Gameday [stinks] it always has and it always will now madden on the other hand rocks but its a gameday review so lets start the loading times are unbelivably long and once you finaly get in the game the graphics are a improvment but could be alot better and the jerseys colors are way off and you cant even see the helmets gameplay is bad and the commentary is worse the only good thing about the game is the opening movie(witch put a tear in my eye) also its wway too easy. the only reason you should buy the game is if you are a diehard football fan. buy madden

Great!

This is a great game, and it is really a nice looking game. It isn't as good as what is on PS2, but this is ok nonetheless. The gameplay is the same, but it is still exciting and excellent. You really should own this game.

If you like football you should get this game.

I had never bought a 989 football game before and i wish i hadnt bought this one. The graphics are horrible it looks like I'm playing on a super nintendo. If you're planning on buying this game I suggest you wait until you get a Playstation 2 because that's the only way the graphics will be better.

Awesome game, yet challenging

I Got Gameday 2001 for christmas and have played it quite alot. It is extremely fun when you play a human opponent, but I tend to get [angry]when I play the computer because I can't beat it. It is a very good challenge and I think its better than alot of the new football games. I thought that the selection of moves couldn't be better. Overall, I thought this game was pretty good

Wait For Playstation 2 Version

Did you master Gameday 2000? Well I got pretty good and to my dismay realized that Gameday 2001 is even easier. My first few games of 2001 I absolutely crushed the computer on all difficult settings. The graphics aren't very different, though the music's a bit cooler. All in all, not much has changed ... .

not bad, not great...

I have played about 15 games on gameday 2001, both against the machine and against a worthy human opponent and here are my thoughts: 1) The game play is relatively disappointing. This is the first gameday I have bought since they have begun putting dates on the titles (since '96 or '97), so my comparison is with Madden which I find to have more realistic outcomes for particular plays/action against comparable plays. For example, the sweep running play works virtually every time while runs up the middle are almost always squashed - regardless of defense alignment or situation (shouldn't a dive should be a good call against a prevent dime package?). 2) While the graphics are generally very good, the designers have made a quirky sliding action on players cuts that I find annoying. 3) The menus for establishing and playing with modified rosters for non-season games are not intuitive. 4) The statistics kept are very good. Overall, I am a little disappointed and will probably go back to Madden for my next football game, but the game is by no means a bust.

TOO EASY

I love the gameday series and 989 sports but I was very dissapointed with this years verson. It only has a two three really good points and a about 10 bad points.

Frist start off with the good points. The genaral manager mode is supurbe and the satisticts are verry good. And lastly the ability to play as a reciver and run your own route in game.

Alright heare are the big list of bad things. Running is WAY TO EASY in one game when I was the bears there running back(Curtis Enis) who is not ratted very well got 115 yards and I only ran the ball 13 times with the diffuclty on ALL PRO. The deffense is so dumb I ran the same passing play all game long and I caught it every time except once or twice. The players all look the same linemen are as skinny as wide recivers(some exceptions). After awhile you will say God Damn Phill Simms Shut Up. when I made a caught a 70 yard pass Phill Shims said "My old football caoch said look ball in hands, look ball in pit then run like heack good job." I mean did you understand that it's so dumb and he says dumb stuff like that all the time. The last Bug is a tiny one but it gets on your nerves every time you miss a sack even after the quter back has thrown the ball you will get a ruffing the passer penaltie. (Whats Up with that?)

Overall this game is way to easy and has to many bugs. the only fun part this game has is GMM (Genaral Manager Mode) and when your playing agenst a friend becaus you will have someone to laugh with at all the stupid stuff the annoucers say. In two words: Buy Madden

Get Madden

Gameday is an ok arcade game, but Madden tears it to pieces. Gameday has no where near the graphics Madden has, and Madden offers a more realistic game playing. In gameday a tiny HB can drag a DE for 5 yards. It is very similar too last years model.

Gameday Rocks Madden!

Gameday is a the best football game on the market. Plain and simple. Its gameplay is killing maddens, flat out. Gameday specializes in head to head games making them amazingly fun and stragetic. Unlike boring madden where the game is based off of playing the computer, gameday excels in gameplay and head to head action!
