AFL games ( console or PC )

[Ghost Dog]

Has anyone played the nintendo Wii AFL game ?

Was reading a few reviews. I know they have a playstation one.
What's the best AFL game out there at the moment?

I have the latest PS3 game. Potential to be good, but too bloody hard!

Controls are too complex?

The new AFL game gets a fair bit of discussion in this thread GD link (http://www.woof.net.au/forum/showthread.php?t=3885&highlight=video+games).

Personally enjoyed it only because it was AFL. Pretty average game in general. My youngest brother (11 years old) loves it.

I have the 360 version and the updated squads DLC.

It's funny because I don't play the game because it's simply too easy. I can put every reserves player in the team, put Boyd at FF and Hooper at FB and will still beat the best teams on the hardest difficulty with ease.

There was a game from around 95 on the PC were you could fight your opposition and knock them out. That's my favorite.

Although I gave the Nintendo version a fair old thrashing. I couldn't count how many times this happened.

I have the Wii version, good for a laugh.No real long term replay value.The mini games are probs the best part.

Controls are too complex?

Yeah, and the AI is not great.

That, or maybe... just maybe... I'm just shit at it!

Controls are too complex?

Yeah, they are a real pain in the butt. Far too many variations for quick play for me. I played for about 2 hrs, could barely get my hands on the ball, let alone move it downfield or heven forbid get a shot at goal.

It went back to EB games the next day.........or maybe I was crap at it also :D

Given the season we have had, I felt better with a shooter & putting a few caps in a few asses, mich more satisfying....:)

Haha. Right, a bit of first person shooter therapy never goes astray.
Thanks for that. Won't buy it given many of the reviews on here.

Ha ha, didnt see the similarity until you pointed it out. :D
The original game was based on the 2010 stats, so at least we should have been competitive seeing as though we reached the prelim again.

Yeah way too easy. Stopped playing it after the online community sorta died.

At least we've got a sense of humour.
