40 PM MDT up reply actions  

Madden on Wii is a joke.

I’m sure if you spent a long time learning the controls and such, it’d be more fun. I spent about 3 hours playing with my nephew and I hated it. It’s a kids version of the 360/PS3 versions.

I see... thanks for the note

I guess since I don’t have either a 360 or ps3… I’ll just have to get it and be satisfied with it. But seeing as how I haven’t played it in over a decade… I guess I won’t know the diff!

by tunga77 on Jun 9, 2009 1:21 PM MDT up reply actions  

if you haven't played in that long

you’ll be impressed on any system…the Wii version is fun, and I hate to knock it so hard, I’m just not a fan of the Wii whatsoever…

MODERN WARFARE 2 FTW!

I’m on that like a 12 year old at a Hannah Montana concert. I got the latest issue of Game Informer just to see the screen shots and read what they are doing as far as extending the storyline. The absolute highlight (all my gamer friends know this) is the MULTIPLAYER! I can’t wait for snow maps and fun new guns! I hope for all that is holy that they drop the P90. That gun is reserved for SWAT teams and SpecOps forces now. Another thing that potentially makes me soil my girlie shorts is the fact that they may be including suppressors for sniper rifles!

mmmmm…suppressors.

You guys won't believe what game I *still* play

Warcraft 3!!!!

After being the only online game I started playing years after my formidable years (college), I find myself still playing it to this day! My friends make fun of me relentlessly … I guess I just can’t get enough of them hawt Night Elves. ;)
