College Hoops for the PS2 has a ton of slow down and the shot stick thing is random. I spun the shot stick in circle motion because I forgot that it was a shot stick and I was trying to do a spin move and guess what happen I hit a 3 pointer. Gee thats a great invention. I agree EA is far from perfect but I think in general the games are less buggy and feel much more polished. I think there is a problem when a game like MLB 2K5 earns a better score then NBA Live 06. MLB 2K5 had nummerous bugs yet it still gets an ok score. Don't call me Mr. EA Fan Boy because I own NBA, NHL and CH 2K6 for the PS2. I also Live 06 and NHL 06. Here is the way I see it.

Football-NCAA 06.
Baseball-MLB 06 PSP Version it's game play was spot on.
Hockey-NHL 06 this was close but the faceoff thing and the back of the net scoring drove me nuts. NHL is not without many issues but I have to say it's fun.
Basketball-NBA 2K6-I freakin hate the shot stick for shooting long shots but it is cool for the inside game. The rest of the game is great. NBA Live is good but funny camera angles, poor player movement and rebounding problems give 2K the slight edge.
Best invention laugh if you want but the shot target in NHL 06 is freakin awsome. I know gretzky had last year but it was handled wrong. I aim at the place and when I blast by the goalie it's a great feelin.
Game of the year- NCAA 06- Great AI and Impact players and I love the race for the Hiesman mode.

I think EA won this year, 2K makes great games but bugs and a lack of polish hurt the games. I'm not trying to cause trouble but it's just my thoughts.
By the end of the day, you'll have your chance to vote. We'll be opening up the OS Member's Choice Awards.
