Anyone played Pro Strategy Football 2022. Reviews seem pretty positive, thinking about giving it a try...

Anyone here actually playing Madden this year? I've been a long time Madden guy basically since the beginning. This is the first year I didn't buy the game. The changes that were promised for franchise were mostly empty ones, and the same damn glitches and bugs have been in the game for years now. I've been having a blast with The Show though, that game really puts Madden to shame.

I've adopted the same strategy every year for the last 3-4 years. I get an updated roster on the previous version and play around with that in franchise mode until the current version gets heavily discounted (albeit this year that means playing 16 game seasons). I certainly won't invest heavily until I can get a series X (rare as rocking horse shit in the UK) so no way I'm paying out £50 or more, to play it on on my One S, especially as there's virtually no improvement across the board over M21. Hopefully if sales actually start getting hit then EA will get the message, but I'm not holding out any hope either happens.

I bought Madden 22 .. but havent played much of it. Also bought NHL22 and dont play that much.

Im close to the end of my 4th playthrough of RDR2. Just play that game about 4 hours twice a week or so, every week for over a year now.

Thinking of trying Last of Us or LOU2. i dont know.

I bought it and it's somewhat same as last year. Although I always play Madden online, I never played their franchise or any other game modes.

I forgot part two was out for LOU. First one was good its not as open world as RDR2 its more linear but good story line.

Last of Us 2 is a must play

Far Cry 6 dropping this week, can't wait, looks like the usual Far Cry craziness

This is the primary reason I am not buying it until I can either get my hands on a series X (rarer than RHS in the UK) or at least until its massively discounted. Too much money for the same shit last few years.

I had zero expectations for Guardians of the Galaxy, but it's pretty well done
