I completely disagree with this review. at first sight, 2k8 seems almost the same as 2k5 with better graphics but thats not the case at all. They added so many little but important details that make it more dynamic and an even better simulation game. I would need more than this video time to go through all the things just off the top of my head that they added. 2k8 is the best football game out there and I would have paid $70 for it but only had to pay $5
I just found this game today at my local Goodwill for $2.00 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.
Dude I scooped it up 2 wks ago at a 3rd party store . Lol I paid $20 but totally worth it this game is fire and just like you I was looking for a rep like a sugar powered kid so he can pop open the glass doors immediately 😂 .
they should make an all pro football 2k12, even if you don't get newer legends like Jim Brown use customization, create a stadium, 2kshare that way you can create your own legend, first person football, etc.
Ha! The funny thing is, 2K didn't even need to do that, they already shut out EA's NBA titles so bad that the EA Sports team stopped making them. Could you imagine the position they'd be in if EA hadn't taken the license? I'd be willing to bet that we'd see the same thing with Madden as we did with their NBA games.
the reason why 2k doesnt license nba is because everyone would buy 2k's product over ea, so its a waste of $. but if ea didnt license nfl, everyone would buy 2k's product. so yeah
one season; you just restart each time you finish, keep your stats (written) and you add on, sounds like a lot of work but if willing to there ya go, each season u restart would be an additional year, 1, 2, 3.
What a crappy review. He didn't even TALK about the abilities you have at your disposal in order create your players and team and how they positively effect GAME PLAY. He didn't even TALK about game play and football representation. Audibles are clean, and over all you never feel cheated by the A.I. as a whole. He skimmed the features, played the game about an hour and kept trucking. This is my problem with mass review media. You never get a real idea of what a game has to offer it's true fans.
@ram29jackson I agree, pro 2k8 is still the best football game on the 360 to this day, i still like madden but pro 2k8 looks better, plays better, and the presentation is awesome, i love the halftime show with its instant replays of key plays made in the first half, i wish 2k sports would come out with a new version
I’d love to see 2k drop another football game like this. College though total customizable. Or heck even another game full of hall of fame players. Drop mafia IIII
I thought APF 2K8 fixed and enhanced some things that NFL 2K5 might've done just an ok or bad job on. I think APF 2K8 has THE best gameplay in a football game ever up to this point.
The one madden where the ambulance would come out onto the field and run over the players was better than madden 15, because they new their game was trash, at least they added some humor
I'm sorry, I don't see how this game & NFL 2K5 is better than Madden 05 & Madden 08. Presentation wise you have a point but gameplay & player rating wise go to the two Madden games I mentioned. 2K5 & 2K8 are still good football games to play tho.
Your a casual gamer if you are a hardcore football guy you would never say Madden is better then 2k8 or 2k5. There is nothing wrong with being a casual but I am a hardcore football simulation gamer 2k football does it best.
=Thats what I'm saying, Madden is just now adding things that 2k has already had. = And they're still getting it wrong. =EA just wants the game to look like a NFL game rather than it actually play like one.= And still failing at it.
I wish It worked that way its not like that though you have to go to the league and buy a license and whoever buys the license can make a game of that sport so EA went to the NFL and said about 17 million so we can make a football game EA wanted to buy the license buy a license but madden had set the bar to high
Why the f%%% is this review standing in front of the gameplay! He let us see the ref flip the coin but jumped right in front so we couldn't see the plays!
the only sports games i buy from e.a. is their nhl games. ever since they brought the license to the football titles(NFL) its boring. know why E.A maddens went down hill? its cus they don't have any competition with games that uses real nfl teams. i think hat 2k should make another all pro football make it have multiyear seasons and the other things you can do in most sportsw games like trade sign free agents. they need to make a game that competes with madden.
to everyone out there who is dissing madden or 2k just be happy with what you have there both great games so just watch what you like and dont comment what you think just keep it to yourselves!
@cedriclovesaaron You can say that 100 times or even a million and you will only be wrong, well... never. LOL. 2k Sports does football like milk does a body, fam.
@DonRSD hey where did you hear 2013 was the date? That would be freaking awesome. let it be true bro. I cant stand madden. I use to buy it for PC until I played 2K5 and realized what garbage Madden was.
Who knew that nearly 13 years and a console generation later, this is as good as its gonna get!?

How much did EA pay you to do this review? 🤔🤔

This guy works for ea
they need to make college football 2k games
almost recycled? Sounds like Madden!
I'd rather have recycled 2K5 than recycled garbage Madden.
its because ur used to playing arcade madden football where u can throw 80 yard bombs off your backfoot
Greatest football game to date

Yeah this game is worlds better than anything Madden has come up with. Granted it is far from perfect but compared to Madden it might as well be.
APF 2K8 is still the best game out there and the football gamers need to learn this
2k football still the best!!!!
Still true 11 years later!!!
Is 2k going to make a new NFL Game when EA's license with NFL over?
the reason why 2k doesnt license nba is because everyone would buy 2k's product over ea, so its a waste of $. but if ea didnt license nfl, everyone would buy 2k's product. so yeah
Best football game ever this game is made for the true football fan madden is made for the kiddies!!
One of realist post I have seen on YT.
Second best football simulation ever made.
What was the first
+Tupac Shakur nfl 2k5
+Stephen Aderanti yep
2K>EA
plain and simple
@thevideogameman01 I was very dissapointed they did not include 1st person view football like in 2K5. Still better than madden though.
one season; you just restart each time you finish, keep your stats (written) and you add on, sounds like a lot of work but if willing to there ya go, each season u restart would be an additional year, 1, 2, 3.
still sad because football is the most popular sport in america while nba is second
i feel you.
This is the best football game of all time. People use it for realistic simming over madden. I wonder what this guy thinks about this review nowadays.
What a crappy review. He didn't even TALK about the abilities you have at your disposal in order create your players and team and how they positively effect GAME PLAY.

I love this game.
AND MADDEN DOESNT FEEL OLD HUH
man, this looks better than Madden.

how can you play as diffrent teams. the only team i can play as are nightwings and the wings, i can't play as other teams :/
bakcbreaker?no.madden?no. 2K? YES!
@santaclausiscomin yeah but how long have u seen a NBA LIVE commercial?
I’d love to see 2k drop another football game like this. College though total customizable. Or heck even another game full of hall of fame players. Drop mafia IIII
Well now its 3 bucks and it plays better than Madden 11
If only EA can make NFL games then 2K should try to exclusivise NBA 2K
I thought APF 2K8 fixed and enhanced some things that NFL 2K5 might've done just an ok or bad job on. I think APF 2K8 has THE best gameplay in a football game ever up to this point.
Fun game and alot of good ideas they just need to be expanded upon.
2k games please beat out ea sports for the NFL rights, we really need u back :(
I like the kick meter
@yungj13 No, but they ARE making a Canadian Football League 2k12. Still, though even THAT'S a rumor.
If it had Franchise / Carrier mode it would have done much better.
VC should've went all generic and no Hall of Famers or All Pros But it's still waaaaaaaaaaaay better than even Madden11
i loved 2k5, but this game puts 2k5 to shame.
the graphics looks better than 11s
The one madden where the ambulance would come out onto the field and run over the players was better than madden 15, because they new their game was trash, at least they added some humor
What madden was that?
Oh madden 92
...they should of made a 2K9 to this series

all big game news companies love madden. (who dosnt love money)
2k works a lot harder then ea and the madden is steal fun but it sucks most the time I play it so 2k is the best and ea sucks
ALL PRO STILL REIGNS OVER MADDEN...EVEN WITH NO "REAL" FEATURES SMH
@Mr720Entertainment Don't hold ya breath.
Better tackling then current madden lol
@halo3parade amen!!
Yep, and because of its name recognition, and its marketing prowess, and the fact that it's the only NFL football game on consoles, etc.
if EA liscences NFL then 2K should liscence NBA
also, 2k should liscence NHL.
@jeffskid96 yeah pretty much
