I tried to redisign the AFL logo to look like the orginal UFC logo, I'm 12 so expect some errors.

I'm Liking What I'm Seeing From AF1 So far!

20 Upvotes

i know it's only been one week but i liked what i saw:

-#1 cannot be overstated: The games are on Youtube which makes it MUCH MORE likely for me to watch! I watch sooo much tv and sports on-demand. No paywall BS, this is a huge factor for niche leagues that for silly reasons the NAL and IFL went to premium services (paywall) just to watch most games

-good camera angles (for the most part). Sometimes indoor/arena leagues can have really whacky camera work that makes it hard to follow the game. Specifically the Michigan/Kentucky game had a higher angle that i thought was good

-high level of play

-rebound nets are a fun and unique element to the game

I stopped in at a gas station not long ago that was doing a large fundraiser for MS research and one of the things they were selling was old Milwaukee Iron jerseys. The price and cause were both good so I snatched this one up.

Vote for the Arena Football game for backwards compatibility on Xbox!

I started a fan voting site where users can vote on games they'd like to see Backwards Compatible on Xbox, and have even gotten some recognition from folks at Xbox.

It's not a petition, more of a place to centralize demand for these older games to be playable again. XboxGamePreservation.com is the site.
