Pros: awesome graphics, ultra-realistic gameplay, tons of modes Cons: the Patriots still suck
I’m a big fan of sports games. If made correctly, they never become tiresome. They’re not linear like most other games. There’s no real way to “beat” them. You can play a good sports game almost forever. I played NHL 94’ for the SNES for about a year...
Pros: Better graphics, better gameplay, better sound, more options. Cons: Commentary still annoying, AI still needs a little tweaking.
For those who remember, I was one of the few people to simply just slam Madden 2001 like there was no tomorrow. For good reason, too. The game had the most hideous AI, gameplay, and options for something that had so much potential. Well, EA turned...
Pros: Defensive A.I. is wicked, graphics are much improved Cons: Football players don't usually run into their blocker's backside
I've had this game for some time now. Originally I wanted to get a review out right from the start. However, I decided that I wanted to play this game enough to submit a formidable review. By reviewing it off of only a few games played, I wouldn't...
Pros: The Best Video Football Game EVER! Cons: I can't run on All-Madden.
Like a right of passage at the end of each summer I anxiously await the latest version of Madden Football from EASports. For me this started probably 15 years ago when Tecmo Bowl for Nintendo was the latest and greatest. I remember the first "Madden"...
Can you hear the roar of the crowd as sports fans anticipate the wait of football season as it quickly approaches in the upcoming week. What better way to start the season off with an upgrade for one of the best selling sports games from EA sports,...
Without fail, there is one sports simulation that no only changes and improves year to year, but takes gaming to a whole new level.
Im talking, of course about Madden NFL 2002.
For those of you that have been living in a US Sports-less...
Pros: Excellent Graphics And Gameplay Cons: John Madden's Commentary
There’s not a lot of ways that EA Sports could really improve upon the Madden franchise that has been their bread and butter for years and years now. Madden 2001, the first definitive football title for the virginal Playstation 2, seemed to hit...
Pros: The battle of the consoles; great graphics; interesting and addictive game Cons: addictive
What’s going on in the more than $7 billion video-game industry? For the regular fans, enthusiasts of video game, most of the following is not anything new. What’s new is that a major player such as Microsoft is determined to take a major piece of the...
Pros: great graphics, fun to play, many different and unique modes of play Cons: memory needed to store data
Usually I do not care to play sports games that much. I might play one game once every two weeks on the average. However once I started playing Madden NFL 2002 on the PS2, I could not stop. This is one game that I believe I will not get tired of...
Pros: Beautiful graphics, realistic gameplay and animations, new music, adjustable AI, lots of options Cons: Commentary is repetitive and sometimes stupid
I remember back in the early 90's when EA Sports brought us Madden football. It was groundbreaking 3-D football with tiny little team characters and side-splitting (or annoying...depending on your demeanor) sound-bytes from John Madden himself. It was...
Pros: Franchise mode Cons: awkward player models, slow gameplay, horrid play call screens, just a bad football game
Madden NFL 2001 was one of the most critically acclaimed games that launched with the PS2. However, unlike many, I was not impressed. In my opinion Madden 2001 was too slow, too hard to control, and had too many AI issues to be enjoyable. However,...
Pros: Best NFL game to date for the PS2 Cons: Graphically inferior to NCAA 2002, and IS NCAA 2002 with NFL uniforms.
Ok, I have read countless reviews about how great Madden 2002 is for the PS2. Let me preface my review buy first stating my gaming history. I have played the Madden series every year since 1992, and I currently own 2001 for the PS2 and NCAA 2002 for the...
Pros: franchise mode, replayablility, incredible amount of options Cons: madden still talks, weak instruction booklet
This game is just unreal. The heart of the game is franchise mode, so that is where i spend most of my review, but of course there is more to it then that...
The graphics are incredible. They really put a lot of effort into the details, down...
Pros: Better Secondary and Linebackers, Crisper Graphics, Challenges Cons: Challenges could use tweaking, Not too many new plays, No 85 Bears team
Why Maddens is consistently #1 (synopsis of past versions)
In about the year 1991, the first truly great Maddens came out. Millions of gamers discarded their copies of Tecmo bowl, no longer could defenses literally pick the offenses' plays...
Pros: very fun, keeps your interest Cons: each game is long
I recently got Madden 2002 for ps2 as a Christmas present. I thought this was one of the perfect gifts because I love football, and second love football games. The gameplay is absolutely incredible in Madden. The only downfall is that it takes an hour...
Pros: The best Football video game ever, Daunte is on the box, instant replay challenge Cons: None, maybe too realistic because the Vikes defense really sucks.
I need to preface this review, I love sports videogames for the simple fact it will never be exactly the same game ever! Therefore, I own 3 PS2 games. Madden 2002, Tiger Woods 2001, and NHL 2001.
Pros: Graphics. Create-a-player and create-a-team features. Easy game control Cons: The new kicking meter is too sensitive. Redundant announcing.
Picking up where 2001 left off the newest edition of the Madden series of football games for PlayStation (now PS2) leads the pack again. Improving on the already impressive graphics of 2001, 2002 incorporates more faces and expressions on the players and...
Pros: Amazing Graphics, up to date rosters, great gameplay Cons: very few
Being a freshman in college, I needed something constructive to do with my time. That's why I bought a Playstation 2 console when I was moving up to college. I looked at a selection of sports games and found Madden 2002. I had played other Madden...
Pros: Just what you would expect out of the Madden series Cons: There really isn't any. Maybe having better situational comments would improve things
Madden NFL 2002 is quite simply, a must have for any self respecting arm-chair football hero. The awesome graphics, the fluid gameplay, and fact that your THIS close to controlling your favorite players from the sidelines of your favorite stadium makes...
Pros: Great graphics and sound Cons: None really just a good game
With graphics as smooth and detailed as you’ll see on the aging system, plus two new play modes to add to the already deep lineup of game types, Madden 2002 is the PlayStation football game to own. Included is the old 16-bit version of the classic...
Pros: This is Madden what else can I say? Cons: The commentary is still annoying.
Looking back on every console I have bought, well besides the NES and Dreamcast, there has been one constant, an EA sports title. SNES was Madden, Genesis was NHL, Playstation was Madden, N64 was Madden, PS2 there was Madden. These EA sports titles...
Pros: Improved game engine, Sweet graphics, Options galore, Franchise Mode, Improved pass defense, Coach's challenge Cons: Computer AI cheats, Not enough commentary variety, Sluggish control at times
When you first compare Madden 2002 with Madden 2001, some of the differences are slight. The graphics are a little bit better. The players no longer have zombie eyes on close up. One handed catches still happen, just not every other play like 2001....
Pros: AWSOME graphics, fun game play, and a great replay program Cons: after one season it gets boring. $45-$50
Madden Continues it's Reputation for Excellence
Before I got Madden 2002, it was the one game I had wanted. The graphics are unbeliveable, an dI knew that. So the moment I read Best Buy had it on sale I ran to Best Buy and bought it right...
Pros: simple to save games, training mode Cons: no defensive training mode, annoying rap music
Ok, I admit it, I'm a Playstation nut. Also a committed football nut. So its no surprise I went out immediately on release date and purchased Madden 2002. I was expecting lots of new surprises, changed gameplay and weird camera angles. I was so...
Pros: Deeper gameplay, tons of features, improved AI and improved details Cons: can still learn the game enough to beat the computer quite easily
I'm sure most of you have played almost every Madden game that's come out...From the SNES to Playstation 2, Madden has covered them all. Madden 2002 is no doubt the best football game on the market right now. Although it may get some stiff...
Pros: Gameplay, imagination factor, and graphics Cons: At times seemingly unrealistic events
PS2s Madden 2002 is at this point the best football game on the market both past and present. I have been playing football video games since Tecmo Bowl for the original Nintendo. Madden 2002 looks great when you turn it on for the first time, and it...
Pros: Game never gets old. Too much to do Cons: Needs more defensive options
Madden 2002 has done it again, clearly the best game out there. With all the options, you can never honestly "beat" the game. The graphics and game play are superb, and the newer tackling and receiving action is realistic. There are far too many ways...
Just when you thought it couldn't get any better than Madden 2001 for the Playstation 2, this takes the cake.
The graphics are really much more improved. The colors and uniforms look much smoother and the motion of the players is astonishingly...
Pros: This version of Madden is much better than the previous version. Cons: The way the players hold and catch the ball looks weird.
If this isn't the best football game, I don't know what game is. From exhibition to franchise mode this game has it all. John Madden really knows what he is doing when he makes these games. I'm waiting for when he finally is available to be a coach or a...
This is a great football game. Mind you that I was one of the people who picked NFL2K1 over Madden 2001 simply because NFL2K1 had quicker and more satisfying gameplay. But still I looked forward to Madden 2002 because the Madden series has always at...
Pros: Awesome graphics. Fun for everyone. Cons: Boring at times.
Madden 2002 is the ultimate party game. The graphics are stunning, as they take the ps2's ability to the max! First things first, the learning curve. The learning curve is fairly simple, but because of the numerous buttons on the ps2 controller, it...
Pros: The pros of this game is that the hits are real. Cons: The cons of this game is there are few defenses.
This game is one of the best sports games of all time. It can also be argued to be the best game for the Playstation Two. The graphics can not be beaten. They show so much detail it will blow you away. It shows the coaches getting mad, the players...
this is the best sports... by joysie_dt3000 ,Aug 31 '02
this is the best sports game i have played as it gives the player almost every opportunity to do as he feels in the context of the game. The only improvement would be to let the player create his own playbook with moves specially picked by the player.
If you love sport games... by ajkj207_dt3000 ,May 09 '02
If you love sport games for the PS 2 this game is a must. The graphics are so real that when I fisrt got the game, my wife thought it was a real game on TV. You will not be able to put the controler down when you get this, a must for football fans.
