Maximum Football??? - Page 17

So there is a lot of activity on the beta forums of a game that has gone gold, on the day the game is supposed to be released. That is certainly an encouraging sign.

I just commented on that in the MF forum (before I read your post).

stevew · 02-21-2006, 09:44 PM

We could take this game, combine it with courside challenge basketball, and have the ultimate vaporware sim game. Courtside Football.

I saw three new pages to this thread since I last checked here, and thought the game was released.

May have been the stupidest thought I've ever had.

Things are really starting to get a little testy over there.

hoosierdude · 02-21-2006, 10:12 PM

Can you see if this game is delayed a little? A tester posting that there was a lot of activity today on the testers forum... Does this mean good or bad?

I am ready for the first big issue(s) (I believe there will be more than one with the game...seeing how it is playing out and how Winter reacts to criticism.) and see how Matrix and D. Winter handle the masses and their complaints.

Should make for an entertaining week.

KWhit · 02-21-2006, 10:13 PM

They just announced that they are delaying the release a year so that they can add a custom option for the rouge to count 12 points!!111!!!1!!

OMFG!!!!!11!!!!!

stevew · 02-21-2006, 10:13 PM

shit, threads on this game go back to 2003 in the archives. That's hilarious.

And there (evidently) was another forum that dated before then.

Ya know...I had to actually pause and really think about this for a second. Only then did I decide it is a joke. I think. Maybe.

1. A Football computer game developed by Wintervalley Software and published by Matrix Games for Windows-based computers. It was planned for release on February 21, 2006. The game features no licenses of any current Football league, but allows the user customize the game to their taste. Players can choose to play a game under CFL, American football, or Indoor football rules, or create their own league with it's own unique rules. The game also allows complete customization of players and teams, as well as a deep play creation system.

2. Vaporware

That's awesome.

Will somebody tell them to change the box art to a *.png file. So it won't take so long to upload to the digital river server.

Honolulu_Blue · 02-21-2006, 11:00 PM

This is all going to end badly.

DaddyTorgo · 02-21-2006, 11:02 PM

I actually feel bad for Matrix in all of this. It appears that they're ending up with some degree of proverbial egg on their face as a result of this, which could well serve to drive away future sales of other games.

So your point is that it shouldn't?

True story:

When it was first announced, if you had set aside the money to purchase this game in an interest-garnering account... you would own Microsoft.

Tasan · 02-21-2006, 11:45 PM

Everyone sing it with me now!
