2K15 is a blast.  Especially if you have a camera for your console then you can do the Facescan feature for MyPlayer.

 

Madden is fun, very deep...but 2K15 wins.  Treat yourself to the goodness that is NBA 2K15.

 

That hasn't been working out too well for most people.

This argument comes up every year. If you enjoy online play get madden if you like just making a solo guy or fuging around with a franchise I would go with 2k. They are both good for different things, essentially its always the same game with a few tweaks so youre a fool if you get the new version every year

Wont happen again.  NFL wanted a monopoly, they got one.

 

I believe if 2k wanted to make an NFL game, they could easily buy the license and make one.  They could have bought the license back in 2005 and shut Madden out, but they didn't want to get in that bidding war.  Ultimately it's 2k's fault for not getting it, and if they wanted to make one now, they could. (I don't think Madden renewed it)  I love your face scan by the way.  That's awesome.

 

As for the topic, 2k always win in presentation and gameplay.  It's not really a question anymore in my book.  Many still consider 2k5 to be the best football game ever made.  Someone mentioned that these games are nothing but the same thing every year with a couple of tweaks, nobody is more lazy with their game than Madden is.  It's easy to understand why.  They are the only ones putting out a football game (EA sports), so why improve on it if there is no competition?  That's easy money.  Put out the same game, slap a new year on it, make hundreds of millions of dollars.  NBA 2k is a little different.  They do have some competition with EA because they put out the sorry NBA Live game.  That's why they have new features in their presentation, and more commentary lines etc.  They actually put work into their games unlike Madden.  Perhaps one day 2k will make another football game.

No I haven't played it personally.  I've seen many youtube vids of it and so on. (I haven't played 2k15 either to be fair)  I don't doubt Madden is fun to play, but when it comes to sports games I look for how close it comes to real life.  If the presentation is right, the gameplay will take care of itself.  The presentation for Madden, all the things like halftime shows and weekly highlights, they still fall far short of 2k.  The one thing Madden use to have that was great, was the training camp mode. (Use to have a blast playing that on Madden 2004)  Do they have that for Madden 15?  With all that said, I always found Madden to be a little stiff in their movements.  That could come across as a personal critique, but again I'm looking for my sports games to be as real as possible, including in their movements.  If athletes moved that stiff in real life, I would have a hard time watching sports.  In this day and age of graphics, they should be able to do a little better in that regard than what I'm still seeing.

      Josina Anderson: Panthers NOT trading Adam Thielen

      By Khyber53 · Posted

      Let's be completely honest about this... Our WR room is AT and a bunch of question marks. Thielen is the only guy we know who knows the route tree completely, understands play calls and can regularly get open/beat close coverage when necessary. He's long in the tooth, isn't the speediest guy on the field but he plays like a pro, starting level wide receiver. Xavier, last season looked great at first, but man he kind of petered out down the stretch and would disappear in a number of games. He wasn't reliable on routes or getting open and where he was supposed to be a king at contested catches, he often looked a bit intimidated. I'm not saying he's a washout by any means. Anyone with his size, speed and catch radius could make it big in the NFL, but can he do it? He'll need to show more than he did in the preseason before we can really rely on him as a WR1 or WR2.  Coker was a revelation last season, he really played way above his (non)draft status and flashed multiple times in games and was a steady performer. What we need to find out, though, is whether he was benefiting from being an unknown that wasn't getting maximum effort from opposing DBs or if he was just outworking and outhustling everyone on the field. We should find out this season. We sure as hell didn't find out much in the pre-season (from him or any receiver or QB for that matter). He's still a question mark, but I think he has the look of the real deal. He might be this generation's next Thielen. Now, let's talk about Tet. High first round draft pick, first true WR off the board this year. Stellar career out west in college. Has the swagger of the WR1. And man, y'all are going to get mad about this but... he comes across as a mook. And in the pre-season he performed, well, not so great against poor opposition of second and third stringers. Yeah, he caught that one moonshot ball in the first game but really, nothing else lighting the place up. Rookie endzone drop in that game, too. He's still young and adjusting, I'm sure, but I was hoping to see something of a breakthrough kind of guy. I'm still looking. Hunter Renfro? Gosh, I hope he can make the team and make a comeback to his old form. It would be such a great story. But maybe neither one of those happens. We won't know until Tuesday and then, if he makes it past there it could be weeks. So, TL;DR: AT is all we can bank on right now. We couldn't afford to let him go considering the number of unknowns we'd be throwing out there for our QB, who himself is still an unknown. One thing to add: Our receivers coaching group has their work cut out for them. I hope they are up to the task, but the pre-season gave me little reason to believe in them. And I really need something to believe in here in Carolina.

      Same I think Randsom is a baller..... hopefully we don't have to suffer through 4-8 games of Scott blowing azz to get him on the feild.

      2025 Roster Cuts

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      Linebacker is the biggest need - I hope we figure out a way to address it. Krys Barnes is the only one who even moderately flashed.  Super nervous about Trevin/Rozeboom as a duo (Still like Trevin) I'd be excited if we had a better vet to mentor Trevin.  Or a better younger guy to support Rozeboom.  They just don't fit well and it may be a big problem against the run, even with our DL much improved.
