Posted August 14, 2017 (edited) I started a new project with @Nintenchris whereby we are ranking every single football videogame ever. Here is some fluff from our website joypadsforgoalposts.com along with our first (rather long) episode. Would love it if we got some interest from here. Also totally aware the episode below has a distinct lack of footage from second game. This is being corrected! Football is an incredible game, nothing beats the first time you set out on the terraces, concrete steps up to the top of the stands that seem insurmountable at first but make you feel like a king when you scale them and look down upon the fabled green grass. It’s not just the magic of match day it’s everything around the game, getting your first full kit, trading stickers to try to complete that world cup album, playing fantasy football, putting a bet on at the bookies, the list goes on. For most of us getting to step on to the pitch and becoming that hero is something we can only dream of achieving , an adrenaline wealth laden life played out weekly in front of thousands of adoring fans, instead we are limited to plonking down those jumpers for goalposts and reliving those famous moments with our mates down the park. However there is one place where the playing field is leveled where anyone can score that overhead kick, that last minute equalizer, make that last ditch tackle and save a penalty to win the World Cup, the digital playground of videogames….. welcome to Joypads for Goalposts. Each episode my mate Chris and I will be ranking football games to find greatest football game of all time, rating them using a secret formula of mathematical equations and good old arguing over the course of 10 game season before declaring a champion each season. We also be tracking who beats who with the winner being awarded a trophy at the end of a given season. Over time these 10 show seasons will create an ever growing list as we rank every single football ever made, yes that means ever….which means we are totally aware this show will never end unless A. Videogames suddenly cease to exist or B. The world ends, take ya pick one of those is the only way the show will ever end!

Posted August 25, 2017 (edited) For this episode, we roll back the years to….last year 2016. Joypads for Goalposts was inspired by Adam and Chris’ football challenges down the years during Extra Life marathons and later on MadDog Marathons.
