I found the list of rules in Pinball FX, but it was kind of hard to find and written in tiny text. Pinball Hall of Fame does a better job at that, which is now Pinball Arcade on current systems.
I've started to read the rule sets for tables. Once I know the goals, I can try and meet them. I usually don't get very far but it makes it more fun when you know what the goals are.
I really liked the Mario Galaxy games but I got stuck somewhere in each of them that made me stop. It's always some timed jumping thing that I fail several times that gets my goat.
I'll get to hockey sometime soon. I'm going to do some bowling and pinball this month, but some week in between championships I'll play hockey and simulate a Flyer's game.
I saw that division change on a website but didn't understand it. I haven't really followed hockey closely for a while even though I hold it as one of my favorite sports.
I'm tempted to simulate a whole season, but I don't think I'd get through it all. So I just do a single game at a time.
The Monopoly championships don't have a date yet but it's supposed to happen sometime next Fall. It would be neat to watch it. I've seen snippets in a documentary I watched once, the name of which I forget now.
I've stopped buying games on sales for the most part. I use the wish list on Xbox now instead. If the stars align right, I'll buy one of them, but only if I'm going to play it right away.
Good luck on your goals.
Madden on Rookie difficulty is basically "let the player win" mode. The opposition can't tackle you except in the last minutes of the game. Their quarterbacks miss throws like crazy. It's fun at first but then it gets old. I'm going to ramp up the difficulty next time.
All the classic RPGs were influenced by DnD, which was derived from Chainmail, which was a medieval warfare game. Lord of the Rings, Game of Thrones, Excalibur, Conan, the list goes on and on. What's with our obsession with medieval times?
That's cool. I always wanted to play the Pro Pinball games.
I got into video pinball with the Pinball Hall of Fame games that came out on Wii and Xbox 360. I still have them too.
I wanted to check out Wii Sports Resort but I never got it. My library may still have it though
I remember playing tennis in Wii Sports with another friend of mine. He got so darn good at it, no one could beat him.
