Madden NFL 2001

The computer version had great graphics, gameplay, and moderate sound. The game boy color version has poor gameplay, moderate sound, and moderate if not poor graphics.

The players are a bunch of little square like images with little bumps for helmets. The controls are ok, but still this game could have had so much more depth. EA Sports spent too much time on plays and not enough time on everything else. The phisics in this game are strange, and you cant always tell where the ball is going. The player and teams don't matter much, as you can score and do pretty much everything with any player.

The sound is moderate, but it is not played during the game. The opening screen and other places where the sound is played are also designed well, unlike the actual game. The tune can be a little catchy, and the sound effects arent bad. Still, the sound doesnt add up to much.

The game is not very well built at all. It is very boring to play a whole season, because you cant really save in the middle of a game. The games, even when set to 5 minute quarters, last over an hour. The gameplay is exactly the same each time, with you being either blown out or winning by over 50. It can be really boring to play a 16 game season plus playoffs when each game is the same. The game play is so boring, i couldnt get past the first game.

The password part is also horrible. Why should you have to type up a 15 letter password to enter your game when other games yet you go in for free? It takes forever to write it down, remeber where you put it, and enter it in. I dont see why they cant let you save in the middle in the game. If they did that i would love the game.

I do not recommend this game because I think your're better off buying Madden 2000! This game has bad graphics and there is no gameplay.


this game ...!   January 26, 2001
this is one of the worst games i have purchased. the players look like little dots. when playing the defense you cannot tackle very well if at all. there are almost no interceptions or fumbles. n offense almost every pass is a completion. you can pretty much run all over the computer and last but not least why even have a kicking game. to sum it up there has to be a better game with some kind of compettion, i mean i like an offensive game as much as the next person but this is rediciouls.
