You'll only play half a season and quit.

i picked up it up for ps2
the new superstar mode intrigued me, and so far, it's kind of neat
it's really hard to adjust to playing a single a position, and having the camera from that perspective (fs)
that being said, I got picked 1st in the 3rd round by the texans, and am projected to be a starter!

Dude a one-legged, blind monkey could be a starter for the Texans.

Please tell me there's a way to play All-Madden level but turn off the stupid QB vision "feature". That's the worst piece of dogcrap they've ever added to the franchise.

Read the EA forums and I guess you can't turn it off if playing in all-madden. I can deal with it, but since it's a game and all, I'd hope you could customize it to how you want to play instead of being forced to use something.
Such is life.

Be nice if EA didn't have an exclusive NFL License.
Anyways, in typical Madden game fashion, I get beat like a redheaded stepchild in All Pro, but find Pro to be too easy.

play with the sliders then
ie, pick all-pro lvl, but boost the ability of your players a bit

why tho?
other than maybe 97, or 98, the madden product has always been better than the gameday, or 2k series
I have to admit tho, I wouldn't mind firing up some Tecmo SuperBowl once in a while

NFL 2K and 2K1 were the best football games at the time as EA did not release games for the Dreamcast... (another reason for hate)

Competition and choices are always better. F the NFL for going for the greed.

NFL 2k was awesome. NFL 2k1 had better rushing options. Both of them pwn Madden in my opinion. I never played football video games till I got NFL2k.

Yeah... NFK 2K was the pinnacle of football video games. Well.. besides the Atari football arcade game.
