BHS Review!!!
After playing this game over 100hours plus. I've never gotten tired of it. Seems there are only a few things that really bother me about the game, and it has to do with options basically.
Let me begin my review with the bad things first.
First off, the CAP system is horrible. There are no real given options to creating your characters face. Compared to NBA 2k7, and College Hoops. This is a poor attempt. Also the team selection option is simply poor. You can control any cpu created teams. Meaning to play 2-player you would have to create another team. Thats stupid and should be fixed in the next game.
Also no having the option, to fix the rosters on cpu created teams is bad. I hate playing against the firebirds or the beast. And they have the same RB or QB as I have. Sometimes even the same DB and DT, it sucks. Sometimes the cpu will hurt my player in an injury just so both won't play throughout the game. That is poorly done, and we should have an option to change the players around.
240 legends isn't enough, and to have limited CAP options, doesn't give us enough to add all the ones that are missing to fill some rosters.
Plus all-time greats are missing all over the place. Tony Dorsett, Bo Jackson, Michael Irvin, Deion Sanders, and many more. That could have easily fill the blanks.
On a good note, the game has a great presentation. It has very solid gameplay, controls on the field offense and defense are remarkable. This is where 2ksports have always been successful.
The stadiums are amazing and the level of detail proves that these are true Current Gen stadiums. This is what we've been waiting for since the Current Gen systems were released and they shine greatly on both systems.
Crowd A.I. and response is good, and they truly react to whats on the field. Refs make good calls! And the cpu on All-Pro level is just rediculous. You will have to earn every down.
Ok! Dan and Peter returns, but with alot of old commentary mixed with new things. Which isn't a bad thing, but isn't a great but could have been alot better. Even though its leagues above anything else that out right now, in Current Gen Football games.
There is no franchise, but the season mode is still pretty nice, and well done. No weekly wrap-ups. But still a great time each game, none the less. Overall its a good game.
This game is a must buy, and has alot of potential, especially being the first in its series.
My rating would be 8/10 can't wait to see whats next to come in 2k9.
