Re: If You could bring back one game, for 1 season in 09 what would it be?
2006 was one of my favorite games because it saw the most exiting, brutal, and extreme matches of FIRST it was also one of the most assessable games for the general public. i know many of my non FIRST friends picked up on the game immediately (get the ball in the goal) and were quickly involved in the game, rooting for teams and robots, cheering when that shooter fired off a massive round of balls under heavy defense. the misses, flying off into the crowd, were another awesome symptom of that year, but weren't as brutal as the meteor strikes from trackballs from shooters this year...
overall the simpler games have been the most assessable and energetic of FIRST that i have seen. rack and roll was really cool. raising the bar was a great game because the crowd would cheer and applaud the sweet hangers, as well as the cappers. overdrive was fun due to the high speed and simple scoring (laps and hurdles 148, 118, 1114, im looking at you) as well as the rush for places at the end (330's knock and place comes to mind) made for an assessable and fun game
my vote is still for 2006, although 2004 and 2008 come close second
