Hypothetically, the/Re might be a place with a SLASH URL dedicated to ROMs. I of course would not know one way or another.

I’m one win away from promotion and getting my Rival points. I’ve only lost one game in Div 4. Purposely relegating myself on the last day of the season paid off lol.

If I get bored tomorrow I might play a couple Champs games so I can play qualifiers again. That is the only casual mode in the game.
200 IQ play :laugh:

Even though I know that the pack weight will be awful and I’ll get absolutely nothing, the champs rewards are to tempting too pass up, so I’m torturing myself.

Any switch games \ games available on switch recommendations?

As I get older I struggle to find games that really hold my attention - couldn't do zelda more than a few hours, for example.

@FLYguy3911 you said you use 5 star skill players as much as possible, right?

What skill moves do you use most? Stepover boost and what else?
Mostly elasticos and the step over variation (not sure what it’s called but you hold the left bumper while you do the elastico on the right stick.) I don’t do many of the others.

Oh and fake shots with players that have trickster is really good. It’s like a ball roll.

Zelda is the best console game since maybe Zelda on the 64.
If that didn’t hold you, like it didn’t hold me after a while, you either have adhd or you might have gotten bored with games.

Ok yup, thats what I thought you had said but I couldn’t remember. I ask because I hadn’t been doing stepover boosts this game because it didn’t seem like they worked as well as last game, but I got RTTK Havertz from the Campaign Pick SBC and hooooly crap does he get a boost. :laugh: Wasn’t sure if there was something else I was missing out on.

I wish I could do the trickster fake shots but somehow neither 5* skill Mbappe or Vini have base trickster. Lame.

Yeah the stepovers got buffed in the last update. Havertz has always had good animations in this game. Sad we didn’t get his LB card this year. I packed the RTTK card during Black Friday but didn’t end up using him after I got Rooney. Sucks those cards don’t have a PS+ or I still might be using him.

No kidding. That LB/CM/ST Havertz TOTS card was one of my favorites from last year. The most elite stepovers I’ve ever seen. :laugh:

I’m hoping at some point they release an evo that can be used on any card without a PS+. I’ll keep him just in case.

The 83x10s are worse than the 82x14s.

I really struggle with open world games specifically. Just bores me to death.

Slay the spire has been holding my attention for a bit, and I play counter strike regularly.

It's really tough for me to find games I will like because I have no idea what criteria I'm looking for

Sounds like open world gives you too much freedom and you get bored. Try more linear games?
