'NFL Street 2' runs up the middle for no gain Like a football season where your favorite team does a little roster reshuffling, but makes no real progress (and misses out on the playoffs), "NFL Street 2," the new football game from Electronic Arts' "EA Big" label, is going to try the patience of a lot of gamers.

Graphics are great and online play is smooth (though unavailable for the GameCube version) but those who know just how many other great and original games are available this holiday season should stick with renting this one. Or pick up last year's "Street" in the bargain bin. You'll barely be able to tell the difference.
