Hiya,

EBGames has madden 2k5 coming out about month after the XBox and PS2
version. And on www.easports.com the PC link isn't even active yet. I know
its early but does anyone here know why the PC version will be late? thanks

It'd be nice if the TV camera view was available in coach mode this
year. Had to give up on 2004 because of that among other things.

Oh and I'm #254.

It's your dog's way of saying, "I want SNAUSAGES!"

My favorite play was the 109-yard field goal.

Sure, but the game never ships with rosters. Not only did I need to put
#'s on myself, and I had to find the current roster myself.

Invariably I'd need to change a number, only to rip off some of the paint of
my Minnesota player.

Face it. Madden had to kill that past time. If we had a choice between
Madden and electric football, there's no way we'd be messing around with
that plastic QB/K.

To "play" Doom 3? Not much for many people.

People tend to get way too caught up on the price of PC gaming. They
forget for the average console game you are limited to 640x480i (or
progressive in a few cases... and console games rarely use antialiasing),
which is a very low resolution by PC standards. OTOH, I imagine a fairly
low-end CPU (1 GHz) with maybe a basic DX 8 videocard would be able to run
Doom III at 640x480. So PC gaming costs as much as you want it to.

My brother has a 3 1/2 year old PC (it wasn't even top of the line when he
bought it). Yet he can still run games like Knights of the Old Republic
good enough for him. The only thing he's upgraded is his videocard (Radeon
9700).
