I have to agree with you here. Even NFL 2k5 is not the same when I pop it in now compared to how I remember it. I did love MVP 05, but I remember one of the features of the game was the grass patterns. Hearing Kruk and Kuip talk about the grass before every game got annoying. I know it was a minor thing, but it still got to me.

MVP was great, but it's just speculation to say it would have continued it's dominance. It would definately have been beneficial to us to have the competition though.

P.S. Ichiro's swing was "dead on" in this series.
