If there would've been NCAA 2K3 that ran on the NFL 2K3 engine, I would still be playing it. NCAA 2K3 was sadly just NFL/NCAA 2k2.

However, NCAA 2K3 with NFL 2K3's player models and enine.....hooray.

I love this game always have. I actually picked it up again 6 months ago for 1.99!! So glad I did now, what an amazing game.

Really, really enjoying this game. I'm dying for updated rosters though and only have a 360 XChange (the one that doesn't work). Anyone in Ontario want to lend their XPort to me?

This game is why I don't care how long EA has the license and why I don't have to buy a new NFL game every year.

If I went any bigger, it would not have properly fit with my equipment, so I had to optimize. I'm okay with it, but I also know what I'm missing with those five inches. :)

I have to agree wholeheartedly w/you guys. The game holds up AMAZINGLY well, in all their barrel-chested beauty. Even something as little as the thorough job they did w/the uniforms is all the more appreciated given the minimal efforts EA made the past 3yrs or so. I'm watching the OL/DL interaction and I'm just flat out impressed as I was years ago. And presentation wise, it convincingly smokes anything that came before or after it. I'm surprised I forgot how well the game does stat overlays, in game replays, splash screens, etc. Player interaction is great; post play interaction does a great job of showing player emotion. It's been said before, but it's scary to think what the game would've become if 2K wasn't cut off at the knees w/the exclusivity mess.

I 100% agree with this post title. EA should be ashamed of all the money they have milked all on hype and no product.
This game is better than madden 08 360 for sure.

I love playing this game again, but DAMN it makes me sad to think about how NFL 2K8 would be right now.
