Wow. Even though the crowd is low resolution you can see clear individual animations. I haven’t bought a madden game since 2009. I just saw that ea is still going to be the exclusive nfl game now until 2026. It’s because idiots just keep buying the same game year after year. You have to make a statement and refuse to buy a madden game until they change. Stop rewarding with garbage.

The old Madden developers also loved football, and that showed just as clearly. As great as 2K5 was, there were many things that Madden 05 did better. That actually makes it worse, because I remember how great EA could be back when they actually cared.

Madden: Graphics 2k: Everything else

[@glennfarez6760]

Your point is spot on! Graphics then... Zero! Actually the fluidity of players is better in 2k5. Nothing will change until the NFL calls EA and leaves them a threatening message.

[@eduardopena5893]

Sorry, but those older Maddens around that generation of 2k5 were fun to play, controls felt crisp and solid. Scouting was fun because you did it by running your potential draftee through mini drills so you could get a feel for how he'd actually play on the field. What it didn't have was the glitzy and yes, good presentation of the Chris Berman half time highlights, etc. I thought drafting was a joke. Every player ran like they had a run in with Vlad the Impaler and he left something behind when the meeting was over. When players in 2k5 raise their arms up to cheer they all have double jointed elbows and they bend backwards a considerable amount. I thought franchise was okay, but I really hated how they handled the draft. I felt like I could never get the quality information I needed on any player to make an informed decision. I would have a guy with great combine numbers, great scouting report, I would draft him and he'd be like a 55 or 60 OVR. And this happened almost all the time. In this generation Madden's create a- feature was way more robust than 2k5's. In Madden you had many more options for names, could actually choose your own colors, and make your own stadium, place it anywhere you wanted and call it whatever you want. Not so on 2k5. Every logo had a color scheme attached to it that you couldn't edit, the stadiums were pre made and already had logos and naming on the field you couldn't change...so basically unless you wanted it to look real stupid, you would call your team the given name for the stadium.

True about the halftime show, sometimes i skip but sometimes i want the whole enchilada when and appreciate the effort

[@gritz7833]

Glad I still have my nfl 2k5 on the original x box 🏈💪🏾💪🏾

[@Josh_Jackson]

Everything from play, halftime show, the end week show with Chris Berman, literally everything is better!

[@KingGamezz87]

Was playing 2k5 just a bit ago and it's still amazing!

[@hamchoi_raveba]

That Trucking player timing button made you feel badass, chasing players down, be able to challenge different type of penalties, animations, and high.

[@Ghostface2point0]

You hit the nail on the head with the halftime show. I've recently gone back to playing NBA 2K12 and I'll actually sit through the halftime shows in nearly every MyCareer game I play because they ACTUALLY matter. There's commentary with actual highlights, lowlights, top performers, box score stats for both teams and tell you which games are coming up next on the national schedule. As opposed to 2K games now that just show your player's stats and your badge progress on a static screen void of any entertainment value.

[@gritz7833]

Wish they can do a nfl 2k5 remastered heck they can even leave it with the roster it came out with in 2004 . It will just feel like a game of Mut without having to open packs ! Heck even have the servers open to play online . That would be EPIC!!

[@bridgesbane7032]

Wow. Even the cheerleaders had better physics than Madden...

[@tgtgcd23]

I've been waiting for this video all seriousness....anybody who wants to make a football game....can't have anything less than ESPN NFL 2K5

[@tsw11385]

Enjoyed this Ry dog 🙌🏻 still play this game man. Can only Imagine this game going into next gen. feel robbed by the No Fun League. Top breakdown 👌🏻👍🏻🙌🏻

[@RyanMoody21]

You and me both!

[@vleboy]

I wish i had millions to bring back those Devs to re create this now

[@iquantum4631]

Much, much better. I've been playing it for the past 3 weeks on PC and it's simply amazing.

[@RyanMoody21]

It really is!

[@KingCh01ce]

That halftime was the best. CB with the effort and the music in the background

[@billycole852]

I had so much fun with the 2k series for NFL . The replays, the UI, the career mode, everything.

[@DhavidSetiawanKilluaDhavid]

Look the field, even just PS2 the field graphics just more alive.

[@DhavidSetiawanKilluaDhavid]

@HotRodimusPrime - Madden was boring but with same price.

[@jermainetilmon7793]

Someone needs to remaster this game...

[@MRMORTONIII]

Great video Bud damn i miss the glory days of 2k & madden

[@tysnell]

Been playing a couple months niw and im loving the frachise mode. Weekly reports, accurate challenges(in my opinion), and much more. 2k5 was going places for sure.

[@jduke93]

I just bought a ps2 last month just to be able to buy this, madden 06,07 and ncaa 06,07 because the gameplay is just so much more better than current gen maddens

[@mistermann3225]

Great choice amigo.....

[@gtbkidd]

🔥🔥

[@DMX-PAT]

This might be asking to much, but I would like to see a full overview of every Madden game you feel deserves recognition. I'm talking the best of the best, 02-2012 respectively. How do they stack up, which really stands out. With emphasis on player AI and pattern formations, etc. These are the Maddens I feel have the potential to be replayed and rated amongst themselves. You may just pick one or two, but it's these years that deserve the most attention in my opinion.

[@thegolden807]

It always amaze me that the halftime show actually have plays of other teams 🔥🔥🔥

[@kingkongtom6308]

Yes it is👍. Also people, please never compare MF2020 to this game ever again. Thank you!

[@EagleZtoTheGrave]

Madden 20 isnt even worthy of being 2K5's son

[@kingkongtom6308]

EagleZtoTheGrave amen

[@b.will8426]

Answer: It’s undebatable

[@gamernorcal]

more of these. great nostaliga and good to show the younger people who never played this game how great it was. there were so many great things off the field too. Remember 'The Crib'. Game within a game within a game.

[@user-bf2ky3tt9c]

I remember playing this game nonstop as a kid, he is right, very immersive game. I actually liked when my player went to go talk on phone after making a big play. 🙌🏿

[@joelmoody8983]

We might get a better madden in l l v years

[@7wnb]

In one word... YES! Madden just like 2k has used their monopolies to become complacent & lazy, as neither has any competition to keep them honest!!

[@josephanthony7310]

So glad i had this. I remember having my songs from my xbox playing during every kickoff. Field goal m touchdown. Yes

[@Phoenixx111]

I still talk about this game SO highly. There was SO much to do and so much personality in it

[@tonistarks2874]

And So do I and many others! I'm King on this game.i remember playing the pS2 version and smashing people online and pissing them off.. they'd quit on me😂😂and plus we got a two on two at times with my buddy online.i was the offense play caller and he was the defensive play caller...man I was I could play people on this comment section online...I'ma a beast!!

[@MutedGrowl]

Tecmo Super Bowl was better.

[@thebostonjoker6186]

Bo Jackson was the GOAT

[@thepoeticjedi526]

I think I can confidently say; we’ve waited for this day for so long.

[@donaldallender6369]

You are so right watching the half time show and cheerleaders made the playing the game more realistic and made you want to see it.

[@fitness_with_boobie5240]

Building your house was dope asf in 2k as well
