Spartans91 Posted August 22, 2006 Share Posted August 22, 2006 With the explosion of Fantasy Football (and sports in general) and the popularity of the Madden video game franchise - can you believe a fantasy version of the playstation/xbox game has not been created? Imagine holding a draft, uploading your logo, designing the jersey, and playing your fantasy "for real". The Huddle is getting big enough to sponsor such a game. I heard a radio ad for The Huddle on 610 WIP yesterday. Almost drove off the road. My little once free fantasy football haven is HUGE! Anyway, I think the fantasy football video game market would be pretty large. If not as its own product, as a feature of Madden or one of the other brands.

Chadman Posted August 22, 2006 Share Posted August 22, 2006 Could be. I would think the royalty payment to the NFL for the use of players, teams, etc., would be pretty high initially, but it might be fun. The other games can be set up as kind of a fantasy league anyway, can't they? Picking all-star teams, making your own players to sub in, etc. Interesting idea, though.

A couple of my buddies and I did sort of something like that. We got 16 people together and had a fantasy draft on Madden. Then each week on saturday we would get together and play the games out. For the season, It was cool but it took along time long. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeff You could do all of that on last year's version in Franchise, except for uploading logos. It falls apart on the Offensive Lines, even in an IDP league.
