Now that the dust has settled: Best Pro Football Simulator?

Mike Lowe · 11-22-2012, 01:39 PM

Sierra Front Page Sports (including available utilities for finances, etc.)
Front Office Football
Total Pro Football
Madden series (for simming)
Other

I won't waste time explaining pro's and con's of each as I imagine most of you are more familiar with where each game is and is not at.

Still remarkable there's not a good pro football sim out there. I know there are a few "in the works," but I just don't get it and only wish I knew how to program something

I'm sure this thread will get closed haha

Never too late to learn to program. But text sims are largely a gigantic niche and a huge labor of love. More FOF leagues out there than anything. I don't know if any Madden sim leagues...

What dust has settled on what?

No new games...we've had to time to reflect across these different games.

Football must be hard to program. Hard to believe there isnt more options. I loved Front Office Football but felt it was only at a beginning stage. If he had updated every year or two like many of the other popular sims he would have created a gem.

No doubt. If Jim would just throw in a couple new features and maybe update the interface I'd gladly buy again.
