2k5 vs All Pro

[Vaporub83]

I haven't played either game. I just want to know how 2k5 measures up to All Pro. I keep seeing Madden being compared to 2k5. I think Madden took steps back when going to current gen console. Did 2k drop off in going to current gen systems?

A lot of what was wrong with NFL 2k5 was fixed in APF 2k8, gameplay-wise. But the gameplay has always been so amazing that even if you go with NFL 2k5 (if you want your NFL licensed fix and other games aren't cutting it for you), you won't be missing out on too much. However, if you play APF 2k8 extensively then go back to NFL 2k5 having never played it before, you'll probably notice a bunch of differences.

I prefer All Pro's gameplay, but I think 2k5 has better presentation and a franchise is a big must for me so both have their strengths.

All pro is 2k5 with a different rating system, fixed defensive AI and much worse presentation.

I perfer APF over to 2K5 because it's game play is a bit more realistic.

All Pro doesn't have franchise? I was thinking about getting it myself, but if it doesn't have franchise, I'll pass.

Nope, it just has one season. That's what kills me about this game, it's so good and fun, but I can only play one season. If this game had a franchise mode, I don't know that I'd even bother to play 2k5 again(because I prefer all pro).

The game does not offer franchise, but that makes sense to me. In all reality, how do we know what age these players are in the game? Are we getting all the legends as rookies, because God knows nobody wants rookie Aikmen or rookie Maynard. The legends come in at ages and expiration dates we really are not sure about. It just isn't a franchise friendly game. God, what I wouldn't give for another APF where they could figure something out for a franchise mode. Or no franchise again, just another All-Pro.
