Operation Sports at 2K Sports Part One: How Did You Get Your Start in Gaming?

[jeebs9]

My start came out of NCAA FOOTBALL 98 With Danny Wuerffel.

I saved my money for 3 weeks to get that. Then lost it in a hole in my pocket. My grandmother felt so bad for me. That she went out and got it for me while we were in a flea market. She talked the guy down price wise. My cousins and I played that until it started skipping. We got NCAA 99 by pooling all our money together. And then we got into Roster making. To think we would by the rosters from someone online and then sell it in neighborhood for 2 bucks. Even then I knew NCAA Football had to come to a end eventually. Renaming players to their actually name was definitely wrong and backwards loop hole. Best part was when in Madden you could transfer those players into a draft class for franchise mode. We would create our self on the team of our choice played through 4 years of NCAA then get drafted into the NFL. My cousins and brother and friends until this day talk about all the crazy awesome season we had. I followed OS for years. Since the start. I never made a profile until 2008.

By the way, I'm from Brooklyn, NYC. My cousins and I still follow college football hardcore. That's why when people ask us what's your favorite team. We says "All of team". We even know all the fight songs by heart lol.
