    Why would you bother with its blundering ways with "Madden" and "ESPN" around? [Nov 2003, p.184]

    A rousing, gravelly, NFL Films-style introduction immediately gives way to slippery, sloppy, and outdated PS2 football. [Oct 2003, p.69]

    The highs of the added features are sacked by the lows in basic gameplay.

    While the online component is nice, actual gameplay is where things really fall apart. [Nov 2003, p.53]

    Fun game. It's a different type of challenge and offers decent graphics with some nice game play elements. Good second choice for an Fun game.

    I've also rented all of the 2004 games and this game is pretty good in the online experience, but is just not as convincing as Madden I've also rented all of the 2004 games and this game is pretty good in the online experience, but is just not as convincing as Madden NFL 2004. Don't get me wrong, this is a good game, but i bought Madden over it because it has better features and was more convincing. That's why i gave it a seven. Full Review »

    This Gameday game has improved greatly from previous versions. I would compare this to Madden or better than that.
