Wake Up Madden

I've alway's been a Madden fan until last year when I played the NFL2K1. I bought the Madden 2001 and played it. It was alright but it was just lacking something. I bought the Madden 2002 and it's the same thing. Madden is boring and unrealistic. EA Sports does to much of the graphic BS and to less of realistic football. I bought the NFL2K2 by sega also and if you like football games I promise you you won't be able to put this one down. The players movements are much more realistic than Maddens and the game play is much better than Madden. I don't know if I'll ever buy another Madden game after playing Sega's sports lineup. All the Sega sports games have been better than any others that I have played on the playstation 2.

A dissapointment, keep playing last years version.

If you own Madden 2001 for the PS2, theres no need to get this. The only things better in this are the graphics, which have improved only a little, and the option of saving during the middle of a game. The very slow load times makes this game almost unplayable, but if you don't mind the load times, and dont have the prequel, get this one, or rent it.

different? not much

Madden 2002 was not much different then 2001. They have new rosters and better faces but you can't realize that the faces are better.(what are you going to do instant replay it evertime.)My opinion keep 2001 and hope there will be an improvement in 2003.

No Online Play?!??!??!

WHAT NO ONLINE PLAY???? As an avid fan of football video games, I must admit that I will stick with the slightly inferior Sega NFL2K2 simply because I can play online with NFL2K2. Until EA develops online play for Madden, I will stick with the Sega NFL 2k? series, even with the Xbox. Online play is redefining the football video game genre...c'mon EA, get with it!

The best football game this year

Madden 2001 for PS2 was one of the best football video games I had ever played. So needless to say, I could not wait for Madden 2002 to come out. I was doing some research about Madden 2002, and I had read noting but good reviews about how the EA Sports team had improved on the 2001 edition. No one could image my disappointment when I play Madden 2002 for the first time. The first change that caught eye was the poor detail on the graphics of the players. They looked like the old block players on earler edition of Madden 1995 on your good old "Sega Genesis". The old verison of play-calling is back/and it's w/out the players plays. I.E the James Jett slant, Tim Brown hook, etc. If you played 2001 you will see the differences in the play calling. The game slows down when there are too many players in one area, which does not move the game on one smooth playing control system. The major difference I had with 2001 & 2002 was the gameplay. When I play 2001 I feel like I can interact w/the, by the realistic feel of the game and that allows me to enjoy the game. When I play 2002 I feel like your playing a video game and you can not interact and enjoy the game. Madden 2002 is not worth your ... bucks, you be better of paying [price] for Madden 2001 or dust off that old sega and enjoy Madden 1995. Madden you have just be penalize for making this "BS" and you have walk back about 7 years in the sports video gaming world.

"Realism" should mean realistic stats, not just cool jerseys

If a realistic simulation of the NFL is what you're looking for, save your money. The game is visually beautiful and fun in an arcade-style way, but true realism is once again sacrificed by EA in order to spend more time improving graphics.

It'd be great if EA would work on making the stats anything close to realistic in franchise mode. Unfortunately, they are more obsessed with capturing the exact facial contortions involved when a player makes a block. I guess that if they get more detailed jerseys and "cooler" sound effects, they see that as a great step towards "more realistic" football action.

How they then can leave the stats resembling something out of Tecmo Bowl is beyond me.

If you like realistic franchise operation, try out Football Pro '98, which is still widely supported online and actually can be made to produce the sort of realism that matters - statistical realism.

Simpily Amazing

This game is is just plain awsome. The graphics are breathtaking, the gameplay is smooth, and the new features that Ea sports comes out with each year really make this game stand out. For all you dreamcast fans who give this game 1 star for no online play don't know what there talking about. This game I think is the future game of the year. AND NOTHING IS GOING TO STOP IT!

The Best!

This game is just awesome. It has great graphics and excellent gameplay. The best part is create a team. It gives you the ability to make your teams uniform and your own statdium! You can choose from over 40 logos. Players are very detailed as well.
If your looking from great football action, this is the game for you!

I just bought this game yesterday, and i can't stop playing. Whenever I watch football i'm always yelling at the tv because the donkey players won't catch the ball or make a completion. This game lets you do it. The graphics are unbelievable. The only thing missing is commericial and real money cheerleaders on the side lines(such is life right). The training mode really helped me develope my skills. The only complaint i have is that you constantly have to save the game(the only awesome thing about a nintendo cartrige). do it for the pookie with "BOOM"- john madden
