Disco Dave Posted July 14, 2005 Share Posted July 14, 2005 I use New Orleans playbook in Madden 2005. They need to give the Redskins a shotgun formation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Commander Adama Posted July 14, 2005 Share Posted July 14, 2005 Originally posted by Matador36 Why is that? I agree ESPN 2k5 is a much better game.

They are currently signing ex-players to be in there game. If a player is retired, he's not in the NFLPA they can appear in other football games.

englitdaudelin Posted July 14, 2005 Share Posted July 14, 2005 That playbook sounds pretty cool... a little more accurate than the 2005 version.... I wonder if there are enough running plays... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warhead36 Posted July 15, 2005 Share Posted July 15, 2005 Brunell and Raymer are way overrated and Springs and Griffin are way underrated. But the most unerrated is Cooley. A 79? He should be at least an 85. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheREALJBird Posted July 15, 2005 Share Posted July 15, 2005 Originally posted by Trickydog ESPN NFL 2K5 > Any Madden game ever. I still can't believe EA has teh monopoly... screw the 2K games...seriously, if i wanted to play a game like that i'd play a football game at the arcade...because thats what it essentially was. the ratings seem pretty decent though, I think portis should be a bit higher, didnt have the best season, but he's still established. Griffith and Springs should both be at about 90-93, and arrington should be a little lower i think too....brunell should be a 47 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MCnDaHouse Posted July 15, 2005 Share Posted July 15, 2005 I really hope TakeTwo will come out with a football game using the NFL 2k5 engine. That is such a fine game it'd be a shame to see it go to waste. It's odd how they lowered Clemons rating as well as he did last year. I can see it on Barrow and Arrington since they didn't play.

Skins4SB Posted July 15, 2005 Share Posted July 15, 2005 I have 2 questions to ask you RAC: 1. Is their an option to turn the vision cone off? 2. I noticed that Dyson and Brown are not one the rest. Are they just not in the game at all or are they in the Free Agent List? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redskins4life234 Posted July 15, 2005 Share Posted July 15, 2005 Cooley is so underrated its outragous. About 75% of the D is underrated. McCune will be very good this season i feel, and they gave him a low rating.SPrings should be higher also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the most unerrated is Cooley. A 79? He should be at least an 85. I don't think so. What has he done that's so special? A 78-81 is what Cooley should be at. They overrated: Brunell Campbell Raymer Prioleau Holdman Sellers Underrated: Springs Griffin ..and to those arguing about McCune, come on now. The guy hasn't even stepped on the field yet and you guys want him to be rated 99 or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evucci Posted July 15, 2005 Share Posted July 15, 2005 It's too bad that without the shotgun formation- it's going to be really tough to stop the nano blitzes in online play. We're screwed!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkinsCrunkin Posted July 15, 2005 Share Posted July 15, 2005 ESPN games sucked, the gameplay sucked. So what if the graphics were better. I had Marvin Harrison dropping passes and Manning overthrowing people ridiculously in that game, and if you knew the tackle breaker even remotely well you could get like 25 yard gains every time. It was like playing NFL blitz without the power ups and terrible graphics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skins84 Posted July 15, 2005 Share Posted July 15, 2005 the main two things that i dont like are griffin and springs.... they both had great years last year and i was expecting both of them to get a 90 --i was hoping for a little more from moss too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
