NFL 2K5
-VZA-:
I wanted so much for this game to be better than Madden and in some ways it is. There's just a couple of things keeping it from being better. Number one... the animation and controls all feel stiff when compared to Madden. Number two... the receivers drop the ball way too much. I can understand if they drop it sometimes but you'll have a dropped ball at least once every possession. Don't get me wrong, it's still a solid ass game and it's definitely worth the 20 dollar price tag. It just isn't Madden. I'm not even a Madden fan boy, I'm just being honest with ya. The running game feels more realistic to me on this game and I like how the QB drops back and hops in the pocket to keep his rhythm. The best thing about this game is the presentation... it actually feels like you're watching a game on ESPN. Also if you get this on XBox, you can put your own songs during the TD celebrations and first downs. That's a very nice touch if you ask me. Overall it's a great game but if I had to choose just one football game this year, I'd have to go with Madden. 8.5/10
Two quick notes: one, sorry for the poor organization of this post but I wrote it all in one draft with no editing... two, i haven't played madden 2005 so i compared the game to madden 2004.

Its a great stratagey to sell this for 20 bucks, they're still makin a profit and now even people who are apprehensive about buying this are gonna pick it up. Hell, I'll pick it up, I have 2k3.
