NFL2k5 is overrated. Every QB played exactly the same. The player progression was already coded into the game, the players moved with a glide, FPS football was useless and the crib feature was unintentionally humorous. Given that, the actual game of football played was nothing spectacular. Sure, it looked more realistic, but it didnt play any better than any football game that year.

It was a very good sports game, but had major flaws that seem to go overlooked. It seems to get more praise than its due because it is different than the 'other' game. It looked more like real football, but was very far off from what real football actually is.

If it had time, NFL football 2k8 would have been the best sports game ever made.

OH and bring back Cyberball...
