First Person Football

First Person Football in NFL2K4/2K5 was a highly ambitious mode but was limited on the original Xbox.

Still, I was one of its biggest proponents on OS. Im curious if, with all the advanced VR tech available now, 2k revisits FPF under their new NFL partnership. The language in the press release certainly would suggest so.

Either way I hope it returns. It was way ahead of its time back in 2003/'04.

Really think it was a gimmick that didn’t work back then. That being said it would be perfect for VR now a days.

Re: First Person Football

I liked it. Didn't live by it, but I loved its inclusion and thought that (alongside The Crib) were two amazing things the viral marketing brought forth during 2K4's pre-release campaign.

Re: First Person Football

The motion sickness and general jarring nature of it would make me cautious about it, but if VR continues an upward trend it for sure will come back at some point.

Re: First Person Football

I hope this makes a return in some form I've actually been pondering this since the news broke.

Every game that has came out and not included some form of this. Still waiting. May never get it again but I'd love to see it man would it be an amazing thing graphically.

I know there's an indie VR game that's about being a QB. Actually gonna try it out soon.
If that's successful, I could see 2K doing something with that concept.

Re: First Person Football

Playing QB was tough even though they did add the pass pressure detectors in 2k5.

However, playing defense was a BLAST! Especially on the defensive line. Nothing is better than beating the OL off the snap and closing in on the QB for the crushing sack in FPF.

Playing HB was fun too. Breaking loose for big gains was so rewarding after beig stuffed for short/minimal gains or tackled for loss.

Re: First Person Football

Imagine this with current/next-gen graphics in a VR environment!
