You made a valid point but still even if VC had the rights to put out another edtion of their game I'd bet guys would still find issues with it...its just some peoples nature to look at the glass as half full as it is to see it halfway empty and dispite its short comings as for being the latest and newest addtion for the now defunk 2K Football series, I along with some other 2K fans have found it better to at least give it an effort to keep the base core of the game going and still enjoyable for what appears to be replay value!!!
I can see where you're coming from though and wish such a game did exist but the reality of it all is it doesn't in the brand new tradition of new and exciting for 2006 and beyond but for some of us the game already had issues and complicated settings that fell short of being the perfect game anyway.
No we didn't fix all of its gameplay and oddities that are already know in the game but neither have we just abandon it like yesterdays news...its still just as good, no wait maybe better then what had been before in certain ways and most of them have been improvements to at least find the game just as enjoyable if not more.
Like I said no we didn't fix all the gameplay issues and no we didn't fix thoses crazy settings that give guys fits and what not but I know at least for me the game was worth my time to keep playing it and make whatever changes and improvements possible and it all wasn't easy but guess what...I among others did something about it when the VC crew couldn't!!!
I saw the grass on the other side and yeah it was very pretty and very shining new as in the big thing but wasn't impressed all that much as I'm sure alot of other guys weren't either but still some were and thats ok.
Nothing wrong with wanting to stay with what still is the best Football game on the planet (IMO) just a little dated by todays standard and does include features that are still superior to its one time rival, the rosters are a vast improvement from its 2004 roster base and online update dated 01-15-05...long time with nothing from the VC crew huh?
The rosters and their edits (or without edits) are pretty much on the money and done with detail to include most if not all important updates to present time that you won't find online but here so why not take advantage of em' and continue to play the game with something that makes it still worth playing for a little while more and perhaps beyond for some guys!!!
Rice,Brown,Smith,George and others have gone their ways into retire and left the 2K series to fend on its own. Guys like me still want one more year (and then some) from the game and what it has to offer despite the flaws that can be worked on an improved to a point where its still playable and updated to rival yet still its newer more prettier,shiny one time competitor in the form of the next big thing, (Next Gen Madden) so its here and didn't impress as first precieved I imagine in time it will and thats ok but right now as I see it 2K Football is still the game to pattern after and they missed the mark this time around...2K Football is still here in this format we've presented and its suppose to be old, outdated and stripe of all its rights to exist for 5 or 6 years but some smart innovatived guys here at "OS...Da Spot" thought otherwise and chose to keep it going because its a better more realistic and absolutely more polished game of Football in all its presentation for a video Football game...buts its suppose to be flawed and settings that won't fix the game...maybe but its still the better Football game even now with updates and fixes that haven't done it all but improved better then what it was!!!
Its here if you give it a fair chance and rivals anything Madden has to offer in the versions we've presented here, just something we wanted to share and keep having fun with without going thru the rendered sentence of 5 to 6 years with no 2K period nothing,nadda,zip...just a few guys who have a passion for the game and what it has to offer!!!
Holla Back y'all
