Its sad. They have millions of dollars to make a game thats better then 2K and EA is just so so lazy. It would be awesome if they would scrap madden 22 and come back the next year and reprogram the whole game from the format that 2K has and improve it 10 fold and people would think its the greatest football game ever and they'll actually create more revenue off of the new game cause they'll have more of the old school madden players/2K players come back to purchasing the game again.
Dude I couldn’t imagine what a current Gen APF game would look like...especially with more Players to add. Like Sean Taylor, Ed reed, Ray Lewis. Michael Vick. Etc....it would be beyond amazing
NFL 2K5 and APF 2k8 were games that you could tell had people working on it that cared about giving the customer the best simulation football experience they could possibly deliver. APF2K8 is still so many years ahead of Madden and at the current pace, it is going to take another few decades for Madden to catch up to the gameplay.
Can you imagine how good this game would be today. They were ahead of their time on this one. We appreciate it now only because of the trash EA puts out each year
The immersion in this game is simply awesome. Sideline reactions, in-game injuries (accurate in-game injuries), snow accumulation on the field. Ultimately the gameplay is the dogs balls. EA is dookie, straight ass! 2K/Visual Concepts make a College game, Hell...make another All-Pro, just give us another football game and put Madden in the grave where it belongs.
Awesome start to what could have been an amazing series. Lack of franchise and the vast imbalances in legends killed this game. Gold halfbacks were too damn good!
This is our tecmo bowl. My older brothers kept a nes to play Tecmo Bowl for years and years. This is my Tecmo bowl and with emulation this will be on a pc in my house forever. GOAT football game
I bought it a week after and hardly touched Madden the next couple years. I put in so many hours trying different configurations absolutely loved playing this game. I actually just bought it again on eBay.
GREATEST FOOTBALL SIM OF ALL TIME!! KEEP DOIN IT 2K FOOTBALL NOW I WANT NFL TEAMS & FRANCHISE MODE ON MY APF 2K8 ON 360. YES I choose to play this on my 360 rather than ANY MADDEN on Xbox one F*** MADDEN, I don't play Madden & haven't for years APF 2k8 , greatest sim football ever. Stop playing that EA garbage & convert to APF 2k8 & be amazed that REAL SIM FOOTBALL LIVES DAPP TO 2K FOOTBALL NOW
This game is just so incredible. I play Madden religiously because that's all that we have, but I am an 2K enthusiast. Would really appreciate another 2K game in the near future!
Here I am again (I visit this page for these videos pretty often). Patiently waiting for 2K to come out with a sequel (which we'll obviously mod 😂😁). Actually I'm hoping that the NFL game they're allowed to work on will be as close to simulation as possibly allowed. Until then I'll keep playing 2K8 with modded rosters and accurate gameplay.
I just found this game today at my local Goodwill for $2.00 for PS3. I was like a kid in a candy store when I seen this. It’s in great condition not one scratch on it in the original case.
You know whats sad we will never have another football game of this caliber again madden turned into complete dogsht great vid man brought back alot of memories
no contact injuries is crazy advanced … all this game needed was towels and hand warmers it would be no madden today … just ppl updating the frames on this masterpiece
0:35 Became my Favorite Camera Angle to play a sports game on all because of 2k Football. I have a feeling it's coming back next year especially after Madden 19 flop. Let's just cross our fingers!🤞🏾Awesome Video! 😍👍🏾
Only problem i have with this game is the cpu runs faster than a user nomatter how fast you tap the sprint button. Other than that its probably the best football game ever made imo
Nah, u gotta know when to use your speed. Don't always tap. Pick up speed with out tapping then kick it into another gear. Also u have to take proper angles
Sam The Man I’m working on classic roster at the moment, but did do a few clips of Tom Brady in some 1993 throwbacks. twitter.com/2k_football_now/status/1079832403361832963?s=21 twitter.com/2k_football_now/status/1046072867526512640?s=21
ImaFnProblem I just use a simple capture card and video editor, I think what makes it, is the replay angles and uniforms that really show that a APF is a good looking game.
Bro, WE SOOO NEED THIS GAME BACK! Give us a new version or a remastered version for PS4 or Xbox. Give something besides MADDEN cause this game was fire! #REALTALK!
Uniforms are the easy part, they did take some time, but I'm working on 1993 roster file for APF 2k8 that is incredible amount of work. Every team will be accurately produce according to the 1993 season and every player rated. I have 11 teams done so far.
9.8/10 because just once in a while when a defender makes a tackle they go through part of the ball handlers body but besides that, APF2K8 is the best football game out there and it's so ahead of it's time. EA shit there pants when they released what 2k was doing to them which was having a cheaper and better football game.
It doesn't matter how much people complain about Madden football games. As long as people continue to buy it year after year EA will not attempt to make it better.
NFL 2K5 is still better... All Pro has some issues... Kicking sucks and you can't shift the defensive line like you can in 2K5... it's the 2nd best only to 2K5
I prefer old school players over the current player anyway. Even with the NFLPA and NFL license EA bitches out signing a bunch of retired players because of this game.
With difficulty, though being serious, just taking the time to look up the uniforms of whatever team you want or a guide on how to make them isn’t super hard.

That 2020 Madden Bowl was beyond cringy as EA was like "yeah, we're totally selling a _sim_ football game totally not filled with exploits LOL"
Adublu Naaaa madden has nfl sin rights for another 5 years rip
Sometimes I think this game came from the future, it was so ahead of its time it’s funny how madden games can’t even come close to this game
Yep.
Same starting to make current rosters and uniforms lol
I feel like a lot of games had the software and capabilities to perfect game play. In 2011 around that time.

I'm glad I kept my 360. 2k5 and 2k8 best football and college basketball games. Also most other sports games on 360 better than current ones.
This puts most football games, including all Maddens, to shame.
The best football game ever created nothing will ever top this game. I own it for the Xbox 360.
APF 2K8 and NFL 2K5 are the best video football games ever made and it's not even close.
Johnnyu19 Agreed......and I still have both games.
This game is just so incredible. I play Madden religiously because that's all that we have, but I am an 2K enthusiast. Would really appreciate another 2K game in the near future!
EA after having to give more effort in the new Madden game because fans complained enough - "Heh... Not bad... You made me use 10% of my power."
It's like watching a great dunk in slow motion.
I love this game, but wish it came out later, a lot of people's save files with custom legends are lost to time.
I’ve seen the cpu try to get the d line to jump and called a timeout before the play clock expired little stuff like that makes this game awesome

Smh
People probably dont even get the importance of 20:37

Remember when you needed stick skills to play a football game? Yeah, this was it.

Ball trajectory is beautiful
Recently bought brand new with everything 2k5 for $8 amazon. Found a loose copy of 2k8(ps3) for $2 in a store in GREAT shape.
