You like 2k5 and APF commentary better than this? Why?!?

In my personal opinion I think it's too early to judge the commentary. But this is not the place to get into a 2K football vs EA football debate.

Let's please move on from that.

Just looks like another typical "Madden" or "EA" game. Nothing to be too excited about, a few improvements, but still not enough in my opinion. It still looks more like an arcade game than a sim. Generic sidelines, animations with the player trying to bring the ball in to his body after a catch with no ball in his hands, crushing hit with a fumble that goes right into a players hands that looked like he was literally knocked out. I'm sure I missed other things, but I watched the video once and didn't come away excited or impressed.

At his point, I guess there isn't a lot we can expect from Madden. They make a ton of money every year due to their monopoly of the NFL. Honestly, why can't they come close to the level of what NBA2K brings to the table each year? Their budget has to be be on par or more than likely more than what 2K has to work worth considering they are EA. Overall, no surprises on my end, which really sucks. With that said, I still can't believe this is the state of NFL gaming in 2016-2017. I hope I'm wrong, but their previous track record gives me no reason to feel that way.

Thank you for the video.

I agree. The improvements are nice, but unless they decide to rebuild the game from scratch, it will never be close to what it should be.

I really wish the LeBron celebration was more limited. I have seen it from AP and Kelvin so far, and neither of them actually do it in real life lol.

Same. I've seen Jason Witten do a goofy dance and spike the ball and it made me cringe. That's not the kinda player Witten is, it all goes back to player likeness and immersion. If I score with Barry Sanders I don't expect him to do backflips I expect him to hand the ref the ball.

I would like to see the pocket collapse a little more. 5-10 secs it seemed on average which allows anyone in the nfl to get open. Great video though

I think we need to get a true organic pocket before we see one collapse
