Not as bad as people make it seem

This game is not as bad as previous reviewers have made it look. It is missing quite a few teams and it is missing the season mode, however... It has an interesting new tournament mode that allows all 64 teams (your choice) to play wherever and whoever you want. You can also create- a - team with jersey, stadium, a list of players that you can make look however you would like, and even your choice of coach, logo and location. I created my local team that was missing down to the exact details of their names and faces. You can also easily make up a team. Fun.

Well, being new to the entire playstation and gaming world, this was the first game I played on PS2. i thought the graphics were great and all but I find it to be annoying. there isn't much you can do besides either play a regular game or the tournament. I think I would love to have a dynasty or a full season leading to the tourney. I do like how the teams play as well as their standing. When I played Duke vs Maryland (GO DUKE!) it felt like the real thing when those two teams come together for real. No team can win two in a row and I like that. It's realistic that way. But overall, it gets boring fairly quickly when all you can do is play tourney or a regular game. I bought it yesterday and today, I'm bored.

I brought MM 2002 thinking this will better than the 2001 ps1 version, but I was betrayed by EA Sports! I was looking for an improvement of the scouting to find there's no scouting!! No franchise mode! You can not call any set plays, so you are basicly guessing where the open man will be (I like shooting treys off a screen!) Commentary is bad and boring. I think the gameplay would have been good if I was so annoyed with the missing features!RATING: 0 stars

Before renting this game I expected it to be a lot like the College Football edition. Boy was I wrong. You can't Have a dynesty or a season. The Torny is all right. But I tried it and Missouri Won. MISSOURI! Being a newcomer I thought the graphics were awsome. Better than the first. But despite the graphic improvement, EA Sports is Standing Still.

I played this game one time and it has sat ever since. Graphics are nice but reality is very low. Doubtful that I need to mention the lack of replay value with no season mode. I am truly dissapointed by EA's lack of effort on this one. I will credit the gameplay and that is what probably dissapoints me the most. The players look good the courts look good although the courts I played on had the color scheme all wrong. Once you have the player modeling and the background set, how difficult would it be to fill in the correct colors ? How tough is it to bring in the season mode ? We have it on every other EA game ! What a let down!


This game should come with this warning: DO NOT BUY

There is no doubt about it - this game is the worst EA Sports has ever come out with. When I got my PS1 a couple of years ago I bought EA's March Madness '98. That game is by far better than MM 2002. It's as if EA was scrambling to throw a game onto the market and pitched up this meatball. No women's teams (like in the '98 version), no dynasty, not even a Season Mode; I mean come on. I'm only glad that I rented the game instead of buying it; I advise you to do the same. (Now I don't know what I'm going to do with it for the remaining four days of my rental).

what happened EA?!

Unlike what others say I like playing this game. The gameplay is very realistic. The graphics are pretty sharp and the AI is actually good at defense. The reason why this game is a failure in most peoples minds is that you can only do three things: play a regular game, play in the NCAA tournament, and create a school which you can use to do the other two options. There is no season mode which was very shocking to me considering that it isn't that hard to add to the game. If this was last year, I would have symphasized for them not having a fantasy mode because it is a college game, but after playing NCAA Football 2002, they have no excuse. The only reason why I bought this game over Final Four 2002 was because the graphics and gameplay in Final Four was so bad that all of its modes, including a very cool coaching mode where you start with a bad school and move up, couldn't make up for it. Final Four didn't even have a cross-over. Right now, if you want a college b-ball game than get March Madness, but if you can wait, stick around for Sega's game and then rent all three and make a decision.
