Which did you love to play?

I loved playing ET's League cause I always won against the PC but i use to get smashed by my mate who goes by the name PC.

I hate ARL 96 cause I can never win

Can't you ever win when you play ARL 96'? It's like the easiest game out to win a game. I haven't play ET's League.

I couldnt stand ARL 96 because of the isometric view they had. The passing and running would change depending on which side of the field you were on which really peeved me off, in ET there was no such problem. You also had a better idea where the gaps were and could do some really neat plays on the blind side. One of my favourite parts of ET would have to be the updatable squads, which is where I though ARL 96 lacked.

ARL 96 had by the far the best crowd graphics of all time. It was also pretty easy.

It provided some great memories over the year or so that I played. None more so than my first ever win over Australia with NZ. I was down 7-0 at half time. I remember scoring early in the second half. It took me ages to work out how to kick, and as per usual I missed the conversion, leaving the scores at 7-4. With one minute left I had the ball in the opponents 20. I spun it out wide and it got to one of my props who was in the clear. I made a diagonal run for the corner and scored. One of those great moments, that I'll cherish in computer gaming...

What level do people play ARL on when they say its too easy
I play friendlies with 20 minute halves using Oldham against the EA All Stars on simulation and normally get a very difficult game. Although sometimes the computer capitulates easily and I'll win 100-0 or similar, its normally quite close.
ARL 96 is far from perfect but it craps all over ETs

ARL is the better game by far, its such good fun multiplayer, has far less faults than ET's which can be fun but also very frustrating. ARL does get boring eventually, the AI isn't the brightest and playing with the lower sides is frustratingly difficult since they can't tackle and never run down anyone when a break is made. But ARL is the better game, for mine.
