You watch. Sega is going to use that little bit of extra time to get a little more polish and get rid of a couple more flaws. This will result in a better game. Unlike Madden who rushed to get there first, just to have the hype die out in time for ESPN's hype to get going. It will be fine.

Less then a month's difference in release dates isn't a big thing in the developement world. Sure they're going to have more polish and most likely less bugs but to say that Madden has rushed it's release date is a bit absurd as Madden has historically been released around this time.

I'll be buying both and the 3 weeks between Madden and ESPN will allow me to focus on one game while at the same time saving up for another.

It's called MARKETING.

Labatt, buddy, I know it's only your opinion, but, take it from me, man, just PLAY BOTH GAMES. Tell us what you think afterwards, dude. Thank you and good night Seattle...or whatever town this is.

The delay is because of the name change because NFL 2K4 had a release date of july 30 and when they announced the name change they said september 4.
