Customer Reviews of NFL 2K3

First, let's discuss the game mechanics. Unlike Madden 2002 (I've not played this years' edition so I'll have to compare 2k3 to 2002) the passing game is not incredibly difficult. Sure, it's not easy and you will have your share of interceptions and dropped balls. However, I haven't had anything close to the difficulty I had with learning the Madden passing game last year.
As for the running game, I've had some difficulty with this, but that is mostly due to the fact that my offensive line is less than stellar. When they do show up I don't have nearly as hard a time.

The A.I. in the game is very good but not ridiculously so. In some football games it seems as if the computer always "knows" what play you are calling, and it's defense adjusts accordingly. In 2k3 I've been able to catch the defense napping and they will blow the coverage (something which most certainly happens in the NFL).

The graphics are second to none. Honestly, I don't see how you could get better than this. The stadiums are beautifully rendered and the crowd is so much more realistic than EA's Madden and NCAA 2003. Whether it's a sunny day or in the middle of the rainstorm, the PS2 is certainly up to the task of handling the graphics.

Finally, the game is deep, don't let anyone fool you. You have the NFL combine, the draft, the rookie signings, salary caps, etc... If this game was any deeper it would pretty much be a waste. As it is I have had a hard time using all the stuff, and on some occasions have had the cpu complete the task for me. However, the best thing is that the commentary in 2k3 is WAY better than Madden. There is a larger variety of comments, which, when combined with ESPN style presentation and weekly highlights, certainly puts this game over the top.

Sega, in my opinion, has knocked EA's Madden off it's throne, and none too soon. Football fans rejoice in this classic game. Rather than complain about Madden, the ... commentary and the fact that EA is riding the wave of past successes, go out and get the best NFL game on the market.

10 Stars.. GOOD GAME
I bought NFL 2K3 in October 2003, and i think it is By Far better than Madden 2004. I had played Madden 2004 before, and it was ok, but one on one open field tackling was near impossible, and Some players seemed like they were covered in grease. Also Strategy actually makes a difference in this game, unlike many of its predeccesors. Here are hte Pros/ Cons

Pros: -Online Capable
-Player's stats improve year to year depending on their performance, so bad players can get good, with work.
-Scouting, you scout college players, and you get to draft them.
-You can sign free agents off the free agent wire.
-Strategy of play calling makes a difference.
-Impressive player creating and team creating program
-Customizable difficulty settings, from 3 year old easy, to extremely hard.
-Difficult kicking, unlike Madden games

Cons: -It has froze up on me once or twice
-Create a team mode only has 10 premade uniform styles

This is an excellent game. If i had to pick NFL 2K3, or Madden 2004, id take NFL 2K3. And apart from all that, 2K3 is only $9.99, unlike Madden's $49.99. The main reason i love this game is because it is actually challenging

Hard to find problems
The only thing I can fault about this game is the inability to challenge, but in the game I have never found a situation where the ref. is wrong. It's a great game, and the animations and graphics easily surpass those of Madden. A very good game especially for the price which is very cheap.
