pcgd Posted July 21, 2004 Share Posted July 21, 2004 Ok, didn't know where this should go, so mods move it if you so desire.ESPN Football 2k5. Looks awesome on tv, on the internet. I guess its spost to be as good if not better than Madden. That might be a stretch. But here's the kicker, its gonna be 19.99! I guess it ships today (the 20th) and I went to walmart (only thing open this late, didn't actually think they'd have it) and they didn't. Has anyone seen it anywhere? Was I mislead on the price? Better yet, does anyone have it yet with a full recomondation?I'm thinking I'm getting it just cause its 20. Hoping best buy or a blockbuster or something has it tomorrow...

Stampman Posted July 21, 2004 Share Posted July 21, 2004 SO why are they afraid to put it out for PC? Comic Sans walks into a bar, and the bartender says, "Sorry, we don't serve your type here." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slapshot Posted July 21, 2004 Share Posted July 21, 2004 I've had a hard time playing ESPN games online...whatever server they use has problemsGranted, I get my ass handed to me at Madden, but Madden's in my blood, gotta stick with the franchise Back-to-Back Fatal Forty Champion 2015 & 2016 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nitroseed Posted July 21, 2004 Share Posted July 21, 2004 News about the announcementThe actual release date is August 24. Apparently, ESPN NHL 2K5 and NBA 2K5 will also be $20 as well. Awesome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TLChandler Posted July 21, 2004 Share Posted July 21, 2004 I loved ESPN NFL 2004, but when I saw the commercial for this and I saw the 19.99 come up my eyes just widened. I still dont know if this is real. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pcgd Posted July 21, 2004 Author Share Posted July 21, 2004 I checked online, and I thought it was the reserve price. but I found a bunch of other message boards saying it would be 20. I trust you guys more though...I MUST HAVE IT! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TFoA Posted July 21, 2004 Share Posted July 21, 2004 At $20.00, I would get NFL 2k5 AND Madden... But alas, I have no Playstation 2 or X-Box... I have the GameCube, which missed out on Fight Night and Nascar Thunder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowcap30 Posted July 21, 2004 Share Posted July 21, 2004 i think a lot of new PS2 (and others) are going to be 20 bucks now. ive seen a lot of other new releases that are 20 bucks as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STL FANATIC Posted July 21, 2004 Share Posted July 21, 2004 Suh-weet, I'm getting it for that...and if NHL is gonna be like that, then I'm not even gonna have to think about EA's...unless they lower their price.

TFoA Posted July 21, 2004 Share Posted July 21, 2004 True that, last year's was pretty decent... But ESPN's version kicked EA's in the arse... Too bad I bought the EA one too late Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See Red Posted July 21, 2004 Share Posted July 21, 2004 I'll consider buying it. But ESPN Football 2k5 isn't even in Madden's league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slapshot Posted July 21, 2004 Share Posted July 21, 2004 EA Sports games are NOT $20...I paid $49.99 for NCAA Football 2005 last week for PS2, my roommate the same for XBOX Back-to-Back Fatal Forty Champion 2015 & 2016 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pcgd Posted July 21, 2004 Author Share Posted July 21, 2004 Yeah, I just saw that for the NCAA 2k5 as well. 50 bucks for a guy that doesn't play it very much is a little pricey. (i.e. me)I never realized that ESPN was made by sega, who had NFL 2K1 or whatever for dreamcast. Perhaps the most beautiful graphics for its time. It's stand up today I'd bet too.

Haven't yet played it but the features seem amazing. From players getting into trouble to little things such as the camera shaking when the crowd gets really pumped up.

CC97 Posted July 21, 2004 Share Posted July 21, 2004 Will this be released on NGC for the same price? --- Chris Creamer Founder/Editor, SportsLogos.Net "The Mothership" • News • Facebook • X/Twitter • Instagram Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tajmccall Posted July 21, 2004 Share Posted July 21, 2004 NCAA 2005 is amazing. Best player movement yet.Create a school is pretty similar, but some differences, just an overall tighter package, and now its different from madden with its composure settings and in-game ratings change based on performance, your freshman backup can be a stud by halftime.wow, im selling this hard. well i think its good anyways, but rent it first id say, but if you do indeed buy it, study up on sending in a memory card with the actual rosters, there are a couple guys that do it. Like 5 bucks if you send the card it, 30 if you buy the card. Store 1 Store 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smackyeah Posted July 21, 2004 Share Posted July 21, 2004 I'll consider buying it. But ESPN Football 2k5 isn't even in Madden's league. Have you played ESPN? It's near if not surpassed Madden. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
