It's great for tracking your fantasy football team, however it doesn't update on the fly like online sites and only shows the scores of games after all the games are played each week which they need to fix asap.

Well, I had downloaded their Fantasy Draft app for PSN (where it was free compared to the $5 they charge on XBL, don't ask why...) and it worked pretty well. Then, I bought this to track the live scoring, but it DOESN'T WORK. When I log into my account, I get the message "Unable to setup live scoring from FANTASY.EASPORTS.COM. Please try again later." Wonderful. Oh well, 80 MSFT points down the drain...

For ONE DOLLAR, or 80 MP, I will give this a shot.

Just a note, DECEMBER 20th is the ONLY SATURDAY game for the ENTIRE SEASON...

If you want a good guide to building a quick and dirty league:

www.xbox360achievements.org/.../showthread.php

There is a step by step league setup guide listed there. It took me all of about ten minutes to set my league up.

And yes, this has 200 Gamerscore in it. If you log in tonight, you can pop off 125 Gamerscore because there is a Thursday game going on RIGHT NOW.

XBox 360 - Tell you what, make "Live Draft Tracker" 80 points instead of 400 and I might give that a shot too. Or even better, Castle Crashers for 80 points since the online is uh... BORKED!

Does everyone in the Eastern Hemisphere come here to post about how mean Microsft? They probably think MS decides where EA is allowed to sell their product. Lol....*sigh*

stfu kthx k?

This will be awesome. I'll have this running on the 42" wallmount DLP right below my 65" DLP wallmount during the games.

Thank God *REAL* football is back!

Now all you UK and AU whiners - go play your Futbol Manager sims and leave us to enjoy our toys mmk?

Found the link from a possible EA producer that states the previous "game" and this one are really "applications" rather than XBLA games. I still wish the other application could have been the same price as this one to keep it more in line with what is being offered on the competing platform.

An EA fantasy sports tracker? So my CBS team wouldn't apply here. What a waste of time. Who in their right mind would play fantasy football under Electronic Arts?

My wish, EA comes to it's senses and makes a game worth playing, or they close down.

Well I am glad to see that this "game" was made available for the same price that it is on the competition's console. I wish the previous game could be lowered to the same price or be made available for free to keep everthing even. I would get the other one then, so I could have both trackers on both machines. What confuses me is why these "applications" still do not have their own webpages or forums on Xbox.com? Are they XBLA black sheeps or something? @ Krenn VIII. I believe a developer of the Live Fantasy Football Draft Tracker came in and stated that it was not a game and was an "application" to compliment the Fantasy Football site and Madden 09. And the achievements are not that bad. They are easier than the previous offereing and make more sense in context.

Do we have any screenshots available? Does this update in real time? DirecTV has an option where you can set your Fantasy lineup, but sometimes it lags. But that's a much better option since you don't have to PIP obviously, it just pops on the screen on whatever channel you are watching. Hopefully it will be better this year.

I think the main reason to get this is if your computer isn't near your TV. For example, if your TV is on the first floor and the computer on the second floor, you'd have to run upstairs during commercial breaks.

Of course, most people would not plan to do fantasy football on EASports compared to other sites - NFL.com, for example. So this little gadget is probably designed to get people more interested in the EASports fantasy site.

If you call it a tool or a gadget, rather than an arcade game, it makes more sense. I think it'd be interesting if more 3rd parties came up with utilities like this. Though ditch the achievements... I'd hate to see achievements for a "CNN Headlines" arcade game like "Read 10,000 international news stories."

Can you really get 200 Gamerscore from this?

This is pretty pointless unless it was somehow integrated with the dashboard. Id rather just use my computer and watch the football games on my TV :)

I'll support this for 1 dollar....how cheap can you be to complain about the price of this game. I agree some of Microsoft's pricing is getting a little out of hand, but I don't expect everything to be handed out either. I 'took the plunge' of spending my pocket change on something that will let me see NFL stats on my xbox...pretty cool
