09:30 There is no more Discord server. It was a headache to moderate. There are plenty of resources online to help you with this, however. Check subreddits, the websites for specific emulators, and Google (or DuckDuckGo) is your friend. Thanks for watching!
I’ve been wanting to try out NFL 2k5 for the longest time, and the fact that it can be played on the steam deck is insane
And ur phone
I need to get the steam deck for Christmas.
@Mr. Blitz Damn
How much you want for that XBOX?
@@OGAROB I don’t think he’ll sell that to you bro 😭😭😭 ik I wouldn’t unless you ready to put a lil bit of cash out
@@kingelite8990 ik idc
It’s really cool how fans have kept these games updated with modern rosters
really goes to show that profit motive isn't the only thing causing people to do stuff
@@broncos435 if only the higher ups at 2k and ea would feel the same
how updated how? now way!
Recently emulated Madden 07 for the PS2 and its easily the most fun I've had playing a football game.
Did it take a lot of time? Im considering doing the same. I miss playing decent football games. Did you use rhe emulator above?
@@musicum22 I used the PCSX2 emulator, and the download took about 2 hours since I downloaded the ROM from Vimm's Lair on my browser.
@@mythic_rx7 what do you mean downloaded the ROM? Sorry im not familiar.
@@musicum22 he illegally downloaded the game iso...
Madden 08 is better
Thanks for using my gameplay! Madden 08 NEXT is awesome
Gonna be hopefully rebooting Madden NEXT and continuing ABAC dynasty soon, been really busy with real life basketball season.
Great video. I'm definitely going to try a few of these out I've been playing almost exclusively sports games these last couple of months after getting worn out of gran turismo. NHL 2004, Madden 06, and NBA 2k11. I like the vision cone in madden 06.
much love from ncaa next
I can't believe I almost missed this video! You should be sponsored for the steam deck because this is a life changer for me. I live in my car (by complete choice, I love it!) but sometimes I miss games aside from my psp and gba. This steam deck is going to be a game changer for me and I can't believe I almost missed this video.
Currently playing Madden 08 on the ps vita, I feel like a kid again. Love seeing the roster that I once remembered!
Try madden 08 on wiiu with gamecube emulator. Using the wiiu gamepad it look like a portable ps2 game.
Keep it up SDTV. The younger NFL buffs need to know about the great Gridiron games and how to access them .
always love to see a new upload from you!!❤
Thank you so so so much for this video, i wanted to buy a Steam Deck for these exact reasons but wasnt sure the games would work on it and you answered all my doubts. THANK YOU!!!!
Appreciate you making all these. When we get a good simulation, you and I are going h2h 🙏
Thank you I been wanting to play the old maddens for so long. I always wanted to try the create a team mode
Dude thanks for this video. I had no idea this was possible on a steam deck. I barely even knew what a steam deck was. Valve should be paying you commission
Tecmo Super Bowl was my first modded sports game. Tecmo Repository has a bunch of roms and even include 32 teams, new roster and logos.
Been waiting for this video since I got my Steam Deck!
Good to mention that The Xbox Series S/X can run Xenia for unsupported/deslisted Xbox 360 games, as well as emulating PS2, PS1, PSP, Wii, Gamecube, Gameboy, Dreamcast, N64, and Windows 98, and the list is just growing, along with Microsoft's official emulators for Original Xbox and Xbox 360.
How do you do that?
Thanks for including MLB 10: The Show. I bought a copy for my PS3 a few years ago and it's by far my favourite The Show title. You should also give NHL 2K5 and Nascar: Dirt to Daytona a try
Dirt to daytona is the GOAT of console nascar gaming in my opinion.
I knew a sim racer that raced irl and he tried the game at hard-core settings and said it was scary close to how it would be irl.
@@dennisbowen452 He's not wrong. I raced stock cars too and that game is really close
Too bad mlb the show on ps3 is still not playable because of various graphical bugs.
Love College Football Revamped. Finally learned how to edit jerseys two weeks ago and for me personally it's a game changer although I still have a ton to learn.
Hey man, great video as always, could you do a full video about the Simulation Football League? They’re a great community and they’re moving to a 4K version of NFL 2K4 to expand on the league they’ve built.
Great informative vid, I guess I've really been out of the loop, didn't even know there was a functional OG Xbox emulator at all, that was a pipedream I wished so badly existed back in the day, I'll definitely have to check it out :) I'm getting a million times more satisfaction playing older titles on emulator than anything that comes out these days. Recently got into 2k5 myself and am still getting the passing down, am pretty good running. It's in an entirely different league and world than the old ps2 maddens that I used to play all the time lol
I've been lucky enough to always know how to emulate well enough, and now have the means to do so. I do keep up with the modern stuff (I personally enjoy NHL 23 and MLB the Show 22 and literally use madden to open packs because I like to do trading)
I've been emulating NCAA 06, and boy, it's been a fucking blast. It's addicting, it's demanding, and it's amazing. There are so few games that make me feel the way classic PS2 football games make me feel. 10/10.
what are good sites to download games from?
@@kkapsupremekk2019 vimm look this up this they have every system
Really good video!
I have been saving to get a gaming laptop. Definitely looking forward to make the most of it with those emulators. Especially NCAA Football and College Hoops. I wanted to get a Steam Deck but I am afraid some games are not able to being fully run in it. Does a laptop with a 3070 have enough power for current and past games?
Great video!
Playing 2k8 on Series S was surreal, so was playing Backbreaker. Never thought I'd get to experience these games.
how I found a way to emulate ps2 games but I want go to the next generation with 360/ps3
were you able to get the PS3 version of 2k8 on the series S?
@@LeSynth I haven't tried to yet
@@JusBoogie he prolly jus used da original game
how did you get 2k8 and backbreaker on the series S? I thought emulating that generation was impossible right now with a Series S.
Love the vids
I play MLB the show and other older football games on my phone via emulation with the PS1 emulator and PSP one. I'd be great to do another video on just emulation for classic sports games on older consoles than PS2!
Bri is so good at explaining things it's like an ad
I just got a new pc so this video is gonna help me out big time!
Excited for my steam deck lol got one ordered and will be mine by the 10th
Your content 🔥
Hey softdrink, do you think we could get a more in depth video on the emulation of football games on the steam deck exclusively? It seems like a great way for people to get to play some of the best football games made while on the go.
I literally love this channel
That's awesome fans have kept these video games with updated rosters it's cool
You should do a video dedicated to the best mods and mods you’d like to see
Can't wait till I'm able to play UFC Undisputed 3 and NHL 11 for the PS3 or Xbox 360 on the deck. There's been major improvements in the emulator's compatibility and performance, but not to the point where it's playable yet.
I’m on the Mod team for Madden NFL Rebuilt and it’s a cool companion to revamped if you’re into dynasty and want to see your players in the NFL
I still have a number of game breaking bugs while doing franchise for the 7th generation of consoles, but it’s exciting for these to even work on emulators.
Thanks for the info just got my Steam Deck.
Great video
@5:10 could you do a tutorial video on how to add the roster to RPCS3 ?
hey did you like madden 23? cant tell from your last 45 uploads
Havent tried it on steam deck but NHL 14 is also very solid on rpcs3. NHL blitz 2002/2003/pro are also solid on pcsx2. Same with NHL 2004 and the other games. You can emulate ps2/ps1/gamecube on the xbox series consoles too, and the emulation is solid on there.
Can plz help me? I downloaded the dev mode nd everything. Do u need a usb portable for any of this
I tried to emulate 2K5, NCAA 06 & even Arena Football on PCSX2, but it kept slowing down & lagging, no matter how much I changed to options on my emulator. I couldn’t get Xemu working on my laptop either, but I’ll try again some other time. I got Madden NFL 06 on ps2 to work somewhat. Loved the game when I was little. Superstar mode got a lot of playtime with me. 😄
Try the GameCube version of Madden 06 on Dolphin emulator, it should run smoother if your laptop isn’t very strong
@@SOFTDRINKTV Oh yeah.
I forgot that 06 was for the GameCube also. 😂
Seems to be working a lot better than my ps2 one.
Thanks man. 👍
i need to figure out how to do those roster updates and whatnot
I’d love to play 2K5 with updated rosters if it’s possible. Makes me think I should get a steam deck.
It is! Someone modded it with updated rosters and unis
I don't even like sports simulation games - anything more complicated than World Series Baseball on the Saturn or Fight Night Round 2, and I'm out.
But you're one of the few people who can translate their appeal for the rest of us. I watched the entire video, without looking at my Switch, DS, or Vita even once.
Well done.
Can you make a list of the best games to emulate to play? (Against friends preferably)
This video persuaded me to get a Steam Deck. Have had it a couple days now. Greatest decision I’ve ever made. Absolutely dumpsters on my modded Switch.
Wish more sports games used the better rendering features of Xbox and PCs back in the day. Look at NFK 2k5, it's using normal maps for Jersey wrinkles, which makes the models look higher poly than it really is. Most sports games of that time used flat textures and pc, xbox and gamecube ports did not feature normal maps because devs didn't bother making better assets for the platforms and just went with flat textures for ps2 [or used specular maps which did not look as good as normal/bump maps].
Wish there was this kind of modding for a NHL video game
2KHS is a mod for NHL2K11 that fully converts the game to have HD graphics, classic rosters and very much improved realistic gameplay. - from the 2KHS website
NHL games are still good though. lol
@@lilsavdabest Lol no they are not haven't been good since 14
nhl 04 rebuilt is fantastic
Depends on what you grew up with but there is a mod of the fan favorite NHL 94 with updated rosters, commentary, and other tweaks at least through the 2022-2023 season.
Once I get some time to really understand how to do it, I’m definitely getting that (NHL 94), NCAA 14 College Football Revamped, Madden 05 mods, and Madden 03 & 04 and 99 for nostalgia, and my favorite sports game ever NBA 2K11.
Maybe I jumped the gun a little, but I don’t care. When I came across this video last week an learned of the Steam Deck as well as its emulation power I was sold. I bought one the next day lol. The ability to play NFL 2K5 an NCAA Football 06 with updated graphics an rosters is amazing for me! These two games take me straight back to my childhood. I can’t wait to get mine delivered. Very excited!
I’m thinking of doing the same. How has it been? Would you recommend me buy one?
i would love if you make a video about mlb power pro series. My life mode(my career) and Success mode(story mode) are very unique. I believe my life mode should be the standard for sport game player career mode. Nowadays the series(japan exclusive) also has an dynasty mode but for high school baseball(fell like an board game with the goal to create the best players,they even have online tournament). I would love to see your opinion about the"heavy focus on create player game mode" of power pro franchise which make it very unique compare to western sport video game imo.
Please do another Sarasota Seaman video. Pleaese, it was amazing.
Hey if you don’t mind what setting did you use on NBA ELITE 11 I’m struggling with it . Thanks
Are you using emudeck for xemu and ps2 emulation? For nfl 2k5 etc?
Can you play ANY PS or Xbox game on the steam deck? I ask because I want to play, not only the sports games you mention but also other games like my personal favorite Midnight Club 2 and a couple others. If so, I'm so gonna buy a steam deck.
Any wrestling games that emulate well on steam deck? I played a lot of WWE 2k14 on PS3. Inferno match plus the ability to upload custom music as entrance themes. It was the last time it was possible without actually modding.
Been emulating on Steam Deck with NFL 2k5, NCAA 06, and other great sports games and it's been awesome! The only thing is, I can't seem to get All Pro 2k8 to run as smooth. It seems to be very choppy most of the time. I'm sure it's some obvious setting I need to tweak in the SD but no one's listed out their setting for it yet.
Yeah, he doesn't say you will need to ticker with the RPCS3 settings to get All Pro Football 2k8 to run smoothly on the Steam Deck. I ran it on my first attempt and the game displayed many graphical glitches with textures for uniforms not popping up and being all black
The perks of having a PC. RPCS3, PCSX, PCSX2, Dolphin. The possibilities are endless. I just copped NFL 2K23 and it’s literally shitting on MADDEN 23! That’s sad as hell.
I remember the first ps4 game I played nba 2k15 the graphics blew my mind I felt like I was in the future the day some emulates it I don't even know what I'll do with myself
Could you do a video on how to get the mods for the 2k footballs games on the steam deck? I have both games but not sure how modding works
I have computer and would like to try the Xbox version of NFL 2k5 but where do download game or do I have to get an Xbox series x
Only thing with transfering draft classes from ncaa14 to Madden 25 is that glitch where all the imported players have 0 toughness, making them basically unusable because of injuries
Emulating Madden 08 and Ncaa08 during the pandemic kept me sane
i feel the main reason these games were so much better was because this was when no one gave a rats ass about certain visuals. Complaints about towel location or having authentic cleats and accurate gear per player or FACESCANS. This was when they took a .png and wrapped it around some polygons and designed everything else in detail. it was damn good then and still is now. Once i figured out how to mod the xbox buttons into PCSX2 to coincide with my xbox controller on PC it was a wrap.
I’ve been playing madden 05 on my steam deck since July
I miss good sports games. Sigh...
Great video, as always man. Love your content.
Do you have a tutorial? On how you to get NFL 2k5 on the Steam deck ? Or any other of the games ?
Makes me want to figure how to do all of that !
Really appreciate the Steam Deck inclusion
Can you also play nba 2k10 and 11 on the steam deck also how hard is it getting the emulators up and running I’m not very tech savvy
Playing SvR in 4k soo lovely😅‼️
Is vulkan a must for these old games and what does vulkan even do ? Enhance performance and quality ?
I just have to say this is dope but the portable madden mod for the ps vita was first shoutout lorak and reesh
Steam owes you commission for this video lol
Definitely thinking about getting it
Buddy got me thinking bout it in his live 😅
Thanks soft! Wanna shout out PPSSPP as you can play the PSP version of Madden 08 which is basically the ps2 version on your phone really easily.
ive been loving epsn 2k5 on my series s
Oh I'm in for a good time.
Please give your steam deck settings for nba elite 11. Got it running well on my onexplayer but havent cracked the code on deck settings yet
could u give a tutorial for xemu 2k5 PLEASE ive never played and really want to. I found how to get the hard disk files I just need to BiOS in the ROM explained
Ive been playing nfl2k4 on my ps2. It's great.
Gonna have to see if there are mods for emulating older nhl games
I feel like us sports gamers are always left out when it comes to gaming. No innovation, one company making one version of a certain sport, and when Microsoft did game ports from the Xbox 360 they didn't bring over any popular sports games. Everyone was hoping for ncaa14. But, I'm so thankful that we have modders in our community! I've thought about the steam deck but I was disappointed when I found out it couldn't emulate ncaa14. So I bought something that can emulate it But I don't remember the old ones so maybe I'll download them on my PC and see if I can do without ncaa14
How do you buy/download the game onto your steam deck? I don’t see it in the steam store. Thanks!
Bro please tell me how you got all pro to run on steam deck no matter what I can’t get past the loading menu before the main menu
Can you help me set up xemu? I'm struggling getting it set up. I've sett up an ps2 emulator. But for some reason I'm struggling with xemu
Needs to have playerbase for the older ps2 and ps3 sports games they are great
I can't wait for maximum 2023 to come out
i play ncaa 14 in 2k and the road to glories are so fun
Now I want that Steam Deck so badly 🎮
Can u do a tutorial on how to emulate the Xbox versions of nfl 2k5 and the other games on steam deck? So desperate 😅😅
I'm so jelly, dat xbox version of 2k5 looks ridiculous, it always was the go to version back in da day
Did you use an official 360 hard drive to run it?
football life 23 ... u should include them next
You just gave me the main reason to buy a Steamdeck... NCAA Football 2006 or any PS2 NCAA Football is best ever
