    I just thought I'd set this thread up to get some discussion going about the possibility of an Xbox One league.

    First things first, how many players do we have wanting to play and is a connected franchise on Xbox One a viable option?

    I'm in anyway to start us off.

    I'll be in once I get a One and the game, but that could be 2 months away so probably best to carry on if we have numbers for a league.

    I'm knee deep in marathon training at the moment so don't really have time for Xbox.

    I think there are a few options.

    1) start a franchise with very few users
    2) do like the pfl and just have ranked games until Xmas
    3) stay 360 til xmas :pac:

    I'm good with one or two. Perhaps two would be fairer to everyone with a fresh start for most at christmas in an xbox one league?

    Option 3 is unfortunately not an option for me! Game is stunning on Xbox One though!

    Option 2 is a good bit of work if you want to keep anything more basic than W/L records. The easiest thing to do I think would be to create a shared spreadsheet and let the winner update it themselves.

    I think this may be a better system until we get up to at least 10-12 teams, which will hopefully be around December.

    The numbers really aren't there for this it appears. I joined a league on Madden PFL and I've seen that they're taking sign ups for another league to start at the minute.

    Anyone looking for an Xbox One league now should probably head over there and get their name down for it.

    then go to the Join A league forum and say youre Irish.. they love Irish

    decent standard, depending on the league will likely be better than the ours, but there is generally a much bigger difference in class

    i.e you could have 10 mikeys/perrins and then most of the rest are average

    Picked up one in Dundrum at lunchtime, ordered Madden off Amazon so should be up and running soon.

    I've a reservation code for Nutgrove if anyone wants it?

    You'd need to pick up the Xbox today and Destiny then Titanfall on Friday if I'm reading the availability right.

    Unfortunately I won't be able to commit to this lads. I'm already in a league on Madden PFL and starting a new job alongside having time for other games such as FIFA means that I won't have the spare time to compete in more than one Madden league.

    Well you know which league you should be in in that case :)

    Also where are you playing Fifa? Wouldn't mind a few friendlies or something, never played it before though.

    I know mate. If this one had started off at the beginning I definitely would have been in for this, but the PFL one is a full league so far more human games and I don't really want to pull out of it now after committing (though given the way I've started with the Titans it's tempting :pac:).

    I usually just play online season mode in FIFA. If you see me on some day and want a few friendlies just give me a shout. :)
