Is This Game Worth Buying ?

Is the game worth buying, just because I have NCAA football (Xbox version, im speaking of)

I want a pro football game BAD, but my favorite part is drafting REAL college players. I'm in a predictiment and dont know what to do

Re: Is This Game Worth Buying ?

Im a life long Madden Fan, but the Gameplay just seems flat after NCAA. And Owners mode is neat, but not enough.
And With ESPN and its gameplay I might not play Madden again.
So rent both 1st.
I feel that Madden needs to work over the Gameplay side of the game next year. This like 250 lbs Hb getting killed by a 175 lbs CB. And the bounce effect off linemen and D.

I'd give ESPN a try. I've played both and ESPN just seem more real to me.

Re: Is This Game Worth Buying ?

if you like making decisions like

-do i want a horse shoe style stadium or a dome?
-do i want to make the cowboys in pick uni's or red?
-do i want to relocate a team to Topeka, KS?

then yes, buy it

otherwise, rent it. my guess is you'll be bored and return it to the store before it is even due back

Yes....its better than ESPN. ESPN feels slow, floaty passes, The running game is not all that great. Just because the defense spreads apart like the Red Sea, doesn't mean its good. The DB AI is lacking....Madden corrected its problem.
