NFL 2K3, for the XBox gaming console shows some great gameplay and commentary, which makes this game good for a rental or buy. The on- going struggle between the Madden franchise and the Sega Sports franchise has been going on for years, and all of us know, that each year it has been kneck and kneck. This year, it seems that Madden NFL 2003 edged NFL 2K3... barely. The main blow for NFL 2K3 is the fact that all of the characters on the game look as if they went on the Subway diet, instead of the bulky, 250lb. athletes they really are. ESPN lends a hand on commentary and technical support, which makes you feel a little more in the game. A good buy either way, but Madden seems to be the better value this year.
