online roster updates?

[patrickgpe]

a while ago there was a website that allowed you to mail in your memory card and mailed you back an updated roster for any donation of your choice. Right now I have the following 3 games: mlb 07 the show, nba 2k8, and madden 08 for ps3 and was wondering what was the easiest way to get updated rosters for these games. I know i can sign up for the online ps3 service and update them, but i do absolute no online gaming so its not a good invention. i am looking for some help to get these rosters up to date spending as little as possible. thanks

To get the PS3 Madden rosters, you just have to sign up to play an online game. You don't actually have to play the game -- you get to do the roster update before reaching the team selection screen. (When I tried to start a game for the very same purpose, the other user was the one to back out.)

 

If you just want someone to open a game against in order to start roster downloads, message my PSN account (MilwaukeeBrewers), and I might be able to act as your formidable non-opponent if the timing works out.

forgive my ignorance, but i have done no online gaming ever. First of all do i have to sign up with a user name, and does this cost money?

Patrick, the "mail-in" websites are mainly useful for college games like NCAA Football 2008 or March Madness where the players' real names aren't given. The rosters they send back have the full names, so that if you're playing with Wisconsin you can use Tyler Donovan instead of QB #12. Of course, you could do it yourself, but it would take an eternity to finish....well worth the $5.00 for somebody else to do it for me.
