Thought it would be a good idea for people to list their impressions of the game.
After playing 2 games here are mine:
1) A ton of fun. Customize everthing...
2) Gameplay is almost exactly like the old 2k5 with better AI
3) Love selecting my old Eagles - Reggie White, Jerome Brown, Randal Cunningham...but the non real players between your stars are a bit cheesy.
4) graphics are good...not great. Kind of expected to be dazzled...but was not.
5) Presentation good (better than Madden), but actually a bit below 2k5
6) Sound is very good with the old 2k announcers much better than Madden (which didn't even have much john madden last year)
7) League management should still be much better than Madden. (which I think still has none)

Good frame rate
Hard to not pick a lot of former Lions on my end. Although, Nighttrane. Lem Barney, Barry Sanders and Herman Moore is tempting.
I agree with the game play the play to me is better with the emphasis from watching and playing has been on the line play.
I can't wait to get the kids out the house so I can crank the sound.
Now if I can tear myself away to OPEN NCAA 08.

For me its all about gameplay. This game has gameplay.
I am having a blast playing with team colors, trying to get a good roster balance etc. This is the game for me no doubt about it.
Based on how well 2k8 performs I will not be getting NCAA or Madden this year. I don't see the point in 3 football games. NCAA would be my only vice, but 2k8 will have me playing and customizing for the season no doubt about it.
I agree that the presentation is below 2k5.. mainly that EA sucked up the ESPN license as well, but Madden has no real presentation so 2k8 still kills Madden in that.
The extra elements in the game really shine. The sidelines being animated and reacting to what is happening on the field is AWESOME. Hit some replays when you do something great and watch your team on the sidelines go crazy! Great Stuff!

I got both APF and NCAA in the last two days and I can't decide which one I like more! I LOVE APF's customization. I also knew Dan Marino would be one of my legends! I was disappointed that there was no Steve Largent in the game and I'll be adapting my roster to add more Seahawks (Curt Warner for one)....really fun game!

2K8 is really a good game. I was thinking about starting a league with only the 11 players as the actually real player names on current teams NFL 2007. Of course the fillers would be still the scurubs, but it should be fun. Need some in put let me know. Thanks
