Championship: NFL 2k5 vs. College Hoops 2k8

[BROman]

gotta say, i'm shocked that tsb lost.

[datbushboy]

simply put NFL2k5 is the greatest game ever, can anyone name a version of madden they still play today?!?! NBA Live? March Madness? I respect CH2K8 its freaking loaded with features and great gameplay. I still have not gotten tired of playing either game. Oh yeah my boycott of EA Sports continues until they make something comparable to the madden with vick on the cover, or Madden 05 Hallf of fame edition with the old school maddens in it

QFT...there's nothing more I can say about NFL 2K5 that has not already been said. With Finn's editor, hard working guys like Puja, and an Action Replay I have been able to ignore Madden over the last few years. The game has been an absolute trainwreck. Sad thing is, I used to be a Madden fanatic, now I can't stand the game.

NFL 2K5 gets my vote.

NFL 2K5 hands down.

I didn't even like NFL 2K5. Their marketing scheme, however, got my $20!

Although I wasn't that fond of 2k5 myself, I can objectively see why many would consider it the best game of all time. Its one of only a handful game that I personally feel is worthy of beating CHoops.

Hell, that's the only reason I like NFL2K5 (tongue in cheek). I get one of the best products in America/World without all the side order of whining and crying about "where's mine" and the constant "D" word. All of the fun --- none of the mess!

I really fail to see how some people feel justified calling out the gaming knowledge or "street cred" of anybody who has supported either one of the final contenders. It's a public poll, you're asking for people's opinions, and then they get criticized for supporting a certain game? Just unnecessary IMO.

Im glad to see im not alone in my feelings on this.
and to whoever made the "Im taking my ball and going home" comment; A more apt statement has seldom been made.

I don't agree with either game in the finals, but here is my question for those of you voting for NFL 2k5:

If 2K made an NFL 2k6, 2k7, and 2k8, would you still be playing 2k5? How many people believe NCAA 2004 was the best recent college football game? How many still play NCAA 2004?

The belief that a lot of us that don't care for 2k5 have is that, if 2K didn't end the series, you would be buying the next version and 2k5 wouldn't be as revered as it is today.

How many would still play 2004 if EA's production hadn't dropped off after that?
