Legacy Football - The Evolution of Sports Gaming Leagues 
Posted on September 22, 2014 at 05:25 PM.

If you've ever played for a Pro Club in FIFA, you know that it is an entirely different type of video game experience.

Decades of sports gaming has programmed us to worry about the old numero uno. In the early days we were the kings of our living rooms, winning championships left and right.

Then came the cold harsh reality that we might actually suck compared to other players. Online gaming was a wake up call.

But pro clubs? Being just a cog in a bigger machine?

We haven't been programmed to game like that. We haven't learned to do things like not crowd our striker. After all, if we gave him the ball we magically became him. And team defense? What in the hell is that?!?

But the heart of sports - virtual and real - is not just competing against our enemy, but doing so alongside your brother.

That's why pro clubs are truly the future of sports gaming. It takes FIFA 15 and lifts it up to a completely different level.

That is why Legacy Football was launched today - to create an environment where virtual pros can get together, join teams and compete on the pitch for virtual silverware that, I guarantee, will mean much more than winning a trophy in career mode.

And that comes with all the bells and whistles you'd expect.

As a player you'll have your exploits tracked and noted for all to see. And we won't only track the "sexy" stats - assists, goals, clean sheets - but we'll also track stats other cogs can take pride in. Tackles. Key passes. Passing percentage. Long passes. Interceptions.

Managers are tasked with turning a group individuals into a team. They'll scour the academy for free agents and schedule trial sessions to see how they mesh with others in the team. On the pitch they'll pick a captain to help them out, and dictate things like their formation, tactics and strategy. After a match, its their responsibility to enter the info in our web site and make sure everything is accurate. It's a lot of work - but being the boss man makes it worth it.

And in the offseason, the fun doesn't die down. Armed with awards based on their performance, managers hit the bargaining circuit looking to buy or sell players in the transfer market.

Sound exciting? Head over to our web site, visit the forums and give it a whirl. If you've never played Pro Clubs before, there's never been a better time. And if you're an experienced pro clubs veteran, jump in and help guide The Legacy.
