fever more FUN then espn?

so in your honest opinion is fever or eson more FUN. by fun i don't mean more realistic or better animations or whatever, i just mean fun. i ask this, because i bought madden, decent game, great franchise mode. however, due to the lack of really enjoyable gameplay i am going to buy another nfl game, and i thought i was 100% set on espn but now i am thinking possibly fever. any input is appreciated, thanks.

I wouldve said Fever, but than my mom told me never to lie... ESPN is the best football game ever. I got fever but returned it... fever is good no doubt and Ill pick it up again when it drops price but the complete package of ESPN is breathtaking

Renting is the best way to go. They're both fun games, but they play VERY differently. ESPN is amazing, but Fever has some good qualities too (like Read n Lead passing).

There is no comparison. ESPN plays a much more realistic game of football, it has much better player control, and the action is incomparably more fluid. It's both a better simulation and more fun, and by a wide margin.

Re: fever more FUN then espn?

Well, I haven't played ESPN yet, but I've played every other 2k game extensively and from what everyone seems to be saying, it beats the h*ll out of 2k3. I liked 2k3 a lot.

If you read my Fever review post, you know I think Fever is DAMN fun! Read and lead is the new standard IMO. It won't catch on right away, because everyone will be out there adjusting umpteen sliders to tweak ESPN and Madden players will invent new and improved popcorn or whatever in owners mode. Fever doesn't have sliders and it doesn't have owner's mode. (If I want that much control, I'll buy a text sim). What it does have is an awesome and complex new passing scheme that makes you concentrate on reading defense and putting the ball in the right spot with the right strength at the right time. Simple as that. It, in a word, is innovative. AND... it works beautifully!

So, Fever is a FUN game! Something tells me if another game came out with Read and Lead, it would be like the second coming, if you get my drift.

I think NFL Fever 2004 is a very fun game. Also liked 2k3 and I'm sure I'll like 2k4 when I get it. But, I have a feeling I know pretty much what I'll be getting with ESPN. I was SURPRISED by Fever!
