Is there a way to access it if you just want to play a Quick Game? I don't see it anywhere but Season Mode.

Oh, and is there an issue with game to game fatigue with this game?
I noticed the fatigue level is set to 85 percent or better for substitions. Yet Walter Payton, who ran 18 times in game two, started game 3 on the bench because his fatigue level was at 50 percent AT THE BEGINNING of game 3. WTF.
He has a rare liver disease. Cut him some slack.

This game is perfect.
QB's that feel like QB's... Having to wind up a throw when you're gunning down the field... having to set your feet to deliver an accurate pass, real 3/5/7 step drops, wobbly throws... where ever do they come up with these crazy ideas!?
not really, but it's close enough I don't care

my only problem with the game is controlling the defense is hectic at times. im getting used to it though.
dj, all the league rules will be posted soon enough. but i can tell you right now you can use any and all plays you want. why limit people if we don't have to?

Can we agree that the punt formation then audible to another formation to run out the clock causing a delay of game call on the offense is off-limits?

spec we don't have scumbags in our leagues. OBVIOUSLY that shit is illegal. i know you were probably being sarcastic, but i think the good thing about having an online league through the forums is that there isn't really any anonimity. everyone know whos everyone is, you're not playing some douchebag who you'll never talk to again, so people are more respectable. as i said from the start, our league is a 100% sim league and taking advantage of glitches will get you removed from the league... post-haste!

I've been playing this game exclusively since I purchased it. Its a fast loading game, and it doesn't hiccup at all. The frame rate is locked at a silky smooth 30fps and it allows for some great animation sequences. Their are a few quirks, if you set the game play to fast, it will skip replays visual but you will get the audio. So I play with the game on normal. I'd say the only difference you will find with its counter part on the 360 is frame rate. I have found that some uniform codes created on the 360 work on the PS3.
Game play wise, its "GREAT" if this where a licensed game I would skip Madden. I like the fact that you can select an infinite amount of plays to store in your playbook(I have over 2000 Off/Def plays in my play book). The animations are the best yet for a football game, seeing is believing in this aspect. I love the presence of a pocket and how QB's stand tall in the pocket with signature style throws. I like the implementation of the new "fake" formation. I like now on defense that you have to shift Fronts instead of shifting linemen, this is how it supposed to be in the real world.
What can I say, its a great game, and it plays very well on my PS3.
Anyone interested in playing a 4 team tourney tonight?

A very unscientific poll . . . but it at least shows that 2KSports football has a vocal dedicated fanbase.

The momentum on defense is borked if you ask me, good luck trying to tackle one of those Gold RBs in the open field if you're controlling the defensive guy.
Add in the slight online lag, and yea.

Yeah... that's pretty much my whole offense. Read the D and make adjustments. Multiple hot routes should be default. He calls them out at the line (and you can't snap until he's finished) so I don't know why they'd not let you use them.
Oh how I LOVE playing random asshats online. LOVE IT.
The thing that makes the game I just finished so much worse was that I had TWO game winning FG attempts in overtime that I missed. One of them was less than 10 freakin yards. The wind was at 8 and my timing was a bit late but it said I was centered and the ball flew with the wind like the wind was 80. I must be pushing way over to one side.
I wound up losing in double overtime to this douchebag that ran hurry-up offense the entire game, ran 90% of his plays to Payton and then paused the game on me for 8 minutes.
* game doesn't give you the win if they pause and you choose to quit after the 5 mins have expired. Nice decision there 2k.

I find it helps if you hold A to charge and then use a Right Stick left or right wrap up tackle. If it's one-on-one and you're trailing a Gold RB, forget about it unless it's a Gold defender. But, if you're coming at him from the side or in front there's a good chance you can get him, or at least slow him down enough to allow a gang tackle.
Play me online, I'll show you.

I find that you have to swing the stick earlier than you think you should. I was thinking that you try to match the leg movement on the screen . . . that's wrong. Flip the stick up right at the start of the leg movement.
Truelize said:
Well, I've mostly been doing running plays because I suck at passing. I'm surprised about the pause thing . . . you can't do that in NHL 2K7. I think if someone pauses for more than a 2 or 3 minutes, it gives the other guy the option of allowing continued play or just taking a win.
Yea, about that fair play thing, some guy just went for it on every ****ing 4th down using the same god forskaen play to Campbell. A little dump pass in the flats, I put people in the flats, ran man, nothing ****ing worked and trying to manual defend something that isn't even on the screen is stunning.
Why the **** can't they come up with some kind of A.I. that catches on to the same play running bullshit? It's plagued these games for years. -_-

The game finally appeared at Blockbuster today so I grabbed it. Quickly tried out a game with Marino and Rice, I was unstoppable with those two. The animations are incredible, Mario passes like Marino did.
One stand out moment was on defense, the computer threw at a WR in a slant going out, the WR was open downfield but one of my silver CB in front of him, jumped in the air and tipped it to a saftey that was coming in, the safety intercepted the ball. The anmiations looked like it would in real life, crazy.
I haven't even scratched the surface yet, but I can tell its very very much like 2k5 which is great but I was hoping for a bit more changes. They didnt even change the script for the halftime show its the exact same one Berman would read.
BTW Miami Dolphins uniform please.

My biggest problem also but I guess it will have to grow on me. Tried to return it but they noticed the seal was removed and said I could get $25 store credit. Lucky for that guy the store does not use magazine racks.
If you are still looking for players in the league let me know.

guys keep in mind that 2k hasn't been working on this game for 3 years, so keep that in mind when talking about innovation and so on.

Like they said on the EGM show, that's not our fault. They had the time, they didn't use it. Just because they only used a year of that time, doesn't put their game above criticism. I can't wait to rent it, but it's missing a lot.

well it's not exactly their fault they stopped making NFL games either. i realize this idea could have happened 3 years ago but making a game isn't like eating a chicks ass out after you just met her at the club that night. there are financial things that play into it and while i'm sure all the VC team wanted to make another football game from the get-go it doesn't always work that way nor are they calling the shots from that angle.
sucks that we wont see APF again until 2k10, but i hope they release plenty of DLC!
