Then why dont you have this already? This is a must for the Playstation 2!! Madden 2001 is truly taking you farther into the game than any other game has to this point. The players textures, accesories and animations are the closest to real players as you get. The 3 dimentional stadiums are eyecandy. No more paper thin fans cheering you on. They have even put in instant replay for those questionable calls. Sick of those perfect game conditions? Push your senses to the limit and run your offense through a bilzzard and fog in...ARIZONA?! This game makes you work for your yards. Run a creative offense or miss the playoffs. Its as close to the real thing as you want to be...

this game is great!!!

I bought my playstation 2 to play EA Sports NBA Live 2001 and was utterly disappointed. A person recommended this game to me and I was admittedly leary about getting it. One, I did not like the Madden Series of games. Two, NBA Live was so bad that I feared another EA title would be just as bad for PS 2. I was wrong. This is a great game. The designers clearly made the game for the PS 2 for the graphics are great, the gameplay smooth and the 360 degree replay camera is the best thing I have ever seen in a game.

True the offense rules, but if you draft some good corners or get a great one in trade or free agency the game is fine. The best thing about the game after the graphics is what I just described: the GM mode, when you are in franchise play, you can draft and manage salary caps and trade players, picks, etc. It is great.

Football Seasoning!!!!

I was very impressed with ea commitment to becoming the best sports gaming company. Madden 2001 for PS2 goes far as solidifying their gaming tile. The graphics are fantastic. The only problem I have with this title is the lack of Human defense. I am amazed at how my cornerbacks lack the tendency to stay with there man. the computers offensive line picks up a your blitz every time. QB sacks are rare the Computer always release and completes a pass when your man is about to put the qb in the hospital. but these are little things that can be tweaked for future releases. I love the franchise mode I have taken several franchise from the bottom to the top and kept within the salary cap. If you are a real football fan, you have to have this one.

Best NFL game ever

Madden 2001 is one of the greatest video games out there. The attention to detail is incredible and the game play is fun and true to football. There are tons of features and the Madden Challenge adds a great aspect to the game. Examples of what makes this game great: you can run the ball and you can call a fair catch on a kick off. That may sound insignificant, but Madden is a football sim. If you want an arcade football game play NFL2K1 on the "swirl". Just like in real life Madden is what football should be.

This is the best sports game that I have played to date. The graphics are absolutely amazing. The gameplay is terrific. It is almost like you are watching a real game and controlling the players. Another thing that is really cool is the commentary. Madden and Summeral do the play by play and it is the best that I have ever heard. The comments are totally relavent to what is going on, on the field. I haven't noticed any serious repetition yet, but I have only had the game for a weekend. I think if there is one spot the game is lacking, it is in online play, but the modem peripheral for the PS2 isn't going to be out for a while, so it's kinda harsh to fault the game for that. Maybe next year.

The best game ever

Madden 2001 for PS2 is the best football game out there. The controls are easy, and you can make big plays easily. The running game is superb. The passing game is great. The stadiums are detailed down to the last bit of grass. If you look at the sidelines you can see the tables with the Gatorade containers on them, and everybody in the stands have emotion. This game is truly Madden and fun to play.

Good Football Game To Start The New Life Of Sony's PS2!

The game play is great! The create a player kicks so bad that it could leave you there for a hour doing so. The only problems I found in it was it took to much time to save and load and the controls somehow seem to change during the game. Overall, it is a fun 4+ player game as well as 1 or 2 players.
