Besides the quarterback vision thing, what other changes are there?
After EA signed the exclusive contract with the NFL, I don't think they were able to spend too much money on product improvements...

Truck Stick
WR Slide
Back Juke
There is some new d line adjustments
There are new o-line blocking schemes
I don't know what it is called, but there is a new"all star" feature where you can create a new player or be one of the new drafted players. You then hire a agent, go through contract nego, practice, weight training and progressively get bigger and bigger houses as your career progresses.
It's Madden, it's pretty much the same game with updated rosters, better graphics and a few new features!

I'm sticking with 05. Maybe I'll get 06 for xbox 360 at the end of the year. I'm sick of spending fifty bucks on this game every year just for some stupid new feature.

Big Block go VROOOM!
I gave up on the EA Sports games long ago when the NHL series went to shit. It became all about graphic improvements and adding near-useless features. It seemed like actual gameplay fixes/improvments were pretty much abandoned. 
EDITOR'S NOTE: That's only 60% of why he have it up. The other 40% were anger management issues after he smashed two joysticks due to the seething rage the game AI brought about in him.

I thought ESPN 2k5 blew. I played one game and haven't touched it since. I didn't like the gameplay, but the ghetto fabulousness of it made it unplayable.
and all those reviews that rated it close to Madden took the price into consideration. If it were priced the same I doubt anyone would have bought it.

That's your problem. You only played one game. Same for the bball game. I hated NBA 2k5 but after "learning" the game it's one of the best I played. Bleh, we can go back and forth, I don't want to turn this into an EA vs ESPN thread. Bottom line is for 06 only Madden is out. 
on monopoly.

I got it Monday night for free through a tourney at my local blockbuster. I did not expect to win, so prior to the tournament, I preordered it for $25.00 with two trade ins. Then, after I won, I sold my extra copy to the 2nd place finisher for $40.00!
Overall, I am a little frustrated with QB Vision. I like the game a lot, but passing is much more difficult than last year. I can't wait till I figure out the passing game because I am not the greatest at running.

From what I heard, EA bought ESPN's license for the next 15 years.
I still enjoyed the gameplay of Madden over NFL 2K5 last year, but the broadcasting/presentation of NFL 2K owned Madden. The good news is, they say that ESPN broadcasting/presentation will intergrate into the Madden Series in the next years to come.

ANyway, picked it up today.. will give it a shot later. I too have heard that the QB Vision thing is annoying, but I also read that you can turn it off.... so that should help...
