foogledricks Posted July 9, 2004 Report Share Posted July 9, 2004 http://xbox.ign.com/articles/529/529208p1.html Besides Halo 2, this is the game I anticipate playing the most this year. Can't wait. Too bad JTello isn't buying this one for me too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bruce B Posted July 9, 2004 Report Share Posted July 9, 2004 Woohoo! What a bargain at $19.99! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JTello Posted July 9, 2004 Report Share Posted July 9, 2004 I hope this helps them sell this title as they well are aiming for. Personally, since I will have just gotten NCAA, I could have waited till the original ESPN release date for. Anyway, I'm looking forward to both games! :tu: :tu: I wonder how this approach they are taking with the ESPN series will affect the market? If it'll have the effect they are looking for? Too bad JTello isn't buying this one for me too. It's not enough that I gave your wife a baby, now I have to buy you video games too! :green: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptainRon Posted July 9, 2004 Report Share Posted July 9, 2004 Wow, they really moved that one up. I've always been a madden guy, but i think i'm going to end up picking this up this year. The early release date and low price are pretty hard to say no to. Any news on madden moving the date up? cause that would make me happy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If this baby has your stutter, nose whistle, or third nipple - I will be very suspicious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Daisy Posted July 10, 2004 Report Share Posted July 10, 2004 Any news on madden moving the date up? cause that would make me happy Early word from EA was that they said they weren't concerned and were going to go ahead without any changes to their release date.

foogledricks Posted July 12, 2004 Author Report Share Posted July 12, 2004 ...and My Patriots ... Reality check. They're not YOUR Patriots. That's like me watching CSI and referring to the stars as MY investigators. Besides, they're MY Patriots anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JTello Posted July 12, 2004 Report Share Posted July 12, 2004 Besides, they're MY Patriots anyway. :lmfao: Oh my god, that might be the funniest thing I've read here at LCVG! Keith, if one were to look up the definition of a fair-weather-fan, your picture would surely be plastered next to it,... ON A BILLBOARD!!! You didn't even jump on "Your Patriots" bandwagon till 3/4 of the second Superbowl season had passed! And even then, you only watched maybe the first and last five minutes of games! What a joke! :lmfao: I've come to the conclusion that every post that KFredericks makes here at LCVG or on any other internet forum needs to be preceded with a headline warning, "Caution, The Following Words are Only Meant to Flame, Please Read Lightly!" :tu: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chatakinns Posted July 12, 2004 Report Share Posted July 12, 2004 * a-hem * Since they helped me with the LCVG Fantasy Football 2003 League after much derision from some un-named people here, I believe that would qualify them to be My New England.

foogledricks Posted July 12, 2004 Author Report Share Posted July 12, 2004 ...fair-weather-fan... I think JTello needs to fully disclose the fact that not too long ago, while watching a Patriots game, where the patriots were losing in the last few minutes of a game, JTello actually shut off his television in disgust, only to learn on the news that the Patriots won the game. Mr. Tello has never understood the definition of fair-weather-fan and has always sought to mark me with that label. In actuality, I rarely watch sporting events from beginning to end, unless I find myself in the company of people determined to watch such an event (Superbowl being the most common example). So I don't ping around to sports teams that do well, as a true fair-weather-fan would. I am not a fan at all, fair-weather or otherwise. But I am game for NFL2K5 folks. Can't wait! Videogames transcend weather patterns. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Romier S Posted July 12, 2004 Report Share Posted July 12, 2004 Well if you needed anymore confirmation: http://www.gamespot.com/news/2004/07/12/news_6102369.html The 2005 football season is starting early this year--on consoles, anyway. Following unconfirmed reports last week, ESPN Videogames announced today that ESPN NFL 2K5 has gone gold and will indeed ship July 20. The "E" for everyone-rated game is being released for the Xbox and PlayStation 2. ESPN NFL 2K5's new ship date gives the Visual Concepts-developed game a one-month head start on its rival, Electronic Arts' Madden NFL 2005. Besides moving up its release date, co-publishers Sega and Take-Two interactive have also drastically discounted the game, which will sell for the bargain price of $19.99 (versus Madden's $49.99 price point).

Bruce B Posted July 13, 2004 Report Share Posted July 13, 2004 I played last years version last night for the first time in months and realized that for me, its probably the best sports videogame ever. How can they top it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foogledricks Posted July 13, 2004 Author Report Share Posted July 13, 2004 How can they top it? I played NFL2K3 last, so this year's game is going to be a quantum leap for me in so many ways. I am prepared to be impressed, because NFL2K3 is still, to this day, my most played Xblive game. Close second was midtown madness. Can't wait for an LCVG online season!!!
