this is a very realistic bkb video game but it does has its flaws. for example, Player ratings are really low. One improvement from last year is that with the freestyle mode last year if u used on offense once, u'd blow by the defender every time. This year it takes a bit more patience and work. I really dont notice the "10 man freestyle" so the gameplay is pretty much the same. The graphics are pretty good but they arnt much improved. The music track is much better than last year's and the new pro-hop thing is great new addition and the new commetary is excellent although it gets repetative after a while. overrall though i would recommend it 2 nybody
