Was last year's PS2 version any good?

I bought last year's XBOX version early. It suffered from the "dropsies" again for the XBOX. However, I've read and heard that the PS2 version didn't suffer from that issue. Is that true and was the PS2 version any good?

Can both human and CPU keep their completion percentages above 50% consistently?

I find when you keep your % up, so does the CPU....mostly anyway.

I managed a season with 59% on the Xbox with JaMarcus Russell....80 Accuracy. The key is definitely learning to control the WR's, and developing a sense for when to launch the catch animation for each type of route.

The trick is, you have to try to catch it kind of early, so he reaches out for it - for some reason, body catches (like that dreaded hip catch) are going to drop it 90% of the time.

I still play it but I wish I could say I didn't have problems w/ dropsies...... though when I do manage to catch one or two in a row they seem to catch more when I have a consecutive completion streak going........

I have both QB's set at 25% for QBA and get 50-55% completion rates for human and CPU.

I play on PS2 version and just don't see these drops everyone talks about this year.

I still play it every other week.

I get around the same percentages when it's all said and done........

I'm not going to have any 22 for 26 days in NCAA football, but I'd say at least now it's at the low end of acceptable, which I could not say that for 2005, especially for the CPU.
