    Packerrats.com XBOX 360 Madden Championship

    If you have a 360 and plan on buying Madden 07 (because if you weren't we would question your sanity and other things), please report in here. I would like to get a little tourney going on here.

    I was thinking about getting it, but I dont have X-live Gold membership to play on-line.

    I would get beat too bad anyway. I just cant use those controllers the way i use to when i was a kid. Mostly I just play racing games and a few 3rd person games.

    2 Years ago for the Xbox you could both play the same team. One was in home uniforms and the other was the visitor.

    People but way to much emphasis on the teams when they play. I like to play as the Packers, obviously, but the skill of the team isn't most important. The number #1 most important thing when you play is playcalling I've beat countless people as a bad team like the Texans or the Lions, because of playcalling. Sure somebody may have Tom Brady, but who cares if all they're gonna do is throw deep into double coverage. I know a guy who used to play guard for the Radiers, and he's about 65 years old, and he can kick most people's ass. Not because he is a wizard with the controller, but he can read the defenses and the offenses. If you can do that, than you will win more games than you will lose.

    Amen. In 2006, I am a big fan of the 4-3 defense and Jaguar playbook. Best playbooks in the game. I run my entire offense out of the I formation.

    We'll keep this thread going until enough people have the game, the system etc... Then once we have a decent number we'll all list of team preferences listed 1-10. We'll draw names and go from there. We'll do two divisions. Winner of each plays each other and then we have a winner.

    thoughts?

    When you have a 360 you get Xbox Live Silver for free, which gives you access to the Market Place where you can download free content or purchase other items like Arcade Games, Theme and other crap. To play Multi-player games you have to purchase Xbox Live Gold.

    Sometimes they have free weekends. Not very often though

    I am guessing that since your Xbox is modified that even if you purchase Xbox Live Gold that they wont let you connect. They verify that your console is original so they can try to control cheating and hacking and such. If they detect anything out of the ordinary your denied.

    How many people we waiting for you again, I play a game or 2 online EVERYNIGHT, its sooo repetitive and there isn't any way that ne one can be THAT much better than the other.

    My mic is broke, but i set it up to where i can hear people bitching over the TV but i can't respond which kinda sucks

    God I hope i get the pack!
