    There have been a few improvements. Just if you're looking for a vast improvement you won't find it here.

    When you've been spoiled by the big boys like "NBA 2K2" or "NBA Live," this seems so freshman.

    The unrealistic player movements and lack of AI make this one disappointing.

    Final Four 2002 is by no means an awful game; the developers simply left a lot of room for improvement.

    There are still areas that could use improvement but I must say I am pleased with the progress. This is a College Hoops game that should be given a look.

    While NCAA Final Four 2002 features some big improvements over its very mediocre predecessor, it and the company's reputation still has a long way to go before it regains the respect that it received in the early years of the PlayStation.

    Sub par game physics and the no-skill-needed-to-play is a huge turn off. And graphically only an average title that would have looked great on the PSOne.

    Final Four gets a nonstop trip to Dumpsville. [Dec 2001, p.50]

The only reason I gave it a four is because it had a neat franchise mode. Then soon when you are playing the franchise mode you just get board. I was beating teams easily by 20 points or more.… Full Review »
