NFL 2K3 or Madden 2003?

[PureEvil]

I need me a football game, and it's either going to be NFL 2K3 or Madden 2003.

I've read the reviews and all that yadda yadda, but I'm still somewhat undecided. And it's not like one game completely destroyed the other in any ratings or anything, so I'm wondering what people who've actually played them figure.

Anyone have any recommendations?

I gave both games a fair chance this year and chose Madden...

They're both very good games...but in the end I preferred the feel and controls and DEPTH of Madden over 2K3. You really can't go wrong with either title...both are quite accurate in portraying NFL football.

Go NFL 2K3 :) Well, I never have liked Madden. But on the head-to-head things, they seemed to choose NFL 2K3.

Maybe I'm too late... but I think that you should stick to whatever you have been liking for the last few years.Both games are good on the field... but Madden (as well as NBA Live) murders the competition with it's presentation. ESPN Music vs Madden Music... I chose Madden :p
