Re: For those of you who bought madden (and actually liked the game). . .

I've always loved the NCAA because it's college football, and I freaking LOVE college football. That being said, NCAA has so many problems that I sometimes want to throw my controller out the window. Bad blocking, Mario running...these are things that should be fixed by now. I still love to play it because UGA can be found no where else, but DAMN it would be nice if Sega would make a solid college game.

ESPN is incredible from top to bottom. It's the most fun I've had playing a football game in a very very long time. Amazing stuff, and the presentation is absolutely unbelievable. I love the Crib, except my ugly *** couches

If I were you, I would run to the store and grab it. It's the most complete football game ever made in my opinion, and none of it feels "computer-determined" if you know what I mean.

I enjoy both NCAA and Madden2004. Each have some great things and fustrating things, but I play them every chance I get. In both, I love some aspects of the gameplay.

That being said, ESPN just has a WOW factor to the gameplay that EA can't touch. I am sure problems will arise, but it has been great so far and I am much more excited about playing it than I was when I first got either of the other two. ESPN just seems to do a better job of recreating football on the field than EA does, by a significant margin in my opinion. It may take some time to get used to since their is less momentum, but I am really impressed by it and will be spending most of my time playing it as opposed to EA's offerings.

I was loving Madden prior to playing this game, now the only question that remains for me is what to exchange Madden for. Any suggestions (Thinking WSB2k3)?

The momentum in Madden just killed me (ESPN and NCAA do it much better). I would miss too many tackles if I took the slightest wrong angle to the ball carrier, yielding a 60 yard touchdown. Throw in the fact that I could never run the toss and it sealed the deal.
