This game on PS2 takes forever... Load times are easily 30% of game time.
I ended up simming through some important stuff because I got tired of the load times.
I was using Green Bay. I figured, since Favre has one foot in the retirement home, I could get a QB in my second draft, or with my second pick of the first draft and mentor him under Favre for a season.
AJ Hawk was taken overall #1 by Houston.
With the 5th pick, I got Reggie Bush. He immediately became my starting tailback. My second pick, too good to pass up at that #37 overall, was Nick Mangold.
Hawk, Holmes, and Carpenter were all first round picks. Carpenter to Seattle, Holmes to Dallas.
Other notables from the draft:
#2 Saints - Michael Huff
#3 Titans - Matt Leinart
#4 Jets - Vernon Davis
#7 Bills - Mario Williams
#8 Lions - DeAngelo Williams
Browns - Tamba Hali
Ravens - Chad Greenway
Falcons - Chad Jackson
Dolphins - Jay Cutler
vikings - Hlata Ngata
Chargers - Mathias Kiwanuka
Chiefs - Vince Young
Redskins - Laurence Maroney
Bengals - Sinorice Moss
Panthers - D'Brickshaw Ferguson
Steelers - Brodie Croyle
My first pre-season game, ont he second play, Bush broke a 74 yard TD run. We scored once more the whole game, a pass from Favre to Newly aqcuired Michael Jenkins.
I returned the game to Blockbuster yesterday. It kept freezing up on me after my first pre-season game trying to access my Management Meeting. These are meetings with the owner you can't bypass. So I could no longer continue the game.
The disc itself looked like any other rental. It looked like the last person to have it drug it behind their car on a string to return it.
