    Don't believe all the hipsters in here who say this game is so much better than Madden. Yes it is better but that is only because Madden has become a steaming pile of dog crap that has been drenched in kerosene, placed in a dumpster and lit on fire. I got this game about 3 to 4 weeks ago. After hearing all the chatter about how it is such a marvelous game, I bought this game off eBay. LetDon't believe all the hipsters in here who say this game is so much better than Madden. Yes it is better but that is only because Madden has become a steaming pile of dog crap that has been drenched in kerosene, placed in a dumpster and lit on fire. I got this game about 3 to 4 weeks ago. After hearing all the chatter about how it is such a marvelous game, I bought this game off eBay. Let me tell you it is far from perfect. I'll give you an example. When you throw a deep ball pass to a receiver, the rest of your receivers stop running their routes and just freeze while the ball is in midair. This is especially annoying when you are running a last second Hail Mary and you throw it to one of your receivers only for him to be impeded by you guessed it, his own frozen teammate. Meanwhile, all of the opposing team's players who are in protecting against the pass, all move in the direction the ball is going. Another glitch is when your quarterback pump fakes it, the ball will spin in his hand. And I don't mean like a spiral, but like a kickoff. Yes it is 2021 and this game was made in 2007, but this review is made somewhat to balance out all the good, hype reviews this game has received from people who use Madden as their comparison. It is still an entertaining and well done game in its own way, but because of the glitches I experienced in gameplay, The hype for this game should not be as big as some people make it to be. I did already know that this game lacked multiple features before I bought it - such as only having a single season mode for its franchise mode and no NFL teams thanks to EA. But for somebody who is thinking about buying this game, just know while it is better than Madden, don't just listen to the people who praise this game as the second coming of NFL 2K5, because the game itself is not as perfect as some say it is.… Expand

    If you read my review on this years Madden then my score here really reflects my dislike for this game. I wanted, NEEDED for this game to be awesome. Unfortunantly it just falls short. The legends portion is tight, but needs WAAYYYY more options. From there on out it goes down the tubes. Game play is aweful, graphics horrid, and depth nonexistent. Maybe a another year or two and 2k will If you read my review on this years Madden then my score here really reflects my dislike for this game. I wanted, NEEDED for this game to be awesome.

    Game is full of glitches. Four attempts to play a complete game resulted in the game locking up at some point. never made it past halftime. Very disappointed.

    The gameplay is decent, but when you pay $60 for a game you expect a complete experience and this game is seriously lacking. It's good for a weekend rental when you want a break from Madden or something, but don't make the same mistake I did and buy this half-hearted game. 2K really disappointed me with this.

    This game is the worst! The stadiums look silly, every player on the player select screen chews gum?! The animations are not clean..they are sliding everywhere, no franchise mode?!?!?! This game is lame. Go get NCAA or Madden when it comes out if you want a real football experience.

    This is a solid game overall -- and without a doubt, All-Pro Football should continue building on this foundation. But if you were expecting 2K euphoria after two years on the sidelines, you'll be disappointed, as this one's got rust in many of the wrong places.

    With no franchise mode, Crib, or many amenities apart from nice stadiums, it’s the lack of connection with the league itself, not the fact that the NFL is missing, that is a letdown. Bolster this aspect and make some gameplay tweaks, and All-Pro Football will threaten Madden’s NFL more than the XFL ever did.

    All Pro Football 2K8 doesn't quite reach championship status, what with its lack of modes and other small items. However, it turns out to be an excellent start for 2K Sports' newest football legacy. Can't wait to see what comes around next year.
