Recommended Posts

What do people consider the best sports gmaes on the Xbox? Best football, soccer, hockey, baseball, ect.

 

Looking to pick up a couple of used sports games and trying I'm to find out what's good. I'm not the type that's looking for pure sim as much as I am fun gameplay.

 

I already have NFL 3K3 and am considering ESPN 2004 so I'm good on football titles.

 

Thanks.

Football - Madden

Hockey- ESPN Hockey/ NHL 2k3

Baseball - World Series

Soccer - Fifa 2003/2004, what ever happened to ISS?

Basketball - NBA Live 2003, though Sega's is as good if not better.

 

While many people like Sega and their football game, I depise it, when you can leap ten yards with a 300 pb lineman, that just blows the game right there for me. It ain't half as bad as I make it out to be though :).

How's NHL Hitz 2002?

 

The Hitz games are fun, but their pure arcade through and through. This year's crop are aiming to be a little more realistic, but we'll have to see how they do.

 

For Hockey though, Sega's games are tops with ease. The gameplay is head and shoulders above the crap that EA offered last year (this year MAY be better) and they're supposed to have EA beat in the graphics and presentation this year too. Plus... online play!

 

Soccer offerings are a little thin on XBox until Konami decides we deserve Pro Evolution/Winning Eleven. I haven't played Fifa 03 since the last 4 years were not much to my liking, but I've heard it made a big step last year (they always do when faced with a little competition).

They actually patched this on XBL and everything I've seen this year doesn't seem to have it. I've played the crap out of madden over the last 3 weeks, 55 games and 3 days 4 hrs according to the depressing EA sports bio :). Can't wait until tomorrow though so I can pick up ESPN 2k4.
