This game is awesome.

I played last night online and lost 69-65 playing 5 min quarters. The game went back and forth. I was the Lakers, My opponent was Dallas. They kill me on 3 pointers.

Eaglefan32, whats your latest slider your using for your solo play?

When playing online against an opponent, who's sliders does it take?

I'd play in a league as the Hornets, but a) I'm not good, and b) I probably won't be free to play much until after the election.

Memphis
No preference on fantasy draft
10 or 12 minute quarters

I'm up for it, just as long as its flexible schedule....

A) Dallas

B) Doesnt matter

C) whatever everyone else wants.

So far we have 7 players:

FOFC Name - TEAM - Hold A DRAFT - MIN Quarters - Gamer Tag

CleBrownsFan - Cavs - Yes - 10 min - Pronk32
EaglesFan - Sixers - Either Way - 10 or 12 min
LionsFan - Bulls - Either Way - 10 min - PRBoricua0719
Sooner333 - Hornets
Pumpy - Grizzlies - Either Way - 10 or 12 min - Pumpy
RGunner - Mavericks - Either Way - Either Way - kbz2286
TroyF - Nuggets - Either WAy - 10 - 12 min - Taf1972

We need at least 8 to start a league so ONE more and we'll start a league up. If you guys could give me your gamertags that would help me be able to set the league up.

my gamertag is jeeshsta

I won't be able to sign up until tomorrow when I re-set up my wireless connector after work. I dont' really care if we do a draft, but it might be kind of difficult to set a time depending on how many teams. I would say we might as well go the full 12.

I'll put the league up to 12 but we're having a hard enough time trying to get 8 - I'll keep it @ 12 but if we can't fill it then I'll have to change it back to 8.

I do think it may de difficult to set a time for a draft... we'll take a vot once the league fills up.

Pumpy Tudors

10-13-2006, 07:35 AM

Due to various things, I was unable to sign up last night, but it'll happen tonight or tomorrow afternoon for sure.

Also, I'll pay jbmagic to join the league.

what sliders your going to be using for the league?

This league sounds interesting, but my trial is only a month on gold. So I am going to pass for now. If I like the gold memership than I might sign up for it.

Doesn't matter what browser I use, I click on join league and I get a blank page. I'm logged in. No idea what the hell is going on. Is it possible to send an invite?

Eaglesfan27

10-14-2006, 06:45 PM

I'm having trouble figuring out how to join. Is it done on the 360 or can I do it from the league site? (which I'm viewing currently)

If so, where do I click on the league site.

For what it's worth, I joined on the 360. Searched all leagues for "fofc" and it popped right up, shouldn't be too much trouble.

Cool, I'll just do it that way after the college games tonight.

EF - are you still having trouble finding the league?

Eaglesfan27

10-17-2006, 02:32 PM

No, I just had an unexpected Visitor Saturday night after the game, Sunday had guys over for the Eagles-Saints game, and Monday was all wife time since she is going out of town today for 5 1/2 days. I'll be signing up when I get home from work tonight and I'm available every evening this week to play.

Eaglesfan27

10-18-2006, 12:41 PM

I've joined. Very easy to find the league after using the Right shoulder button to do a search for FOFC.

Three more peeps to join so we can start this league up!!

I should have the game in about a week... so if you guys are still waiting I'll sign up then.

This game was *finally* released here on the 360 and I just grabbed my copy (the last one left), so I'll sign on up to this league tonight.

Aw, jeez.

I'm going to have to give this a whirl when I'm finished with MUA. I threw a few friend invites to the folks I saw in this thread; thought I had most of everybody on the 360 gamertag thread.

I haven't signed up, but I will when I'm home next (tomorrow). I noticed that 6 others had signed up.

I got a 360 and NBA2k7 but I don't see myself signing up for XBOX Live, but that may change. Plus I suck at NBA2k7 at the moment.

Flashing Red. Green in the middle.

It happens once in a while - almost always on 2k games.

Red is suppose to be some kind of error message, everything I've read 3 red lights means hardware failure.

Ugh. Is there some kind of warranty on these things? I've had it for about 5 months.

I had to send mine back when it had the 3 red lights.. Now we will see how long it takes for them to fix it and send it back.

Hurry up and send it back. I think the Microsoft warranty may be six months. So unless you purchased an extended from Best Buy, etc....

Oh, Microsoft will let you purchase an extended warranty from them anytime the 360 is currently under a microsoft warranty. So extend it while you are at it.

Sorry but i have not read the full thread. I have seen that the PS2 version has been released in Spain and saw the box yesterday in a local store.

Have any of you tried the PS2 version? I know the graphs won't be half as good but what about the gameplay?

How do you guys are liking the GM mode? Deep enought for us text sims fans?

The patch is out for the 360!

It fixes the sliders reseting to default when you tried to develop a player and it was a really anyoning bug. It's being reported that the subs AI is fixed too.

Excellent! Now, I'll have to balance time between both games on the 360. I wonder how well the importing players from College Hoops works. I'm going to restart my dynasty and see if it works well.

Okay, what the fuck is that screen shaking bullshit during FT's when you play h2h? I nearly seizured i think. I'm playing my first live game ever, and it's close, until I go 1 for 20 from the stripe and he hits about 5 threes in a row. It's hard enough to shoot free throws as it is, let alone when the screens all fucked up.

Groundhog

08-28-2007, 09:35 PM

With the amount of lag I get playing from Australia, it doesn't really matter my opponent shakes the screen or not. I just tap the stick quickly and make about 60% of my FTs that way.

Eagerly looking forward to 2K8 anyhow.

Eaglesfan27

08-30-2007, 09:22 PM

The new additions to 2k8 sound very nice from the various previews:

- Lock on defender based on ratings
- Bars to tell when guys are in an area where they shoot well - I like this for rookies
- Multiple new attributes including how well a guy shoots off the dribble, how well he shoots with a man in his face, etc.
- Player roles in franchise with guys getting upset if there are too many stars who don't share the ball.

Although it probably deserves its own thread, here is the first trailer of NBA2k8. Unbelievable how realistic most of the players look:

I know it's one of the least important things but... the crowd graphics and reactions are incredible, the best and more realistic ones i have ever seen in a videogame. Hey, let's start a new thread for 2k8 instead of using this one, let's start the tease! :D
