    Random question, is anyone else having trouble signing into the connected careers site? Its telling me my email/password combo is incorrect, but I know it isn't as I can log onto my EA origin account with it.

    If anyone is needing to buy a new subscription to Xbox Live for the new edition of Madden then I couldn't recommend CD Keys highly enough.

    I just purchased a 13 month subscription (and they throw in some sort of emblem for Halo too) for €33 plus cents. The below is what they have at the minute:

    44a405d5fc5372b702d6bd36ef0c0fff.png

    They do 5% off if you like their Facebook page too, but to save you the hassle the code is CDK6355 at the minute, they do change it every so often although the current active one can usually be found at Hot UK Deals.

    You pay, the send you an email with a link, click that and you enter your mobile phone number with the 353 prefix which they will instantly send you a code to. Just enter that code and up pops a scanned picture of the subscription code to redeem.

    It took me longer to type this than it did to pay for, receive and enter the code :pac:

    Is the EA Sports Season Ticket for early release of Madden 25 out for everyone tomorrow, or just for USA users?

    It's a weird one Paully, it's SUPPOSED to be tomorrow for US, Tuesday for Europe, but it never is, Europe always seem to get it with the US, but I checked mine earlier and it said 1 day 21 hours, which at the time suggested 5pm on Saturday.

    In my experience the actual countdown timer in EA Sports Season Ticket is correct and doesn't change, so I think it's Saturday at 5pm which will run until Tuesday, when the game is released in the US. Tuesday is also the day my season ticket runs out :pac:

    Cheers mate.

    I seen Steve Noah, owner of Operation Sports, tweeted the below a couple of days ago:
    Steve Noah ‏@Steve_OS 19 Aug
    Madden NFL 25 Season Ticket subscribers get the game at 1:00 PM EST on Friday, August 23rd. (PS3, 360)

    If it had meant European users were able to get it at that time and use it until release day over here I'd probably have shelled out for it as it would have given us a week with the game, but there's not much point if it would be from Saturday-Tuesday over here, as the game doesn't come out until Friday.

    I noticed when joining the franchise that EA still don't have Sean Payton back in the game, instead the manager is Dusty McDonald :pac:

    Thomas Howard, one of the free agents I picked up at the start of the season, died in a car crash this morning. Very sad :(

    I've seen it before it's absolutely great, I've recommended it to NFL newbies too as an intro to the draft.

    i really like the money one, I think it was something like 80% of professional athletes in the NFL/MLB/NHL/NBA are broke within 3 years of retiring.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,587 ✭✭✭Berty44


    Virtually all of those 30 for 30 documentaries are compulsive viewing. I have actually rewarched a couple of them. My favourite is Roll Tide War Eagle about the Auburn Alabama rivalry.

    Any time you see one on just watch it !


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 6,329 Mod ✭✭✭✭PerrinV2


    Anyone know where I can watch the 92 Cowboys America's game?
    I've seen them all up to that and I read "Boys will be Boys" a while back so interested in seeing it


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,587 ✭✭✭Berty44


    Roll Tide War Eagle on ESPN at 5pm this evening.

    Just watch it !


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,880 ✭✭✭✭Rock Lesnar


    Good programme on SS2 now about the LA Rams defensive line known as the Fearsome 4, They were indeed Fearsome


  • Registered Users Posts: 28,710 ✭✭✭✭Paully D


    Happy Christmas everyone :D


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,880 ✭✭✭✭Rock Lesnar


    Terrific Documentary on sky earlier about Marcus Allen and his relationship or lack off with Al Davis when he was RB with the Raiders, his stats are incredible considering he was Full Back for a couple of years and didnt play for another couple of years, he sorted that out when he joined the chiefs and won 9 out of 10 games v the Raiders :-)
