    Aside from the talented AI, there are a lot more impressive game features. One of the first things to come to mind is the incredibly deep playbook and coverage set.

    The game capably competes against any other college football product on the market.
  3. Sports Gaming Network

    Despite the lacking legacy mode of the game and some issues in the running game, NCAA 2K2 is an incredibly fun play.
  4. Planet Dreamcast
    80
    The lack of a true college feel and the bungling of the option may be enough to discourage many from playing what is otherwise a fine football game.
  5. GameShark
    80
    With all of the NCAA teams to choose from and six modes of play including Single Season, Single Game, Scrimmage, Tournament, Network, and Legacy, it's got tons of replay value.
  6. Hot Games

    A quality football game with an excellent pedigree behind its game engine...the most serious deficiencies being in the undeveloped legacy mode and the horrendously bad commentary.

    It just didn't feel as if I was playing college football - the spirit and excitement of defending your school's pride just wasn't there.
  8. Electronic Gaming Monthly

    The good news about NCAA 2K2 is that it plays almost exactly like "NFL 2K1." [Nov 2001, p.216]

    An incredible football experience that is derived from a killer engine that's proven its gameplay worth in gold.
  10. Gaming Age

    Unless you are a fanatical college football fan, there is no reason to own both NCAA 2K2 and "NFL 2K2." NCAA 2K2 is merely "NFL 2K1" with A.I. improvements, and a new coat of paint.
