Summary

This is the best football game that I have everplayed. I dont know how long I have played it but it has been the whole last year. In my franchise mode i have made it to the year 2006 or something like that and I played with the dolphins. My first yeah was bad because I was still getting use to the game. But I atually finished the same record as the dolphins did in real life and lost in the same spot in the playoffs. After the season was over I didnt expect what came next. First it told em of my old players as well as the players from around the leage had retired! that was just the start. It then whe into the off season where I could prepare for the nfl draft for new players! this was the first time I had ever seen this. I could research all the college players and look over my team to see what i would want in the draft and what positions of mine that were weak and need improvements. I could also trade at this time. the trading system is the best for any sports game EVER! it has to be a fair draft and if the team allready has a good player at the postion that you are ofering then they will not want that player unless you sweeten the deal. They wont do trades like if you were to offer Running back rated at a 50 for Payton Manning they would be like PISS OFF! So it was pritty realistic when it came to that. The draft was just like in real life. The worst teams got he first pics and the best teams of last year got he last.after you pic all of you pics you go into sighing mode. You have to give the players the right amount of money and years based on there rating or they wont want to join your team. you can keep offering them the same amount week after week untill they give in or the go t another team for a better deal. The plaers get better or worse depending on a few things like how good they play in games and the older they get. you can look for free agents that the other teams have gotten raid of because of no use for that player or salery caps. This game had the best system of managment I have ever seen. They still neeed a few inprovents i the next game. I think it would be very good if they had a record book and a hall of fame kinda thing for players and coatches(the gamer) who made the longest feild goal and so on. they also need to track each players states as well as the teams states through the years. I would like that a lot better.

Sound

The sound wa also very well developed! From great anownsers to funny things the linbackers say to the Quaterbacks it is allaround good stuff. the croun comes into a factor for a first time that I have ever seen in any game. When on defence at a home game you can hit the x button to rile up the crowd to make more noise to mess up the other teams snap count to get falstarts. Doesnt happen to much wich is good. But if you crowd gets to loud from this the refs will call exesive crowd noise.
the sounds of the players in the heat of battle is good too. it isnt just grunts and a smashing of the gear eather! good good good! allaround good

Gameplay

I think that the control and moves of the players on the feild are A LOT better than any madden game ever. I have played almost all madden games and I have never been able to play a real football sceem.In madden it was mostly passing! i could never run the ball! I hated that! But in this game, after getting use to the controls, you can actually run the ball and be as successful if not better than the real football players. I had one reall major beef of this game. In allstar mode(the hardest) the computer team intersepts IMPOSSIBLE catches! I would pass the ball 50 yards down feild and the Cornerback and Widereciver would be at full run and the cb would meraculessly stop and turn around and intercept the ball in all less than 1/10th of a second! I turn off many games when I was down by a touchdown and I though that the pass was going to give me that tying score but the computer intecpts an impossible ball! ohhh that got to me! I saw a much to big of a difference in the pro(medium) and allstar(most difficalt) difficalty modes. In a number system rookie would be a 1, pro would be a 5 and allstar would be a 10! They need to get a few other difficalty modes or fix it so that it isnt so hard and more realistic.
They also need to have the ability to make or take playes from other teams play books to add to your own. I got sick of my playbook after 6 seasons! you can only make like 6 playes and that isnt enough! I also notices that the wide recivers would like to jump a lot more to catch the balls instead of just running to catch it. That made me mad too. They also need to make it so that the cb's on your team nock the ball away more.
