cortezmauricio56 2k actually gave a shit about game modes and gameplay and not just money grab like madden has become. NFL 2k5 was one if not the best NFL game of all time. You can ask soooooo many gamers who play sports game that will agree
Tecmo Super Bowl for one. And for two...no. Tecmo Super Bowl...the advancements it had on video game football are far and away bigger than 2K5 and I LOVE 2K5. TSB is the fuckin' Godfather of this genre.
Madden has ruined atleast a decade worth of nfl football games for everyone with very few good ones plz let other ppl make nfl football games again after all these years the get worst n worst thanks for nothing madden
It's sad what EA and Madden have done. I love playing football games, but Madden is so trash that I haven't bought 1 in 11 years. I'd rather play 2K5, Street, Tecmo Bowl or NCAA over any recent shitty Madden game.
CHAMPDOGZ As long as dumb asses keep buying the games for that ultimate team packs and crap, they won't do shit else to fix the franchise. It's all about ultimate team shit or fantasy team shit on here, Fifa, nba 2k and maybe baseball and hockey are next!🤔🙈
@@jessicamcbrearty5862 Madden 2004 was the beginning of the end because they made Vick be able to complete passes 80 yards downfield after running 50 yards backwards escaping pass rushers
First ever game with season mode season stats team stats for season pro bowl Nflpa license team licenses etc etc etc. tecmo revolutionized football games. It was ahead of its time and paved the way for the 2ks and the maddens. 2k5 is a strong number 2, but tecmo is in a class all by itself.
ThatSportsGuy and thats cool Madden should have kept 12 around charged for new rosters as dlc's until they were actually ready for a new and improved one madden has literally ruined atleast a decade worth of nfl football games for everyone
You sound like you never even played 2K 5 the fluid motions when running the animations were top notch the ESPN Commentary still could not be matched today
Is it really that hard to go back, take the 2K5 tech and physics and build upon it!? HONESTLY. 2K5 was AND IS my favorite till this day. I still have the xbox and 2k5 solely for that reason....
I can undo the court case that allowed the NFL and EA to collude their products and agreements and also allowed them to violate the Sherman Antitrust Act and several other laws that are upon the books, +Twigg4075.
I don’t know why it wasn’t mentioned in the video, but at the time NFL2K5 was released, every new game was $49.99 yet NFL2K5 was $19.99. Not only was it the best sports game of all time, but probably the best value in video game history.
Yep, I picked up both nfl 2k5 and nba 2k5 the same day each for $20. The best deal for new video games to this day!! Smart move by 2k at the time to get people off of the ea boat! Unfortunetely ea went used monopoly tactics to take over the football video game market :/
@@ghtraining1 Actually EA didn't use monopoly tactics... You should do some research... The NFLPA wanted one company to represent them in a video game so they made them bid for the license... EA was the biggest company and won the bid... I can't stand EA but that is how business works
NFL 2K5 is one of my favorite video games of all time. I literally played that game all night, creating so many fantasy draft teams. I still own a copy to this day. No football in history can touch it. Although I do like Madden 04 as well.
2K5 was the best, that ball carrier system was epic, actually felt like you could control your player. I remember trucking so many dudes as Jamal Lewis.
04 had great cheat codes but 05 was the best Madden ever!!!. 06 & 07 I gave away. My bro let me play that Steelers vs Cardinals Madden{Didn't like that neither}
Vision cone was both innovative and well implemented. I will never understand why people hated it. It actually added an extra layer of skill. You could actually "look off" the defender on online.
Because your thumbs won't ever match the reflexes of your eyes so just the mechanics of it was going to be tough for anybody to get used to. Now if they did that in 2023 now that we have eye tracking technology, if you wore some glasses or vr headset or used your playstation/xbox camera to track your eyes it would be brilliant.
I just played NFL 2K5 on the PS2 this afternoon. That’s my top pick an go to football game of choice. It still looks good but better than that, it just feels right. No other way to describe it. The ESPN license was used better there than anywhere. My 2nd pick would be NFL Blitz. Too much fun and memories there. The 3rd pick would be the original Tecmo Bowl. I grew up with that one. It wouldn’t leave my NES for months at a time.
Madden 07 and 05 were the funnest for me. The franchise mode had so much depth compared to now. You were allowed to create stadiums for your franchise, create new uniforms, and rename the team. Thing I miss the most is creating my own plays and use them in game. I still To this day don’t understand why they removed that feature.
@America not true at all. It depends on the game. Go look at the size of Madden in your systems app manager. Madden is 43 GB. For comparison, NBA2K19 is 70GB. Forza 4 is 59 GB and Gears 4 on my XBONE reads 100GB. It has nothing to do with space. EA is just greedy and lazy af. Think about it. The offline $60 copy of Madden comes with 32 teams, play now mode, franchise mode and Longshot(almost forgot lol). THATS IT!!!!!No historic teams. No All Madden teams. No Mini Camp. No situational setup. No Superstar mode. Meanwhile, 2K19 offline for the same $60 comes with classic teams and all time teams. Which in total is like 80+ teams. Plus you can use any team or players in Myleague. There's Play Now, Blacktop, mycareer, myGM, myleague,. That's for just the $60. But then again, even if you look at the online aspect. 2k has a neighborhood in the game that opens up different mini games while Madden just lets you buy cards and build a team, which should already be in the game.
I would imagine they got rid of the create play function so as to not be a tool for the real NFL and exploit opponents easier simulating your authentic playbooks.
NFL 2k on Dreamcast was jaw dropping when it came out. Compare it to Gameday 98 to get an idea of what sports videogames looked like before 2k. The animation on 2k was something no game on any genre had really pulled off as far as being lifelike at the time.
I always wanted a Nfl Street mode on madden like how 2k has a myPark mode... they just need to remaster Nfl Street 2 and support online compatibility/leaderboards
Two problems that I see here: 1.) Tecmo Bowl (the original) isn't in this list. 2.) The best player in Tecmo Bowl history is Lawrence Taylor (L. Taylor) of the Giants in Tecmo Bowl 1. We used to joke that he should have an "S" on his chest. He was actually faster than Bo Jackson.
I literally just bought 2K5 a few days ago on mercari and played all night last night. I am shocked how well it’s held up and how ahead of it’s time it still is.
I still remember to this day. I first played 2K on Dreamcast. It was mind boggling what it offered to the players in terms of graphics, gameplay etc. Far cry from Gameday, Madden, etc. Then 2K5 came out offering it on release day for $20 while Madden was at a full $60 for the game. People bought 2K5 in masses which resulted in EA getting bent out of shape and purchasing the license for the NFL ending 2K forever. FUCK YOU EA!
@cashtheyen you're an idiot and you don't appreciate Tru simulation football game play that requires skill your joke season mode should be enough for a scrub like you
Dude you need to get a ton of popular sports youtubers together, and you all release videos to vote for ncaa football to be backwards compatible , dont you want it back!
I agree with this list overall. I think you should have added Sega's Joe Montana's Sportstalk Football on Genesis. It was the first football game with play by play commentary and it was alot of fun.
NFL FEVER 2003 on XBOX, BY FAR THE BEST NFL GAME!!! then EA ruined everything!!! and NFL Fever 2004 was Rubbish!!! EVERYONE, GET NFL FEVER 2003 on XbOX!!!!!
Halfway through this video I was starting to wonder if you were even going to put Tecmo on the list, but I agree with just about every game on the list in the order.
I was watching this video and was 100% ready to leave a tirade of nasty comments for not having Tecmo on this list, then #1 came up and I was happy with this list! I can remember playing Tecmo with two other friends, we each picked our favorite teams, each put $10 in a pot & pulled an all nighter playing season mode & you only got the money from the pot if you won the Superbowl............good times!!
I did this with my siblings. My sis was the Washington Redskins, My brother the Chicago Bears, I was the Miami Dolphins.. stayed up all night over the Christmas break and just played our season. Awesome memories
Super tecmo III Final addition is my favorite tecmo ! The 2nd was awesome also but hard to find cause it was limited edition . The way you could upgrade your players throughout the season was awesome not to mention picking up studs in free agency at the end of the season
I really enjoyed NES Play Action Football, I loved how if you kept using the same player the energy would deplete and you’re forced to use a back up but, that’s just my opinion
Lol if u say so bro. Nostalgia to the side 2K5 is a better football game. it's the complete football sim experience. Yes Tecmo was fun and great back in it's day.
If there was any other game at #1 I was ready for a fight lol! Good list. My only change would be swap out Madden o6 for Madden 05. The revolution of the hit stick, for me, was just too great to leave out. Plus you had the Tony Bruno show which I liked.
Front Page Sports Football Pro 96 deserves to be on this list. It was a groundbreaking sim game that allowed customization and online leagues on PC. I will never forget playing it for as long as I live.
They should have something similar to MUT for Tecmo Superbowl. Where you could open pack for players and create your own fantasy team to use against other online opponents. This is genius imo, or am I crazy?
Super Tecmo Bowl was 11v11, you can count the players here in the clips. Perhaps the original Tecmo Bowl was 9v9, can't remember. I would honestly play STB over just about any Madden game today. For me, 2k5 is #1
2k had EA shook after NFL 2k5
exactly!!! talk to em!
I wish 2K had beat them to the punch about that license......Or just let it be and compete each year like they do with NBA games.
That’s why EA had to go and buy an exclusive NFL license 🙄 NFL greedy... that decision ruined football games...
And the price was killing madden. 19.99
Yes!, I think we're still wondering where the franchise could've gone, if EA sports didn't own the rights to the NFL license.
The graphics on NFL 2K5 still looks good to this day. Lord have mercy.
the player movement and animations still kill madden
chronoxiong yup💪

Dammmmmmmmnnnn Skippppppy !! It Still feels better , plays better, and is presented better than any other football game out there ever !!!
Tecmo was great, but you know nostalgia had a lot to do with it getting #1.

I remember Madden 2004 with Vick on the cover was an awesome game, and it’s just been downhill ever since.
Truth!

They did. It was called All Pro 2K8 and is still awesome. I'm pretty sure EA has the exclusive NFL license.
I can undo the court case that allowed the NFL and EA to collude their products and agreements and also allowed them to violate the Sherman Antitrust Act and several other laws that are upon the books, +Twigg4075.

You can still play it so go 4 it🤗

NFL 2K5 is one of my favorite video games of all time. I literally played that game all night, creating so many fantasy draft teams. I still own a copy to this day. No football in history can touch it. Although I do like Madden 04 as well.
NFL 2K5 is the best football game ever made. And All pro football 2K8 is in my top 5 also.
Same fam
Ncaa football 14????????
Play it every day.
Best football game of all time. What was he thinking?
@Jake yes ok, but title doesn't state that. If I was making a list, NCAA 14 might be 1...close with Tecmo Super Bowl.
Best football game ever I’m sad it was overlooked
Definitely the best football game of all time. Still play it regularly
I always loved Joe Montana football
cfairfax85 "the crowd goes wild"
I used to love that game. Surprised it didn't make the list.
One of the best to me!
2K5 was the best, that ball carrier system was epic, actually felt like you could control your player. I remember trucking so many dudes as Jamal Lewis.
I was thinking what the hell could they put over 2K5 but I completely forgot about tecmo bowl lol
Hahah I did the exact same thing lol! I was so mad that 2k5 was #2....until I heard that Tecmo Bowl music, then I was like "Oh yeah, you right" lol.
MasenkO.G. Bruh that's shit is good but it ain't number 1 lol
Sorry, but ESPN NFL2K5 >Tecmo Bowl...always.
TECMO SUPER BOWL damn it! Two different games!
Well yeah, because Tecmo Bowl isn't the game on the list.
I'm so glad you gave tecmo bowl its recognition 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I remember tecmo Super bowl was one of the first to have season stats. That was the game changer. I had like 70 sacks by Howie Long
I agree with you almost, but Madden 2005 with Ray Lewis on the cover would be my #3 that's the only difference for me
Vinnie McGhee - best Madden ever made. The introduction of the Hit Stick
yesss
04 had great cheat codes but 05 was the best Madden ever!!!. 06 & 07 I gave away. My bro let me play that Steelers vs Cardinals Madden{Didn't like that neither}
Only other acceptable answer to greatest Madden than 05 is 04
How when 2k5 came out same year... 2k smash Madden
tecmo bowl was the greatest I almost got suspended 3 days at work because I was late always playing that game I couldn't put it down.

Madden 12 is the greatest. I still play it online to this day
Yung Mans take 13 off that shit was pew. And 06 can't hold 05 or 04 jockstrap.
I always had Bo Jackson on Tecmo Bowl but I think Randall Cunningham might be better because he can run fast and throw it.
Excuse me Sir, thats Mr. QB Eagles to you.
Now that the xfl will be back in 2020 hopefully 2k can let visual concepts make a great game and make a awesome alternative to madden

I don't get all the love for Madden 12 in the comments section. That game was ass cheeks, and easily the worst Madden.
Funny how the gameplay from 12 and 18 is identical
Madden 12 is the best Madden. Only 07 and 11 are close
I loved playing NFL 2K5! I cried when I heard that EA had locked down the NFL license and we'd never get a 2K6!
Blitz the league 1 & 2
Kyle Powell FINALLY A PERSON THAT KNOWS THIS GAME IT WAS AWESOME
If there was any other game at #1 I was ready for a fight lol! Good list. My only change would be swap out Madden o6 for Madden 05. The revolution of the hit stick, for me, was just too great to leave out. Plus you had the Tony Bruno show which I liked.
Madden 05
Definitely respect #1 & #2, Personally 2k5 is my all time favorite 🎮
Tecmo ain't better then 2k5.
yes it is
No complaints here, pretty spot on.
Madden 12
Exactly
Last good Madden. Even though it was watered down comparing to some older ones.
LXXMD XCVI yeah
Madden 05 where you could make your own plays deserved a place on this list. I don't think Tecmo Super Bowl should haven't been #1.
NFL 2k4 imo is still the best NFL game ever made.
Madden 12 was the best with those rag doll physics!
2k5 is number 1
Great list!!!
Front Page Sports Football Pro 96 deserves to be on this list. It was a groundbreaking sim game that allowed customization and online leagues on PC. I will never forget playing it for as long as I live.
They should have something similar to MUT for Tecmo Superbowl. Where you could open pack for players and create your own fantasy team to use against other online opponents. This is genius imo, or am I crazy?
APF 2K8 and NCAA 14 should be up here easily.
bigbaybee62287 NCAA 14 is the best Football game in my opinion
Madden 05 should’ve made the list, the hit stick was something serious!! Loved it!
(NCAA football 14). It’s 2018 and it’s the most important and treasured game I own!
Before I watch I’m gonna say my favorite NCAA 06 I still play to this day
Great game USC was my team
Man the SEGA NFL 2K and 2k5 and Madden 03 and 04. Are my favorite American football games ever.
Super Tecmo Bowl was 11v11, you can count the players here in the clips. Perhaps the original Tecmo Bowl was 9v9, can't remember. I would honestly play STB over just about any Madden game today. For me, 2k5 is #1
Played 2k5 back then on the Xbox .. had a couple Madden but always went back to 2k5.... Shows how good it really is...
NFL 2k make the Vikings OP lol.
Wow game day was better than Madden .I remember!! Great video
Honorable mention NFL Fever 04. It had that Lead and Read passing feature was the best.
