I am heading out tomorrow morning to Vegas for an event EA is having out at the Arena Bowl. They will be discussing the game and giving us a sneak preview of what's in store. I don't expect to have too much info about the game available when I return because it's in its very early stages, but you can post questions if you like and I'll try and answer them. You can figure that it might be like the Madden even in March where we cam back and didn't have much to say heh.

A lot of this trip is about getting us acquainted with the AFL itself, so we may have a chance to interview players and that sort of thing. If there's anything you want to know in that regard please let me know. I am going to take as many pictures as I can of the events out there (they aren't likely to allow for pictures of the video game to be taken), and I'll try and give some updates nightly about what's going on. Thanks.

i think we need to talk about the crucial game that was played for the trip to vegas. ;) My most intense game of madden to day. that would be a good radio show topic.

Ha.. that was crazy how that happened. We played that rough ass game of Madden and then it didn't even matter.

Yup intense game. Bills (me) vs. Skins (rac). I fall down 10 early and work my way back. Score a TD with under 1 min left to go up 4. Stop rac for the win. We both played so conservatively. So i win, and i get to go. Then 10 mins later my best friend calls to say that his wedding is on the same day. So i'm pissed that i cant go because its vegas and its arena bowl. So i tell rac to just go ahead and go since i cant. Now i'm not even going to wedding because my wife has something for the Bar Exam to do. So now im just at home lol. Typical fred luck

That's what happens when you test your luck against that of an Irishman. ;)

I heard today that this is a current gen game.. I know some people were wondering about that and had asked in another thread so there's the answer.

I'm heading out the door right now. If you guys still want to ask questions I'll try and check this thread tonight before I go to sleep.
