Awesome!!!!
I really enjoyed this game. The graphics are awesome. I would highly recommend this game to others.
Good Game
I've been a 2K fan for a while now (I still play NFL 2K5) but this is a great game. I'm glad they released it for the original Xbox, its nice to be able to get a new game for my old system.
Thank You Electronic Arts for making my Christmas Special...
1st I want to thank Electronic Arts for not forgetting the XBox player; you did a fine job in getting this game out. I just hope you never forget us with coming editions. The game play for this game is great, I love the new features. This game has not disappointed me and I play daily. Keep us in your future decisions and we will not be afraid to buy.
Parents BEWARE - this is for the original XBox, not the XBox360!
Stupid me.... I bought my son an XBox 360 for Christmas and just discovered this game is for the original XBox - hence, the price. This might seem obvious to all the gamers out there, but for those of us who don't have a clue about these games and only supply the credit card to purchase items as gifts, beware! They really should publish a "Buying Video Games for Dummies (aka Moms)" for all of us out there trying to buy gifts for gamers.
