I was starting to expect the worst with the lack of media, but WOW, the sideline interaction, Elways unique throwing motion, the deep uniform customization, the running animationa. Absolutely awesome, I didn't think it was possible, but I'm actually more excited for this game than I was when it was announced to be in production.
I can't wait for Dan "The Man" Marino to lead my Calgary Hitmen to the championship!!!
Can't wait for this game. One question though, every retailer and games site has this listed to be released on 7/16, but on On the Spot the developers said it would be the end of July. Can anyone confirm a specific release date?Bfoxxx
I thought even the 2K publicist said July 16th, but maybe their pushing it back to avoid NCAA or maybe he just meant July 16th seeing as it's in the latter half of the month, although just barely. I would expect some confirmation soon though with the media blitz starting to pick up.
Madden is blah. NFL 2k5 is better than any Madden ever was. Before that year, Madden had always outsold the 2k series (and been a usually inferior product), but that year about as many people bought NFL 2k5 as Madden 05 (especially since it was cheaper in price, along with being a better game). EA Sports felt threatened so they signed an exclusivity deal with the NFL, ruining it for all sports gamers in the process and rendering themselves into a company satisfied with making average-at-best NFL games since nobody else can make one. Without competition, EA felt they could release relative trash and people would eat it up. And that's exactly what happened. Good thing 2K Sports wasn't about to lay down for too long.
All-Pro Football 2k8 will be superior to Madden 08 because, quite simply, 2K Sports is superior to EA Sports at making NFL (and NBA) games. The fact that it looks like 2k8 will look and play amazingly is just about the most unsurprising thing ever. And I can't wait to break some ankles and devour some souls with Barry Sanders, personally.
I seriously have no idea why there's so many sport fans. I personally find no interest and no point of view on how people can get so over excited in sport games like soccer, football, tennis and all that, I really find it boring - must be just me.Alpha172
Obviously you do have interest in people getting excited for a sports game. Why else would you take the time to read it and post a comment?
