    Graphically…it is superior to both [Madden and 2K2], with the textures on the field looking particularly amazing. [Jan 2002, p.36]

    If you’re a diehard gridiron fan looking for an accurate simulation of the sport, you’ll likely want to stick with EA Sports’ Madden NFL 2002. With that said, NFL Fever looks and sounds awesome, and plays fast, so if it’s an arcade football game with all the trimmings that you’re after, NFL Fever 2002 would be an excellent addition to your playbook.

    Has enough great looking textures to knit a quilt. You will be able to make out the grass, and even the line paint on the grass. The turf looks like turf, not just a brighter shade of grass.

    The gameplay and graphics are ready for the Super Bowl. But the sound and controls need to go back to training camp.

    Awesome game, fun, unique, can play w/ normal nfl teams or some fun made up ones(which are amazingly cool), also can make your own team, graphics are great and the playBOOK cannot be topped, good control of any offensive player during multiplayer, only a nine cuz create a player is sorta goofy w/ how you can only make them 82 or some thing like that. great game, better than madden 02, not 01, but definitely better than almost all other maddens until 02.… Expand

    Fun, but not as good as Madden. The AI is too easy on the "Rookie" level and too hard on the "Veteran" level to a fault--it makes you drop passes by the handful on the Veteran level, for example. The penalty calling is too simplistic as well--just how many offsides can be called during a game? And did the developers ever hear of "Holding"? Lastly, why are the Dynast games only limited to 5 minutes a quarter? Overall, fun-- incredibly graphics--but spend your money on Madden if you want to play as realistic a game that is out there.… Expand
