Are you ready for 2K Sports’ return to the gridiron?  Many of you have been unwilling Madden players for the past few years without an alternative source for NFL football.  Although you won’t get your complete fill of NFL greatness with All-Pro 2K8, you will get a taste of some NFL legends with the game.  I’m really not too sure how I feel about that after seeing the latest trailer for the game.  I love Troy Aikman but do I love him in anything but the Dallas Cowboys’ star?

The media has been swirling around this title for a while and I wanted to know what the U360 football crowd felt about this title.  After watching the trailer, I just didn’t get the reaction I thought I would especially seeing the fruity looking uniforms the teams will have.  The animations and play seemed to be okay but not a jaw-dropping improvement over NFL 2K5.  I’m hoping for more from this title especially since it appears it will release next month.

The soundtrack for All-Pro Football 2K8 was released a week ago sporting some very nice tunes so at least the music will be thumpin’.  We’ve also seen the box art for the game with Barry Sanders, John Elway and Jerry Rice looking far more fit than anyone imagined.  Gameplay is what makes a game right?  I hope so because even with the editor in place, I’m struggling to get that old football feeling from this title right now.  With a $59.99 price tag, I really need to get that feeling before I invest in it.

What say you?
