    You have it correct. Peaked then and both the nhl and nfl games surpassed madden and nhl 05 and 06. The exclusivity deals prevented 2k from releasing nhl and nfl games, while ea couldn't make mlb games (and 2k butchered it).

    I haven't played NFL 2k5 in a while, but I still play NHL 2k6 all the time. It's the only reason I still have my original XBOX plugged in. My Nieuwendyk, Mogilny and Tucker line will fuck you up. Belfour is usually great in the first 2 periods, but he slides in the third. He'll almost always blow a shutout in the final minute, but the game might be programmed that way to try and keep the novelty of shutouts.

    IDK, think I would have had NHL '93 on this list somewhere too.
    And so you see, I have come to doubt

    I stand alone without beliefs

    Now I'm getting angry about how good Gran Turismo 5 could have been if the navigation windows were not such a brutal discombobulation. I remember waiting five years and going thru multiple delays, my first reaction after playing the game was, "They should have spent more time ironing this game out".

    Oh, but the intro was pretty awesome.

    Good call. The only downfall of BOS was that you couldnt elevate the puck.
    Regardless, a classic game that was ahead of its time.

    A game I would have included on this list is 1080 Snowboarding on N64. Great, great game.

    WWF is not a sport. Yeah yeah, I know, they're very good athletes, but so are Cirque du Soleil performers, that doesn't make it a sport.

    I can't believe it either that there isn't a single racing game, especially since they put WWF on there. Pole Position, Excitebike, Rad Racer, etc.

    My problem was hockey games where you could only play north and south, I was only worth a damn going north.
