I'm curious

I love Football Fifa but i can't play it cause im overweight and it sadden me. That why i stay inside the house and game like 15 hours a day.

Yeah I do play. In case of fifa/pes I played for 13 (plus academy) years in a small club of my hometown. Now I play with friends.

Apart of motorsport the rest of games I usual play (nba, madden etc) they are all pick up games.

It's a bit of both. In high school I played two seasons of basketball and one season of (American) football, and used to play sports games at the time. I will still play some sports games but of all the genres out there it's pretty much near the bottom of my list because I grew tired of how developers like EA kept making the same game over and over again each year with new assets.

Yes during childhood through early adulthood. Now, I'd rather become an armchair critic.

 

[Kuranghi]

Nah I played older, simpler sports games before they became like their current incarnations. I don't play sports for real either though, I'm not a competitive guy, I'm more motivated by other things.

Yes, and I can tell you, playing Madden is much more enjoyable than high school practices for 4 hours in streaming hot weather and trying to avoid multiple 230 pound men who are coming at you like a heat seeking missile at your knees.

But seriously, the entire reason I'm playing the sports game is because I've played those sports either recreationally or on a school team and have enjoyed the gameplay. I've never played Cricket or something like that so I would have no interest in buying that game if I don't know the rules or have investment in the personalities.

I have leg problems. Mine is crooked, so I can't play soccer, like I used to, when I was a kid. So fifa makes my dream of playing soccer come to true.

I am having fun with it on my x1s. I play it alot, its why I couldn't finish Spiderman on time, and I had to drop God of war, until I am done with spiderman. Those crazy tricks I do by accident is really great. I managed to do head goal by accident. Still can't do that.
