ESPN 2K5 - The hard is what makes it good.

The Bad: The fact that Live 2003 has smoother, bolder graphics. Also, Bill Walton flaps his annoying lips in your ear almost the whole game. The Good: Real Sim. Hard to learn, but very realistic and one of the deepest sports titles ever. I played 4 games last night, (first night), and I have just begun to learn how to play this game. I was frustrated at first, but grew to appreciatte all the game is capable of. Also, tons of innovative and interesting locations to set your game. (egypt, gym, beach, park, and many others) In short, best bang for your buck. If you enjoy sports sims for their realism, this is the game for you. Put in the time to practice, the game gets better the more you play and learn.
