      1st reply: "Sadly....that guy is exactly right"


      EDIT: Here's a couple more:

      "Hmm Good find ZXLT. It does make sense. Figure it was better then madden so they had to rate it higher. That tells you though how bad the rating systems have been messed up because reviewers rating almost every game 7 and above except a few majorly bad ones be it bad or good. This review shows why reviewers need to do away with the current system. All we need is a buy, rent, etc rating."

        I think the sounds were lower on the Xbox because the sound mix were terrible. When playing NFL on a DD system there are some sound effect problems coming out of the wrong speakers.

        1) QB speech such as calling audibles comes out of the rear speakers and not the front speakers.

        2) PA music, announcer, referee is not in surround sound. Their voices only comes out of the center speaker.

        3) Often when the away team is on the left side of the screen their voice will only come out of the right speaker when calling Heads or Tails.

        Non of these problems are on the PS2 so maybe that's why the Xbox lost the .5 in the sound category.

        I'm not trying to be rude, but I'm 99% sure you got this info from 2k2, not 2k3. Your assuming that because the audio was messed up in 2k2 then its the same this year. Unless you can show me an exact quote and a link, I'm not inclined to think otherwise.

        From the excerpt that was quote from the IGNXbox, the reviewer didn't say anything about the audio having any of these issues.

            &gt;&gt;&gt;guys everyone knows the XBOX version is going to be the best of the bunch which is becoming more and more with games across all platforms . obviously with the horse power the box has the least slow down , bump mapping ect . &lt;&lt;&lt;

            If that's the case, please explain why NCAA 2003 has slow framerate compared to the PS2 version? Explain why the load times are no faster on X-Box than they are on PS2.

              I agree Roughneck, time is short. I need some more opinions.

                You'd have to ask EA Sports why their titles are THE exception to the general rule. From what I can see ONLY EA Sports cross platform titles perform poorly on XBox hardware (compared to their PS2 counterparts).

                  I dont buy that, I see a distinct difference while modifying rosters between both versions. I dont get your agenda Flair4gold, are you trying to prove that the ps2 is a superior system or that the system is equal?

                    The review of the systems and the scores given are not relative to each other. The review scores are contracted by a comparison to other games on the same system.

                    In other words... the 8.5 sound score for the PS2 was a score based on the sound scores of other PS2 games... it's not a direct comparison against the Xbox sound (for which, the Xbox is obviously better than the PS2's version).

                    The reason the Xbox version sound scored was an 8.0 is simple. Halo.

                    If for example the sound in Halo is a 10, you cannot give NFL 2k3 a 9.0 because the sound in Halo is SO MUCH better.

                    The scores are related to the system, not a direct comparison of the various versions.

                    The Xbox version is clearly superior in most regards.

                      "Explain why the load times are no faster on X-Box than they are on PS2."

                      Xbox load time = 13 seconds.
                      PS2 load time = 28 seconds.

                      Timed by me personally. Where are you getting this misinformation?

                          How does the Xbox version lose .3 in the gameplay department if it's the same freaking game?
                          No, I didn't draft Grossman on my fantasy team, what do you think I am an idiot?

                            No online on XBOX. However NFL2K3 takes care of that. I think, the more I see of NFL2K3 and it's franchise..this year might be the first year EVER that I returned Madden and Kept Sega's... Probably will keep Madden for the importing of NCAA 2003...But it's iffy right now.

                              The reviews at IGN are dumb and misleading. It's like telling people that 9.5 is the same as 9.6. All Xbox game reviews of similar game should have at least equal if not higher rating than the PS2 counterpart because the power of the Xbox simply crush the PS2. There is no comparison what so ever. From sound to graphics capability to texture and raw power...Xbox can not be touched. IGN is stupid to base the review on the previous version of the game and it's dumb that they have a set of rule for distribution of points to a particular platform. Man what does the NEW game have anything to do with the previous one..DUH! SO that was dumb.

                                THANK YOU!! IFyou listen to halo in dolby digital and then nfl2k3 there is NO COMPARISION, from what i've heard it is clear that all VC did was do a DD "port" from the PS2, and not put too much extra effort to see if it was authentic or high quality. Why should that even get an 8, he is being generous. football games with dd should sound much better than the ps2 counterpart, not just be in a new format and move some of the sound to the back(the qb DOES NOT belong in the back), this subject you have to own halo with a surround souind
                                and graphics, for the most part nfl2k3 is a ps2 port, not as bad as madden/ncaa, but still nothing makes any special use of the xbox hardware that will wow you. so compare it to what the xbox is capable of to what the PS2 is capable of it goes down.

                                some of you would not get this concept if they had that in every single review. the reviews are based on the individual
                                system. this has been discussed since madden on the 64 and people EVERY TIME SITLL don't get it. get with is some of you

                                the control should affect the overall score, but with 2k3 i couldn't see much of a difference, ath least not as bad as ea's games.

                                dammit how do you quote again!!!!
