Looking for Football sim.

FOF 2007 is pretty hard to beat. Solid game. I have a single player career where I replaced the worst team (Raiders) with a created hometown team. I also started alternating draft classes; one CPU generated (which is very good, get your booms/busts, injury prone but uber talented, late steals, etc., drafting is awesome), and then one NFL historical (you can download real historical draft classes from the FOF central website). I started in like 1970-ish and just had the 1983 draft class. Never won a Superbowl yet but have had major QB problems all along. Just had my best season at 15-1 behind rookie QB Dan Marino, lost in the Divisional round.

I love all the stat tracking, etc. It's fun to get a guy you like (esp. from a CPU generated draft class) and run him for years, then compare him to the guys 10 years prior and 10 years later that you liked just as much. I had one CB that was Deion-Sanders like.. shut-down.. I drafted this guy 2 or 3 overall.. But then he started to develop injury problems in his 3rd season.. Had to trade him in his 5th season right in his prime because i saw where it was going. Sure enough he spent the majority of his next 3 seasons on IR and fell off the map.

I do hope that one day Madden, etc., can replicate player development, drafting, etc., that FOF has.

Agreed. My football gaming would be complete and I would never need another sports game again.

It seems though that PFS has the potential to do just that. Constant updates and it keeps getting better and better. Hopefully the career mode will get deeper just like it is in OOTP and FM.

Great customization abilities/can create a league as big or small as you want with any teams you want...but totally crappy gameplay. Don't get it.

I want to get FOF 2007, but I HATE the UI and I love the UI for PFS, it feels updated and more fresh. I downloaded both demos, I have some questions. Can you import player pictures for FOF 2007? I tried to get the Stelmack utility to work with FOF 2007, but I couldn't get it to work. Does it work with the current version on windows 7?
