The best aspect of this game is easily the gameplay. It feels great in every aspect. Game pace changes with the teams, meaning that if your playing against a defensive specific team, the game will be slower paced, whereas a high powered offense may make the game more dynamic and explosive. It's important to note that both styles of play are incredibly fun. Mode-wise is probably the biggest complaint I had with this game. Because players are all established and supposed to represent the player in the prime of their playing career, It doesn't make sense for 2k Sports to develop a franchise mode, but the concept of some sort of dynasty system would add a great deal of longevity to the single-player experience. Graphics-wise the game delivers in the stadiums and in the facial features though the actual field does have that extremely flat look to it. The color palettes within each stadium as well as a decent atmosphere from the audio help maintain a great experience, but the do not however, help to elevate it. If you're looking for a unique football experience with great online play and quite possibly one of the coolest concepts when it comes to the roster of players, along with arguably the best and most polished football experience from a gameplay perspective, then this is for you.
