The Next ME Sports Tournament - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Sleepy Ranger · 02-18-2006, 04:46 AM

I thought it over and I have finally come to a decision. Since I'm not really a fan of hockey it won't be that. My apologies to all who voted for it. Now then, after putting a bit of thought in the matter, having a look at available consoles, games, my knowledge and liking of the sport I have made a final list of sports from you to choose of.

Football - Fifa 2006 (PS2) [if you want an encore tournament]
Baseball - All-Star Baseball 2001 (N64) [Rosters won't matter, the game would make a good tourney]
Boxing - Knockout Kings 2000 (N64) [I'm not so sure about this but its your call]
American Football - Madden NFL 2002 (N64) [Odds are I'll be getting the new one for the PS2 soon, so if this is picked I'll be doing the matches on the PS2 version.]
Basketball - NBA Live 2000 (N64) [Odds are I'll be getting the new one for the PS2 soon, so if this is picked I'll be doing the matches on the PS2 version.]
Cricket - Cricket 2005 (PS2) [Well I don't really think anyone other than Saucepanman will vote for this but have at it]
Formula 1 - F1 2005 (PS2) [Added in late due to my forgetfulness]

Alright people thats the lot of it. Go ahead and make your choice and I'll do the rest. Lets hope we get some good sporting in my dear ladies and gentlemen.

A shame it did not become Hockey, that would have been fun.

Since I proberbly will not be able to contribute to this sports turnament I will not vote.

If not football againg then I think Boxing would be awesome on so many levels.

I was really excited to see Hockey, but, in the end, it's up to you.

Hmmm....It'd be cool to have an encore tournament.

But, I think I'd have to go with...

++Tennis

I've played it before (both in RL and the Mario version) and it's awsome!!

Edit - It's ok Sleepy, I'll go with

--Tennis (hopefully for now)
++Boxing

Argh! Sorry Glirdy but I just realized that matches in Mario Tennis can not be simmed. I'll look around for another tennis game but till then its off the table. My bad.

American Football!!!! The season can continue!

Of course, I'll be happy with anything but basket ball.

++Basketball

I like both football and basketball, but I think basketball is better suited to a tournament.
