[Brandwin]

I'm itching for some football and to play this online too? $10 bucks is fair to me.

Time to time I MAY revisit those old games but they're ALREADY PAID FOR! Not spending 10 bills on this joka. Makes no sense to me or my pockets.

Yep, I am with you. NFL 2k5 and Madden 10 already on my shelf is what I'll be playing. I suspect this may be an oline v. offline thing. I have no interest in online gaming at all, so maybe that's why this isn't exciting for me. I loved Tecmo back in the day, but we've come a long way since then!

I'll get the feelers out here once the game drops. Would you guys be interested in an OS ladder for Tecmo Bowl Throwback? I did one for APF and it was pretty successful.

Basically, I did it where you get 3 points for a win, 1 point for a loss. At the end of the ladder "season" we'd have a tournament with the seedings according to your ladder position (with a cutoff if necessary).

Users would simply report the result of who they played. Games only counted against other people involved in the ladder.

The big advantage to it was that it was very casual, so there was no time commitment necessary to be involved. It was fun. Just an idea.
