    In a game that plays this hard -- 2K3 is probably the most challenging football game out this year -- timing is crucial.

    As far as the three main game systems go, the Xbox graphics—as usual—look the sharpest...NFL 2K3 is a straight-ahead, hard-as-knuckles football game.

    The series has always been strong, but never as good as it is this year. In fact it's all but perfect, needing only a few tweaks, a few polishing strokes, and Microsoft's promised Xbox Live! service to make it ideal.

    Madden fans will find the play selection here a little tricky to get to grips with at first. Gone are Madden’s pop-up menus, but once you get the feel of it NFL 2K is just that little bit more satisfying to play.

    For any Xbox owner preparing to own the Xbox Live service, this is head over heels yours over madden. If your not going to purchase the Xbox live service you may want to rent each and make your own decision. Both games offer some variety, and due to the ever growing competition between sega sports and ea sports they are pushed to make them better and better, NfL 2k3 is a solid presentation.… Expand

    Sorry to burst the bubble, but this game isn't *that* good. I dare you to play a full 15 minute game! 120-113? Sorry - there's this thing called a playclock. Anyone at sega, look at EA's college game. Grab a chip, and you'll see your self with a delay of game thinking too long. Flow of gameplay is crucial, and NFL misses that. Shame, too. It's beautiful. If you like 3-minute quarters, this is your game. =)… Expand
