Everything’s the same, except the score
As I sit here writing this post, the Green Bay Packers are putting a whoopin’ on the Minnesota Vikings. Ten years ago, I’d be too happy to write anything, not to mention way to drunk. Nowadays, football gets more of a “meh” reaction. Instead of watching football, I’d rather set up a board game or play a game on my iPad or PC. In a week or so, I should be able to both because Pro Strategy Football 2014 has been submitted to the App Store.
Pro Strategy Football 2013 was our runner-up for Sports Game of the Year last year, so 2014 comes from healthy stock. It’s got the plays, the strategy and a ton of configuration options that should make any football fan happy. Based on the previous version, don’t expect to manage a team’s finances and front office. The PSF series focuses more on the on-field antics, although PSF 2014 will have some team management aspects added — though developer Kerry Batts is still working on a career mode so you can carry over a team from season to season. That should arrive in one of the first post-release updates, we’re told.
From Owen’s preview back in early September, it looks like the 2014 edition should be more accessible to non-diehard football fans, as Batts has added help screens to every formation and all over the rest of the app as well.
Look for PSF 2014 to hit the App Store in the next week or so and an Android version is in the works as well. More screenshots after the break.
The new menus are designed to be clearer and help newbies.
It’s the Seattles vs. the Denvers. How much does an NFL license cost?
There are a lot of options to cater to both new players and hardcore football fans.
