More on Madden vs. ESPN 2K5 Football

Great comments by the way, including Mike's e-mail stating that Sean has indeed bought and is playing ESPN 2K5 ... and loves it.

Sure, he can do that.  I won't stop him.  $20 is tough to beat!  IGN.com gives ESPN a 9.1, and Gamespot.com gives it a 9.3.  Madden 2005 has some hefty competition.

Is it the price that attracts you to the game?  You're giving ESPN what they want!  All what they're trying to do is take away Madden's market share.

When Madden 2005 comes out, are you willing to give that game a chance?  What happened to the good ol' days -- when we road tripped to Sioux Falls our senior year, bought Madden '96 and rented a Super Nintendo (with a $50 security fee) and played that all night long?  Madden '97 during New Year's at the Townhouse?  Are Madden's days over?

You guys might change -- I will not.  I will be forever loyal to Madden, not to some upstart ESPN game.

Sean, you backstabber!!
