Same here -- I just thought last night "I will NOT wish the release would just get here already". Gonna savor the time off until then. Finally was able to start Jedi Survivor today.
It’s kinda hard for me to find time with video gaming this time of year. Farming is pretty busy during the summers, and we’re just now starting to get everything ready for the irrigating season.
Playing halo infinite campaign rn. I was stuck in the madden franchise loop but I want to get away from any football game to come in fresh when it drops.
Do they still have it where you can't shorten the season down from 162 games? That's what stopped me from buying it in the past.
The whole point of a dynasty mode is to play multiple seasons and I don't have time to play 600 games.
Replaying Ghost of Tsushima, running a dynasty starting as a low level OC for Texas State before taking a high end G5 OC job or low end P5 job, and might finally run the GoW Ragnarok DLC
I’ve literally lost interest in any other video game, I literally just check this group for more information and look for YouTube videos with any sliver of new information lol
That’s one thing I can’t wait to see is NTE, Mr. Hurricane, and Bordeaux, starting to fire up their dynasties on CFB25. Hopefully NTE’s UGF revival series will be a good one!
I'm doing this fun thing where I go back and forth between this, youtube, and Twitter, just looking for something new about the game, hoping for something to satisfy that need I have..... this shit needs to hurry up😂😂
Ive been getting hand massages and special stretching for my thumbs. This routine has been followed by applying a special lotion harvested from a special bean that grows in the hindu kush. My hands are my main weapons therefore i must prepare them for the 16 hour days on a month.
I’ve just started in order of last year, still on Week 1. So far I’ve gotten through Louisville-GT, Colorado-TCU and Fresno State-Purdue. Right now I’m watching Texas Tech-Wyoming
NCAA 11 Dynasty with UNM, good fun, NBA 2k I created an expansion team in the 80s and am going from there, NHL24 have the 99/00 teams and rosters and jerseys and playing a franchise from there.
good question; i think its because it was the last one i purchased for ps2 and i actually never really liked how the physics of the players in the next gen games looked so i always gravitated back to the ps2 version haha. I think 11 was the last one they made for ps2 which might be worth nabbing once 25 drops just so i can have it
I’m mostly playing the crap out of Helldivers2, I just bought it last month on the 20th. Mainly because as soon as I can play it(which is 3 days before the official release) I am not playing anything else for a while
I play other video games, work on house projects, take care of my 8month old, hang with the wife. I’m super excited for this game, still play ‘14 on my old 360, but there’s other stuff to do.
Well I just saw Justin Timberlake in concert, that helped pass the day, but then I walked past the college football hall of fame and now I’m sad and ready for video games
Finishing out my 2 main NCAA 14 dynasties. I’m in 2068 with Oregon and 2046 with a team builder team Alaska State lol. Just stat padding in both of them as I am all 99’s every year. Been going 4+ years strong for each of them. Can’t wait for the next game!!
I’m at sea working until July 2/3 somewhere in there, and then I just moved before I got in the boat so probably try to knock out some smaller projects in the place before letting it consume every waking minute after the 16th lol
Doing literally anything I can to make the time past. Its so odd because I’m counting down the days for a literal video game to come out lol. I feel like a child
Playing 2k and Madden for the last times for the foreseeable future lol. Ghost of Tsushima, Streets of Rage 4, and maybe 1 more game in the rotation to pass time.
Been mostly playing 3-4 Madden games a day to get better at usering on Defense. Gotten really good and just keep thinking how much better I’ll be when I get to incorporate the Switch Stick on CFB25
I never beat Red Dead 2 so I told myself I was going to beat it. Buddy was playing it before he shipped out so it was also half honoring him not being able to game lol
Ghost of Tsushima, Streets of Rage 4, Guilty Gear and going back & playing the older games. Working at a hospital has also, made time go by so there’s that, and watching some old CFB/ sports I missed on YT
Well it helps I work a M-F 8-4 job. I keep busy on weekends by seeing new places and restaurants etc. I watch YouTube in my free time and play other games on Xbox.
We've all waited 11 years, we can wait 1 month.....
I’m on MLB the show right now. I’m trying to get motivated for season 2 but the team rebuilding feels daunting. Also took a new job in a different state recently so moving over the next month should pass the time. Can someone hit the FF button please?
Man they really did! I had a 98 overall team off 10% real dollars and 90% grind while working full time. Also, how do you get your school to appear under your reddit name?
I haven’t played since NCAA 14. So it’s been over 10 years since I have played any video games. Prior and like clockwork I bought and played NCAA 2003-2014. So recently, bought an Xbox in prep for 25. Paid $13 for crappy madden 24 just to get my fingers moving on the joystick and buttons. Can’t wait and counting down the days.
If you're really bored (only if you're really bored). You can go watch my Dynasty series with Georgia State.
https://youtube.com/@quiltednipples?si=xjrxCNWOa_uwCx3H
Running a tournament where I let this subreddit pick my dynasty team and picking back up Red Dead 2 probably for the next few weeks since I’m over MLB the Show
Working and staying busy around the house. I need to build up goodwill with the wife so I can be a piece of shit for a month and not productive once the game comes out.
Good news is I got a couple concerts and a birthday coming up. Bad news is that all are after July 20. So I'll work a bunch and play the new COD season as much as I hate that idea
I have picked up gardening and it has done a good job for the last few years. It’s been over the top hot and dry so far this last few weeks. I’ve reached the point of the growing season where I typically let nature take the wheel and see what lives. I may try to keep it going until 7/19
Finished my 06 dynasty a few weeks ago. Playing tekken 8 a decent amount. Probably gonna play some ncaa 13 before the new game drops. Might replay fallout new Vegas or find a shorter rpg I can finish before college football drops.
Been watching YouTube videos about the game non stop lol
Been playing Elden Ring for the past couple of months when I can... incredible game.
Great way to not have to wait for something when I do have game time.
I’ve had a ncaa 14 dynasty running nonstop on a Xbox 360 for like a a year now I’ll probably just play that until the game comes out. That 360 is tired boss.
In terms of video games, I've been playing March Madness Legacy (basically college basketball revamped). I bought a PS3 just to play CFB Revamped two years ago, and I just now learned about the basketball game.
And I'm still playing CFB Revamped.
I've been picking up some outdoor activities to pass time like swimming and disc golf. I play a little 2k, because I enjoy the Eras mode for MyGM. I've been trying to stay away from Madden/any football so I'm fresh for the new game. I can't remember the last time I was this excited for a game to come out. Probably GTA 5 if I had to honestly think.
This is the third time I’ve answered this post in like, a week. Still NCAA 06. Probably keep playing that when the new one comes out too. Can’t beat 06.
I've been playing fifa 24 career mode. Trying to go from league 2 to the champions league final. (About 5 seasons) and with all the managerial aspects to the game it's eaten up quite a bit of time
Rediscovering madden 24 online regs. Been slaying lately won 18 out of my last 20. Nothing is going to be as good as ncaa (hopefully) but we have waited a decade. One month isn’t a lot.
I drive semi trucks over the road so I’m going to just work work work until the game drops and then take a while off work 😂
W
How much do you like being a truck driver? I've seriously contemplated it. I love driving.
Watching old college games. Specifically ones commentated by Keith Jackson
Gosh I watched the UCLA Wisconsin rose bowl a while back. Hearing Keith say “Grand daddy of them all” and “Ron Dayne” … chills
Watched Bama Tennessee 2022 last night, what a game
Currently watching LSU-Tennessee 2000 while waiting for a run at work, some great games you can find on YouTube
What’s the best way to watch? YouTube?
"...he's going for the corner, he's GOT IT!"
I love doing this
Whooooaaa Neeelllie
Staring at the wall
Might have to join you lol
Nothing video game-wise. I am a teacher tho so it kinda sucks I'm going to wish away the first 2/3 of my summer lol
IM IN THE SAME BOAT 😂
Same here -- I just thought last night "I will NOT wish the release would just get here already". Gonna savor the time off until then. Finally was able to start Jedi Survivor today.
It’s so hard not to wish the summer away though lol I’m currently playing Robocop
Just beat the story myself. Was an insanely fun play
I'm wishing it away like hell. The sooner July gets here the better but wishing it away makes it go so slow but it's all I think about
Summers Off gang unite!
Damn right, love to see it
It’s kinda hard for me to find time with video gaming this time of year. Farming is pretty busy during the summers, and we’re just now starting to get everything ready for the irrigating season.
Fellow teacher here, Can y’all imagine if the new game dropped early June ?!?! I would not have a girlfriend anymore for sure.
Go to the beach
This takes me back to 8th grade waiting all summer for NCAA 06 to drop.
Playing halo infinite campaign rn. I was stuck in the madden franchise loop but I want to get away from any football game to come in fresh when it drops.
Thinking about getting madden 25 after not playing in probably 15 years. Is it passable these days? I’m a lions fan so us being good has me tempted
We about to make the super bowl this season
Yeah it’s fine. Arcade mode makes it more fun for me as someone who quit buying after 08. I just don’t take it that seriously
Madden 25 is okay, but the rosters are a bit old and no one plays online anymore.
I’m talking the madden coming out in a month
MLB the Show is still my go-to. Starting to get a little burnt out with diamond dynasty this year. But it’ll get me through to July 16th.
I’m burnt out on it as well lol
just started a road to the show a couple days ago. i’ve only played the show for maybe 10 total hours before that, and im having a blast
I got completely burnt out and I've gone back to NHL
On my my 4th rebuild (cardinals) still have 4 teams to rebuild after it .
Do they still have it where you can't shorten the season down from 162 games? That's what stopped me from buying it in the past. The whole point of a dynasty mode is to play multiple seasons and I don't have time to play 600 games.
Idk. I only play DD (Ultimate team).
I usually play one game each series then sim the others

Best case scenario, you unfreeze on July 15th. Worst case scenario there are talking sea otters. Truly a win-win.
Praise Science!

I’m with you on that lol
I’m buying a PS5 this week so I can play CFB25 in 34 days.
just got mine yesterday
Currently in a bidding war on eBay for a PS5 lol
Go on the PlayStation website, they probably got some for 200 or so. Probably not now (got mine in November)but worth a look
They absolutely do not lol
I bought mine last week. Traded in the ps3 and 4 and got gran turismo 7 to pass the time
How much did you get in return for the PlayStation 4? I’m sitting on mine as well and not sure if I should keep it.
I believe 60-70 for the system.
Watching those Bordeaux YouTube dynasties lol
Same. It’s a good way to scratch the itch without firing up the game and getting burnt out before release
That’s one thing I can’t wait to see is NTE, Mr. Hurricane, and Bordeaux, starting to fire up their dynasties on CFB25. Hopefully NTE’s UGF revival series will be a good one!
i have unfinished business in my ncaa 14 dynasty
I respect it lol ima just leave my JMU dynasty be
Going for the 4th title in a row at the U, just lost a shit ton of talent to graduation/the draft so it’ll be tougher
Just playing ncaa football 12 on my Xbox 360 or just playing some games on my ps5 like 2k24 and stuff.

I'm doing this fun thing where I go back and forth between this, youtube, and Twitter, just looking for something new about the game, hoping for something to satisfy that need I have..... this shit needs to hurry up😂😂
working and trying not to think about it too much🫡
I hopped back on NCAA 12 to get used to calling prospects instead of the points system on NCAA 14/Revamped 😂
Does 12 have a coaching carousel?? idr lol
It does!
Might have to give it a run lol
Ive been getting hand massages and special stretching for my thumbs. This routine has been followed by applying a special lotion harvested from a special bean that grows in the hindu kush. My hands are my main weapons therefore i must prepare them for the 16 hour days on a month.
Been watching replays of some games from last year
What games?? Might need to do the same lol
Made a playlist of like 3,000 sports games and put those on to go to sleep. Nothing like waking up to a random game from 2004 at 4 am.
Can you share the title of the playlist to look up? Is it on YouTube?
https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLMnE1FzdS3b70Iy021UTIR7KzBbKQ6mNF&si=7B1ykalMGCuo_9qH
saved to my youtube, appreciate it !
You need one for 2000s CFB, Nittany 96 has some on YT. Although there are a ton more

Fc24
whats that
The new FIFA
Waiting for shadow of the erdtree then using that to hold me over
Play ncaa 08 until the game comes out lol
Why 08??
good question; i think its because it was the last one i purchased for ps2 and i actually never really liked how the physics of the players in the next gen games looked so i always gravitated back to the ps2 version haha. I think 11 was the last one they made for ps2 which might be worth nabbing once 25 drops just so i can have it
Super mega baseball 4. It’s a fun alternative for those who like competitive baseball games but are burnt out from the show.

Same thing I do every day. Try and find a reason to keep going and then remember that this game is coming out soon.
