Re: OS Roundtable: The 'Unwritten Rules' of Sports Gaming
My unwritten rules:
NHL- No cheap goals. In some older NHL games you could often score if you skate to the right side and then right before you get to the goalie you go left and shoot.
MLB- Don't throw multiple pick offs. No constant curveballs or sliders below the knees.
WWE- No cheap wins. If wrestling was real then guys would take every shortcut possible to win. Beat your opponent outside the ring, Irish whip him to the stage, then run back in the ring before the 10 count.
Also for all games, make matchups fair. If you choose some average team, don't constantly choose the Yankees or LeBrons team or anything like that. -
As someone that player locks on center, I'm not a fan of the on ball D rule. And any time I played someone that used Vick in Madden, I'd use Urlacher and cancel him out.Comment

no 3/4 shot (from the opposing foul line) in double dribble. the double dribble in the arcades, some guys would just inbound and continuously bomb away from that range.
before the Michal vick rule there was the randal cunningham rule.Comment

Re: OS Roundtable: The 'Unwritten Rules' of Sports Gaming
We used this in the NHL series, in college but we used this for others too. On team select: hit random 3 times. You pick one of the 3. If you were unhappy with the three you could random a 4th time but had to take the 4th team.Comment

Past: No corner 3s in Double Dribble, get your buckets like a MAN
Present: No ragequits in The Show, at least offer to concede like a gentleman.Comment

For team select on 2k we run you spin random, if you like the team keep them, if not spin again.
You get five spins, but you can't go back to one of your previous choices.
If you land on a team and stick to them, then the other person lands on the same team, it cancels out that spin.Comment

Our Madden rules were the opposite. You were not allowed to run the clock down. You had to keep on scoring, to the point that one game ended in a 91-84 score. No one liked to see the "QB Kneel" play; in fact, one time I did that, it got the whole tournament wiped out.There... are... four... lights!Comment

Re: OS Roundtable: The 'Unwritten Rules' of Sports Gaming
one year I nearly won a madden tournament by milking the clock. they only played 5 minute quarters. I would have 5/6 minute drives. Id use up a quarter and a half on some drives. I suck at Madden, especially on D, so my game plan was to basically play keep away.
I got to the finals and the person I went up against used my own game plan against me. final score was 10-7. still won 50 dollars, that was the second place prize.
All the games I won were low scoring, no one caught on until the finals.
The following year the same tournament made a rule of no milking the clock.Comment
