Anyone plan on buying the PS2 version of 09?

How bout they take the people that work on the mascot game and utilize them in better ways to give us gamers what we're looking for. If they want to make a mascot game, they should focus on the Wii and make a nice little kid game out of it because I don't know of too many adults or teens for that matter that are intersted in how cool it is to see Bevo do a somersault after being hit by Brutus. If they want to advertise home crowd advantage and atmosphere, shouldn't they include home fields?

Yeah you're right, they need to hire at least a few more folks it appears.

It would only make sense to me unless this is a marketing ploy for next season so they can advertise "authentic stadiums for every team and all bowl games." I guess they have to save something for next year's version that they can plug.

Hell, I wouldn't even care if they would throw a generic one on there that closely resembles the stadium, just something to differentiate them. I hate the generic stadium they use that looks the same for all the teams that use it. I'm not sure if it's even on this year's game or not but can someone tell me the importance of the mascot game that's wasting space? I haven't seen much info on the PS2 version yet. Any new features been added or have they changed dynasty mode in any way?

Here's the info from the official site:

The main one for me is going to be the ability to sim parts of games, so if it's a blowout either way you can sim to a finish, or even sim the first half and play the second. This'll make Dynasty mode a lot more fun to play imo, especially if like me, you don't have the time you used to.

Is this the last year they will produce it for the PS2?

PS2 is dead like hiphop.

Ain't that the truth. I think the PS2 is more alive than hip-hop at this point. Ha!

I have a ps2, but I just never buy games for it. I play my 360 almost exclusively with a little wii mixed in also.

I still only have a PS2, so if I get 09, that's the version it'll be. However, I ended up skipping getting 08 last year after hearing so much complaining about the turnovers. If the PS2 version of 09 has similar issues, I'd have no problem skipping it again. I had a lot of fun with 07, so I could live with it for another year if necessary.
