Nope, it wasn't, first year for football on next gen was Madden 2006.

not really into the madden thing with the same old same old rehashed for years and years.

when did you buy your ps3? if you have a non 60 gb one, you can't play ps2 games. They stopped making PS3 that were PS2 compatible pretty fast, so if you have not already tried, i doubt your PS3 can play PS2 games.

And yes 2K5>Madden

ohhhh cmon !!!!

you got to be kidding me, damn it!!

is there anyway to check to make sure?
i know i have the 80gb one, so that means for sure i cant play any ps2 games ?
if thats true, that burns my *** !!

either way thanks for the heads up.....and i guess i probably wont be playing any football then

You can pick up a used PS2 for about $50-$75 depending on where you find it. I had to get a PS2 so I could play my NFL 2K5. I have a 40 GB PS3 and it doesn't play PS2 games. I also have the Xbox version of 2K5 which is actually better. I play it on my friends XBox 360. I am thinking of getting a used XBox as soon as I can find one for a good price. I prefer to play the XBox version even though I like the PS3 better. You can probably find a copy of 2K5 for XBox at around 99 cents. I got my copy for the XBox for 78 cents. There was a sale on all used games. LOL! Hope this helps.

hey thanks for the info. steel
that got me thinking, i have an old xbox but are you refering to xbox 360 right?
2k5 was for the 360 not the old xbox right.

if so then the only thing i could do would be to buy a ps2 or an xbox 360 then.
hmmmmm if i do decide to get one ....hell now im not sure wth to do
good lord all this to play a 5 year old game ahhh you know its gotta be good then!!
now i just gotta decide which way to swing (so to speak) lol

btw any help on what 360 setup to get if i go that way?
i mean what type of package to get, im sure they probably have a bunch of different deals huh???
dont know much about the 360, have always gone with sony.

hell from the sounds of how good this game is they should remake for the ps3 i can dream....
thanks for any help.

You don't need a new system. 2K5 was for the old Xbox. If you have one, you'll be playing it on the best original system for it anyway.

As for the PS3, how old is your 80 gig? If it's one of the older 80 gb systems (that seemed to get discontinued as soon as it was introduced...lol), it also plays PS2 games...it wasn't just the 60GB one.

Kind of moot for this, as you say you have an old xbox (and the game is better looking overall on that system anyway), but it might be good info for other PS2 games you may want to go back to.
