ESPN NFL 2K5

I can bet anything the next 2k NFL title will just suck just as bad as all pro football.... everybody seems to forget they have made a Football game Recently and just jump on 2k5 as the last game. 2k5 > madden 05 and best NFL game of "The Time"... Madden
12 > NFL 2k5( obvious 2k trolls and think otherwise)

Meh its better than some other sports titles like MLB 2k series and meh the show is just as bland as 2k. Madden isn't Great as far as commentators but isn't the worst imo. the best for a Football game was NFL 2k5 ( only talking about commentators) which
had ESPN branding all over it which was nice

I never played ESPN 2K5 but I am always hearing about. What made this game so amazing?

Any possible way we could get more original xbox sports games backwards compatable? Like nba street vol2 or 3, fight night, mlb baseball 2005, nhl hitz 2003, espn nfl 2k5, tony hawks underground, ssx on tour, any of the mlb slugfest’s, nba ballers, nfl
blitz 2003, and possibly need for speed underground and hot pursuit 2? Just some idea’s since there isnt many original xbox sports games that are backwards compatable

I upsets me that EA has Football (American) on lock. The 2K ones actually made EA work on their football games back then, now they can literally copy and paste and update rosters and still make millions...

Next year is the last year of EA's exclusive contract with the NFL. It will be interesting to see what will happen when that contract is up.

I think the only sports title were the 2K version is better than EA's version is in basketball. The NBA 2K series completely destroys the NBA Live series in terms of quality and sales.

The NFL will renew their contract with EA.

NFL 2K5 was a pretty awesome game with plenty of interesting features, but despite what many think, it just was not better than Madden that year. The biggest reason why so many THOUGHT it was better was because it launched at $20 compared to Maddens $50.
This is coming from someone who loved the game too. It just wasn't as good as Madden. It was pretty much confirmed when 2K tried to do football again with All-Pro Football. The game was terrible and it WAS ESPN NFL 2K5, just minus the NFL licensing(and if
you need the licensing to be good, then it isn't a good game)
