      My next longer vacation I'm going to consider taking off Friday-Thursday. Coming back on a non-payroll Friday at work would be so easy. Probably won't seem so bad.

        The drive and/or flight back from a vacation/trip. As good as it might have been, always do hate that moment of coming home. How everything fun you've done the past ___ days is now just a memory/things captured in pictures/videos and it's "back to reality". Not that "back to reality" means back to something bad, but just how it means it's back to being out of vacation mode where you aren't trying to cram in as much fun things in a specific time period and being so stressed free/relaxed during it all.

        Even more from the longer trips back home cause you'd be spending a bigger portion of that time just looking back on things and being abit sad that what you've done won't be able to happen again for quite some time.

          Madden 16's soundtrack. I like the game but most of those songs are unbearable. That "travelin man" song makes me angry every time I hear it lol.

          Sadly, I am too lazy to go in and turn the music off

            I can't remember the last time I played a game and didn't immediately turn the soundtrack off, it's become step 1 for me when setting up a new game

              I pretty much mute every single sports game I play and either listen to music or put a TV show/movie/podcast on in the background on my computer. Soundtracks and commentary are generally awful in video games.

                The older NHL games had the perfect soundtracks.

                  I miss the old NFL Films music they would have, along with newer versions/remixes of certain themes.

                    I think NCAA 06 had the best soundtrack. I think MVP 05 was good as well. I remember one of the NCAA Basketball games by EA had bands playing instead of music and I really enjoyed that one. The Show usually has some good ones too.

                      I think twitter is about to become my go to socal media app. It was facebook but my timeline is always filled with drama, attention seeking post, or people posting insignificant thoughts or details about their life. I really dont care what you are about to eat, where you are going, nor do i want to see videos of you just puckering your lips and batting your eyelashes while you are admiring yourself.

                        For me,mvp baseball 2005 is my fave soundtrack of all games. Nhl 06 is close 2nd for me. Nba 2k10 also good too. Though from 2011-present,not really any game i like soundtrack lots. Maybe 2-3 songs at most on some,but thats it

                          The best sound track?

                          It's hard though...especially when I got my neighbor playing their franchise across the street...maybe I will occupy myself with Glamore Magazine.

                            That's why I kept my PS3...and went Xbox among other reasons. Being able to keep my custom music going in MLB.

                              Thats a big positive in ps3 vs other current/past consoles for me. Mlb and nhl,having custom sounds adds to game in a huge way. Cool to have real goal horn + song when scoring in nhl,and real songs played during games,when there's a break in the action.

                              Same with mlb and walkup music along with tv theme after an inning.

                                Madden 05 and 04 had some great tunes. MVP 05 has iconic songs though, as in I could play them at the bar and people would be like, "that's MVP."

                                MVP 06 had a deal with Victory Records I believe with some cool bands. I still love The Junior Varsity album they had a song off of.
