Why would you get PS2 in the first place. I have PS2 and my bro had DC, and I highly reccomend DC. The games are 1000 times better, along with the playability. PS2 STINKS! Don't get this game, or PS2, get NFL 2K1 and DC, BELIEVE ME!

DONT BUY THE HYPE LIKE I DID!

This game is not all that great. Neither is the ps2. sure one day it will be as good as sony promised. (at least 5 years) but the differneces between dreamcasts nfl2k1 and madden 2001 are huge. Madden 2001 just has shiner looking players. thats IT! slightly better graphics. madden actually has fat looking players that dont look real, tackle real, or do anything real. they have the same animations and the ai is terrible. i own both games so i know what im talking about. NFL2k1 also has online play. Madden doesnt. Be happy with your dreamcast and dont even worry abouot the ps2 shortage. there isnt a reason to get one anyway.

Not even close to NFL2k1

This game is wack. I'm sorry, but the players look like Blitz players, the control is off, the field looks choppy, the crowd looks like a painting and as always Madden comes up short of making a good game. NFK2K1 has more realistic movements, fields, player sizes, and just gameplay. I can pick up NFL2K1 and know exactly where the ball is going to go. If you know how to play real football, you will know how to play NFL2K1. If you like simulating NFL game expierence, you will like NFL2k1. Madden is disappointing. I have both and you will like NFL2K1 a lot more.

Open Your Eyes, Parents, Listen To ME!

Ok I agree Ps2 Is powerful, and it has a lot of perks. The Dvd is a great feature, and a few of them games look good, but open your eyes. Dreamcast is half the price, and has over 200 good games, over 50 of them are AAA games. As for Madden NFL 2001, It is a good game, I have no doubt, but it is not the best football game. NFL 2k1 for dreamcast has as good as graphics, more options and INTERNET PLAY. With Dreamcast and NFL2k1 You can play anyone anywhere with dreamcast, isn't that a feature that PS2 sure doesn't have. As for the dvd, for the price of PS2 you can buy a dvd player and dreamcast. Oh and by the way, you can actually buy a dreamcast now, unlike the 6-12 month wait for ps2.

NFL 2K1 is better!

One thing I have say is that the graghics on NFL 2K1 are better. The only thing they did for the glare on Madden is put a bright spot on it. On NFL 2K1 they made it so it would in real life by putting the reflection of the lights on the helmets. If i was you I would buy a Dreamcast and get NFL 2K1.

Game Freezes when trying to play a game!!!!

I purchased this game on May 15, 2001 and I could not play a game. After contacting Sony Support they said a lot of people are having this problem if they have a PS2 from the after Christmas production but a Madden 2001 from before Christmas. You can send your PS2 back to Sony for service, no idea if it is free or not. My choice is to not buy this game and wait for Madden 2002 due out in the fall. Shame on Sony and EASports for having no warning about this on either of their websites. This glitch only affects the Madden 2001 game since it was designed based on a prototype to be one of the first 5 games released. Other than that the PS2 is great.

NFL 2K1 is better!

One thing I have say is that the graghics on NHL 2K1 are better. The only thing they did for the glare on Madden is put a bright spot on it.

Not too great.

Wow. I bought this game along with the Playsation 2 at launch and there is only one word to describe it: DISAPPOINTING. This game looks okay, but the play control, frankly [is bad]. Just like all the other madden games, but with little improvements in the graphics department. This game doesn't even have CURVED LINES! All the "curved" lines seem jagged do to the lack of anti-aliasing. Even though in the commercial, it looks neat, but those clips are just the instant replays. Anyway, this game has nothing over Dreamcast's NFL2k1. 2k1 is soooo much better. It does have it's weaknesses, but not as much as this game. 2k1 has online play, curved lines, and it is easy ... to pick a play. I am not a sega loyalist, so this review is NOT biased. This game seems very rushed. If EA took a lot more time, this game will be very excellent next year. IS IT JUST ME OR DOES THE PS2 SEEM LIKE A HUGE DISAPPOINTMENT??!! Oh well, believe what you want to, this is just my opinion.

ultimate question

Nowhere near Madden 2001 for PSX1! Forget about "giving him the business" after the whistle because just like NFL2K1 the play is automatically stopped after the whistle. And you will know the play is stopped because the camera automatically zooms in on the player involved. After every play you will see a huge player, faces all the same, blinking until the choose play screen appears. Other disappointments include big arrow on kick offs making it simple, impossible to shed blocks and no 86 Giants-you got to be kidding! Listen--stick with the dreamcast. PSX2 launch is a joke(this is what I waited an extra year for) game developers are already anticipating the xbox and Maddens 2001 is no good.
