PS2 Review SUMMARY and SCORE
Will Anderson  "This Is A Very Fun Game To Play By Yourself, But Its Much Better To Have Some Friendly Competition. The Sound Is Great And The Gameplay Is Great. My Only Complaints Are That The Graphics Make The Players Look Completely Unlike The Real Players At Times And That Includes The Coaches. I Know That The Ncaa Has Restrictions On Using The Likeness Of A Player Or Coach, But Having An African-american Coach Appear As A Caucasion Is A Little Ridiuclous And Vice Versa. One More Complaint Is That They Do Not Have The Season Mode Which Would Have Been Very Enjoyable. I Know That They Can't Include Every Team On A School's Schedule Because Many Of Those Teams Aren't In The Game, But They Should Allow You To Play Your Schedule To The Extent The Teams Are Included In The Game. Besides Those Little Nuances, This Made For A Great Game And Its Lastability Is Way Up There."

PS2 Review SUMMARY and SCORE
Graham Hewitt  "This Game Has Excellent Game Play And Is Easily One Of The Best And Most Realistic Basketball Video Games I Have Played, Plus It Is Also The College Version.my Only Complaint About This Game Is That It Is Missing Some Of The Qualities That Made Ncaa Football 2002 So Good.i Thought This Game Was Going To Have Some Of The Options That Were Included In The Football Game, Such As The Dynasty Mode And Being Able To Recruit Players And Be The Coach At The School.if This Game Had Had These Features Plus The Game Play Which It Has Now It Would Easily Be One Of The Best Sports Games Ever.maybe If They Couldnt Fit These Options In Due To A Lack Of Space, Maybe They Could Consider Getting Rid Of Some Of The Teams In The Game, Because Personally I Dont Really Care About The Teams That Are Ranke 100 And Beyond."

GRAPHICS:
Very Poor - an embarrassment to the console
Nothing spectacular, but still functional
Quality visuals that clearly show the power of this machine
Graphical masterpiece that is amongst the best currently available
Pushing the visual capability to it's absolute limit
This game has graphics that were never thought possible on this console

Makes little use of the CD capacity and audio hardware
Functional sounds that compliment the on-screen action
Quality atmospheric sounds that are highly effective
Music and effects that greatly enhance the overall enjoyment
Sounds like this were never thought possible on this console

PLAY-ABILITY (The way the game actually plays)
No fun to play, control is bad, gameplay lacks ideas
Offers moderate enjoyment but lacks a reason to play regularly
Quality title that has all the features you would expect
Top-notch title with nearly flawless gameplay
Little room for improvement and the best game of its type
Introduces new gameplay aspects not thought possible for this console

LAST-ABILITY
Wouldn't even buy for your worst enemy
Life-span would be a short rental period
Recommended purchase which should offer a weeks enjoyment
Has the potential to still be played regularly weeks from now
This will remain a popular game in your collection for months
You will enjoy playing this game occasionally even years from now
