GTVGA Sports game of the year

[Dylflon]

Same ol' same ol'. New soccer games, new NHL games, new gootball games, more Tony Hawk and SSX. But they're all so great this year. It's too hard just to choose one!

[GameMaster]

Tony. Hawk. Underground.

So much to accomplish! Off-board missions! Riding ATVs at Kiss concerts!

[GameKinG]

None of those!

But if I must...

ESPN NFL Football (NFL2k4)

[BigJustinW]

Madden > ESPN NFL in every aspect besides graphics imo... but you already knew that. ;)

Madden is the first football game ever that I could sit and play for hours without even havng to play in an acctual game. Sega better rip off owner's mode before I can place it in Madden's leauge.

Actually

ESPN>Madden

Everything but franchise

:errr: sports games

[Dyne]

SSX3 was great. There's a ton to do. O_O

My friend, Ed Vanance, worked on this game. Give him the props! He played one level for months! I give him my regards for not going insane.

Let's see:

Graphics:
ESPN>Madden

Gameplay:
Arguable (Madden players hate ESPN, and Vice Versa)

Presentation/Sound/Music:
Madden>ESPN

Franchise:
Madden>ESPN

Gameplay modes:
Madden>ESPN

Online play:
Arguable (Ps2 Madden greater, but Madden online on Ps2 vs ESPN NFL on Xbox I'd say arguable leaning toward ESPN because Xbox live is just better ;))

All I know is you won't find ESPN NFL football on a top 25 (or less) games of the year lists, and you won't see it winning any awards... Not a bad football game, but it hasn't reached Madden's level yet.

[Perfect Stu]

SSX3 edges out Madden 04...it added more to the series than Madden did this year
