Legitimately one of the coolest moments I've ever played in a sports video game.
The Willie Mays Storyline in MLB The Show is so, SO well done, and this iconic moment is the icing on the cake.
Don't get me wrong, I love both College Football 25 and Madden 25...
But I'd LOVE to meet the designers that made camera angles where you can't see the outside WRs when the ball is snapped. Like - HOW is that a thing???
College Football 25 was not built to be a fully true simulation game.
College Football 25 was not built to be a competitive game.
College Football 25 was built to be a FUN game.
Play it how you want - but it's designed to be fun.
Heisman difficulty in College Football 25 is almost perfectly balanced, I'm convinced. Any bugs aside - if you are locked in and run actual gameplanned strategy (not everyone wants to do this) - you succeed
- Shed timers are realistic, YOU HAVE TO SET UP THE DEEP PASS
- Play
This is a blue lob throw in College Football 25 w/Revamped Passing. Notice how EARLY in the meter the blue is.
The blue changes depending on your trajectory. Higher trajectory, earlier blue range.
Blue - Perfect Accuracy
Yellow - Ratings based accuracy
Red - Bad Accuracy
I'm sorry,
@MLBTheShow
. I know the Daily Moment is to hit a HR with Mike Trout, but my lord and baseball savior Tony LaRussa won't allow me to swing at a baseball while up 11-0.
Please adjust the Daily Moment to be a closer game so that I may complete this task.
Interest bars RESET every phase of recruiting in College Football 25!!!
Don't overuse your recruiting hours early and miss out on some lower tier gems!
College Football 25 is absolutely generational. On Heisman every game ebbs and flows so differently. You have to lock in, make your line reads, make your pre snap reads then still execute. Recruiting is strategic and rewarding.
I'm so damn happy.
The Orioles have given facts with proof in links throughout the night of how the LGBTQIA+ community struggles to maintain equality and rights in today's society. They have also provided zero in game updates.
THIS is how you do Pride Night.
Bravo Orioles. Adore this.
Just want to set an expectation:
College Football is a MASSIVELY hyped AAA game. Everyone and their father is going to try and get on 4 PM Eastern today.
Go in with the expectation that servers are going to have issues for a bit. Almost every single AAA game does.
Plan ahead

He's right.

I'm excited for all 3 movies, but MI needs to be in IMAX.

COLLEGE FOOTBALL 25 DYNASTY HEADS UP:
Do NOT edit your Scheme/Playbook in Dynasty. You can update them with EDIT COACH, but there is a bug that will edit your roster if you use Scheme/Playbook.

we're getting 12 announced cards today (2 Event/10 Program), and probably 11 more Topps now, all that go to the Set 1 collection.
All for PLAYING THE GAME AND FOR FREE.
Other card collecting modes need to get better.
Hello,
This is only for whoever designed the gameplay of College Football 25 on Heisman difficulty. If you are not one of these people, keep scrolling.
You rock. That's it. Just thank you.

Most people don't know about the RTTS Pack Shop so hope this helps!
@ModernWarzone
I mean it's a team game. I get why creators wanna solo but it's a 4 man mode. Is the expectation you drop with your 4 and split up and play solo?
A reminder:
DO NOT BUY PACKS IN MLB THE SHOW
You're going to see a lot of us buying packs as creators and ripping on stream. Please remember we can easily make it a tax write off, and we get PAID to entertain you all.
Your stubs always go further on the Auction House.
This is appreciated for Team Affinity 3 in MLB The Show:
50 Total Bases added for 7500 TA Points.
The other missions are also doubled in TA Points (5K and 10K respectively)
Good add and shows they're listening.
It's getting weird at this point.
Someone over there needs to grab whoever is in charge of the smear campaign and let them know, opinion or not, it's giving serious desperation for relevance vibes.
IGN SHOULD be better than this.
ICYMI: Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League is a frustrating game to play. Engaging mission design is nearly non-existent, the looter-shooter mechanics are tired and dull, and the grotesquely-repetitive postgame leaves little-to-nothing to do of interest.
Our review:
To get Jackie:
You get 18 cards by grinding the program.
You then need to purchase 26 cards.
I never want to hear "Grind 99" again. It's closer to MUT/MyTeam than it's ever been.
We are going to need to face facts:
Diamond Dynasty has taken the turn that all of the card collecting modes takes.
Grind 99 is no longer a thing, and won't be.
So we do what EA and 2K players do:
Look for every loophole possible and cheat every stub you can get out of SDS.
A guy with 50-60 power in a massive stadium with 4 foot elevation needs a home run for a moment.
We're trying to kill gamers with stress, aren't we SDS?
I will say this - IF you're going to grind Team Affinity first (and it's setup similar to Season 1):
- Moments
- Showdowns
- Conquests (with TA players as your team)
- Mini Seasons
That's the most efficient path.

today, SDS has recently given you access to:
- 30 high 90s cards, including filling most of your roster
- The best SP in the game
- A 99 Acuna
- 1 HR Derby Card
- 1 All Star Game card
- A TON of packs going along with that.
No money spent.
Just, wow.
My hype for College Football 25 is because Dynasty is so different than Franchise. You only get players for 4 years and that's if you're lucky enough for them to stay. It's a constant roster revolution with actual David and Goliath battles.
2 months is too long.
MLB The Show survey just re-pissed me off about the state of the game.
I was around for the teams that used to say "Grind 99" and "Don't buy packs".
Feels like those voices are long gone.
EVERY SINGLE OTHER card collecting mode started like this before they got EXTREMELY greedy.
Stop with this "doesn't affect me" or "they're not EA/2K".
This is a slippery slope that has happened MULTIPLE times before. Like we have legit history of it happening.
Shots fired.
And you know what - rightfully so. The fact that you have to buy points THEN packs THEN get another currency in other Card Collecting modes is BS.
You know who I'm talking about.
Hearing people complain about having to buy $70 College Football then buy $70 Madden the next month.
Some of y'all weren't alive more than 10 years ago? Like this isn't a new thing?
RIP Peanut, 10/10/07 - 7/26/21
If Pickell was the sassy queen of the family, Peanut was the soul. He was me - the grumpy old fart that only paid you mind if you had treats or scratches.
He was a goodest of dudes, and now he's watching over Pickell like he always did before.
@MLBTheShow
Come on - don't act like you did this as a favor.
You did this because you took the jelly bean currency out of packs without telling anyone, and needed a way for people to still finish the Egg Hunt program.
This has been a slimy day for DD.

The All Star Program has rekindled the Diamond Dynasty spark in me for MLB The Show. It's structured MUCH better than previous programs, and I don't just mean the rewards (although they're good):

There's a lot of people on the Madden franchise community that don't get along, and EA finally got us all on the same page.
Holy hell.

This back paddle swing in MLB The Show actually works.
Never thought it would make timing easier.
Credit where credit is due -
@littlemann17
was the first one I heard talking about it.
After giving up a 17 point lead, Bowling Green has 1 second left, and the starting QB out injured.
This is QB2 (who was a 4 star recruit that was benched) Major Petty throwing QB turned WR Davante Coxie (who was benched originally for Petty).
College Football 25 is CINEMA.
You heard on the MLB The Show stream first - an event 5 weeks away that is so massive, so amazing they can't talk about.
Not normally a leaks guy...but I had to on this one. I got you.
