Madden NFL 2002 Online Strategy Guide
The summer is grueling. With nothing but baseball for months, I am a mess. I'm reduced to watching old Super Bowls on tape, meditating about the coming season and visiting empty stadiums just to wander around and imagine. By late August I am begging for Madden. Luckily, each and every year, EA Sports delivers an electrifying product, and I'm appeased. Madden is my brother. Madden is my mother. Madden is my secret lover.

This year's offering, aptly named "Madden 2002," does not disappoint. The AI is much improved, defensive back play is better, and catch animations are much more subtle. They've added new modes as well, including the addictive Two-Minute Drill and Situation mode.

In addition, after the 2001 season, they've given you the option to conduct an expansion draft and bring the Houston Texans in the league. Or, you can create a team of your own and bring it in. The Franchise mode has been expanded.

Madden has provided almost everything you could hope for in a football videogame. All that's missing is your huge salary.

Now IGN Guides brings you the complete guide to the GameCube's best sports game. With descriptions of every game mode, control details, and a full list of Madden Cards, this is the most comprehensive online resource for Madden 2002 knowledge. We've included rundowns of each team, their strengths and weaknesses, their key players and the plays that always work.

The latest guides for the hottest games are available for IGN Insider subscribers. If you're not an Insider, you'll still want to check out IGN Guides, as we feature plenty of free and sponsored guides as well.
