but like you said, 2k5 still rotates on the majority of the regular turns, when they should lean in like Madden. try totally reversing field on a toss in '05, whats the back do?
ok, just spent five minutes doing the running drill just to anwser your question. And the anwser turned out to be pretty cool. if you immediatly push the control pad in teh opposite direction you are going you look like barry sanders. your legs start to slide in that direction, you slow down, adn have to reaccelerate. This is only if its an abrupt change in direction, otherwise you just drop your shoulder and turn that way.

What would be cool, is if you tried this in the snow and you slide and fell and were then tagged down. that woudl be awesome if they factored that in.

But it seems like madden has finally done somethign about this problem. its infinitly smoother and more life like then espn, i promise you that.
