EA Sports vs. ESPN Games
#1
I have a confession to make.

I was a Madden purist. My only transgression was playing NFL2k2 for the Dreamcast a few years ago.

When 2K5 came out, I started playing that and REALLY enjoyed it, other than the PBP of games being really late (I would score a TD, and the commentators are still discussing my third-down conversion two plays ago)

I mean, it was 20 bucks and out three weeks before Madden!

Now I'm playing Madden... it's a slow load, the animations are choppy (play 2 seconds, stop, then play again) and I'm having other issues with the game.

Now... I'm going to get NHL 2k5... I know that much.

And Fight Night 2004's "Total Punch Control" has to be the most annoying thing EVER.

I've been converted after being a loyal EA Hockey customer for over ten years... ESPN hockey 2K4 just blew me away... and I'm very much looking forward to 2K5.

I completely agree, ESPN NFL 2K5 blew away Madden 2005 and only $20.

Smart move by them lowering the price, it held me over for Madden and wound up converting me to their franchise. Madden is going to have to step it up next year to beat ESPN.

Ever since the 2k series debuted on the Dreamcast, I've been hooked. I was a Madden fan, but after playing Sega's title, I never looked back. Both the graphics and the commentary were much better than anything EA put out.

I too can't wait for NHL 2k5, even if there isn't a hockey season this year.
