Stories from FIFA & PES
As explained in the previous post, the topsy turvy footy gaming situation has left me in a limbo, unsure of what to play and when, due to new consoles, release dates, modding availability etc, so it is what is is and as a result, i find myself here, playing a heavily modded PES 21 on… Continue reading Shake Yer Maracas
The quest for La Liga glory marches on, albeit at a slower pace than usual, since last week I've probably played 5 or 6 matches, a combination of work, getting jobs done on the house, and just feeling like doing other things, watching tv, treading, music etc, have all eaten into play time, but the… Continue reading Ain’t no sunshine when you’re gone
That was the message greeting us as I loaded up FIFA 20 this week, it's a totally different world out there than we are used to, life as we know it has changed for the foreseeable future, thank god for games as a way to escape the scary goings on in the world right now.… Continue reading Something is Brewing …
Since the last post, season two has come to a shuddering finish, with a very interesting end of season run-in. Our final league position was 7th, one more win could have seen us finish 4th, and grab a UEFA Champions League spot for next season, in such a stark contrast to what's going on in… Continue reading We’re heading for Venus …
Whilst we carry on the struggle to break into the top four in the league, our Europa league form has been exemplary, as the table above shows, we maintained a perfect record in the group stages of six wins from six games, to finish as group winners and secure a place in the knock out… Continue reading Plodding & modding away
Matches are coming thick and fast in this PC Modded Palace Career Mode, I'm already approaching December in season two, and the games just seem to get better and better. Rotating players where possible is key, keeping the same lineup week in, week out will inevitably lead to injuries, playing with the FIFER realism mod… Continue reading It just keeps getting better ….
Season one of my PC modded Crystal Palace Career Mode has come to an end, it has been a thoroughly interesting and enjoyable season, largely thanks to the PC platform and customization options it affords the player. FIFA 18 and 19 were both very good, enjoyable games with 19 specifically aimed much more towards the… Continue reading Halfway House
A few more games on FIFA 19 now that the work on the Man Cave is dying down, steady progress, and felt good to get a proper 6 match session in after a number of weeks of not really playing, the game felt fresh, alive and a lot of fun. Still top of the league… Continue reading Racićic and Clank
The above league table shows the final finishing position at the end of season 8. I needed to beat Huddersfield in the last match and hope Liverpool lost to clinch the final UCL place, I lost 2-0, and Liverpool drew, so ended up in 6th place. Disappointing, but Huddersfield were another of those fuckery matches… Continue reading Changing of the seasons
Relatively short update today as another busy weekend carrying on with the Cinema/Movie room renovation, and other commitments so gaming time was sparse, however I did squeeze a few games in, season 8 has reached mid December, we are still pushing at the top of the league, only 6 points separate 1st and 6th places,… Continue reading Tetley’s Finest
