The player models are much more realistic, players show emotion, and pretty much everything has been given a facelift. The animation, framerate, textures - its all very impressive.

Game InformerI was surprised this game felt as different from 2K1 and CD's 2K2 as it did. [Jan 2002, p.80]
-
NFL 2K2 scores a bullseye with a blazing framerate, a caffeinated pace and the dynamite control scheme NFL 2K games are famous for.
-
The running back strength is excessive, and some of the secondary play is suspect. If these parameters were addressed, I'd probably switch allegiance yet one more time since the overall graphical and audio presentation of NFL 2K2 is the best around, and the tighter control makes for a fun play.
-
The controls are tight, and the gameplay is on-target even if theres a slightly frenetic, arcade, unMadden-like feel to player movement.
-
If youd rather play a fast and offensive football game over a slower more realistic one, NFL2K2 is for you. Its the fastest and easiest to play of the big two. If not for the sloppy AI, it might actually be better than Madden.
-
It really does not matter what difficult level you are playing on, because regardless you will find that you throw far too many interceptions and intercept too many yourself. I played several games where the total number of interceptions in the game was 10!
