I was searching for Madden 11 videos & came across this M11 vs 2K5 video

[huskerwr38]

The ONLY thing Madden has over 2k5 is graphics, imo, and 2k5 was made 7 years ago and the graphics aren't that bad. 2k5 gameplay, announcing, animations, tackling, etc. are far above Madden 11.

The announcing in Madden is simply atrocious, so many dead spots, Gus Johnson sounds like he has trouble controlling the volume of his voice. 2k5 announcing is much more smooth and natural.

Tackling in 2k5 is much much more realistic, because it has weight to it. If you notice in Madden sometimes a guy will get crushed from the left side, but then the ball carrier will somehow fall to the left instead of naturally falling to the right. Also, Madden doesn't even really have 2 player gang tackles, it's either one vs one, or pro-tak which doesn't even trigger that often.

I could go on and on.

Yeah 2k5 was an amazing game for it's time. Would I take it over Madden 11?? No freaking way but, the fact that this can even be brought up 5 years later speaks for itself.

2K5 had something that Madden lacks. Quality.
