I love that they will be using Legends with a mix of generic players. That to me means that we may see at least ten teams.

I'm ok with the season mode only without the franchise. To run a franchise just takes too much time, andI like to play with different teams.

From a graphical and animations standpoint, because it's 2K, I'm going to go ahead and trust them. 60fps and some signature styles from a few legends sounds great.

I also trust 2K to have a greast presentation and play by play team.

What I'm worried about now, and I guess I worry about this with all games, is what will the glitch be?

No Fatigue/No Substitutions?
Kickers that never miss?
Money Plays?
Bad AI? This would suck because I don't think we can edit ratings.
Predictable playcalling?
Bad clock management by the CPU at the end of the half and game?
Too many INTs?
Too many fumbles?
Dropped Pass bug like NCAA 05?

You get the idea. No matter what game it is there always seems to be something that's overlooked or gets by the testing phase. I'm hoping that they catch everything. I probably have unrealistic expectations but we'll see. I guess I'm really hoping that someone from VC/2K reads this post and makes sure that the game doesn't have any of the ridiculous bugs that we've seen with games in the past.

Some of those, however, couldn't be glitches if you are creating a fictional world.

Too many INT's? What's to say that a non-NFL league wouldn't have a load of INT's?

Besides, I don't really go out of my way to find problems with a video game.

I always thought that the "too many INTs" was a result of making dumb passes that would get picked if you made them in a real game but we normally get away with in videogames thanks to DBs usually having hands of stone. True, the CPU did it too often but when playing against good players INTs were held to pretty realistic numbers.

We appreciate your feedback, therizing02, but I don't know if you really need your own personal "I like this so far" thread. We have lots of other threads where people are discussing their thoughts on what we know so far. Let's keep these types of responses in there.
