The third edition in the Dreamcast's premier pro football line comes to the Microsoft Xbox with this release of NFL 2K2. As in earlier versions of the game, this Xbox release in the series is fully licensed and all the NFL teams, uniforms, rosters, and stadiums are accurate to the most recent (2000-2001) season. Other distinguishing features include a more realistic defense and running game, a unique timed passing system, and "true-to-life quarterback logic" designed to let the virtual QBs act and react to game situations like their real-life counterparts. The commentary has been updated as well and NFL 2K2 contains more lines of dialogue than any other contemporary professional football simulation.
