I don’t think I’ve ever seen an AI react that way on defense without the player controlling them. It’s crazy how these older gen football games have better AI than current gen Madden
@@TheUncleSpiderX no, its the NFLs fault for being lazy and wanting a monopoly. EA asked the NBA for a monopoly and the NBA rejected it, they want more people making NBA games.
I remember this game. This was the game that was at the old Wal-Mart displays whenever you play them demos. This game is on point but wishing it could complete with 2K and Madden
The trailer for NFL Fever 2002 that came included in the original Halo CE copy, is what got me knowing about the game in the first place. I played the 2003 demo that came in those demo disks and months ago I got 2002 for 2 bucks at a hobby store turned weed store.
There was a game mode where you would play historic teams in some type of tournament, me and my sister used to play on the same team and we could never get past the 1989 49ers….. the sideline catch animations in this game were ahead of its time too
NBA Inside Drive was one of my favorite Basketball Sims. When Microsoft Studios decided to make Sports titles they hired Devs from the Original 2K Franchises because they used to work for Sega and were unemployed
These graphics were FIRE in 2002 when this dropped. This game came out when I was in high school. The OG xbox was graphically superior to gamecube and ps2. NFL 2K3 was probably the best game that year though.
Not gon lie. I was drinking my juice and soon as that beat dropped. I stopped just when tray stopped talking. Hit the Harlem shake with the Millie rock real quick 💯💯🕺🏾🤷🏾♂️😂 0:40
0:08 this game nailed the passing. It felt so satisfying when your QB would drop the ball in the bucket withthis camera angke that follows the ball to the catch. Also if the DB makes a crazy good play to break up that catch, its just as nice. I used to love the diving catch feature. This game was awesome. I remember stealing it from my female cousin when we were like 7 thinking "shes a girl, she wont miss it if her FOOTBALL game goes missing"
This and NBA Inside Drive got countless hours. I'd go to pick my friend up for school and we'd play these until noon. I had some trancy issues for sure.
Bro was playing this game when I was in kindergarten and this brought back so much nostalgia because it was one of they very first games I truly got into and loved
I remember this game. My Xbox friends had it. I was blown away when I first saw them playing it. Fever was the first football game with towels if I'm not mistaken?
I remember buying NFL Fever 2002 and Halo the day Xbox was released. My friends and I played the hell outta Fever, but it was a really shallow football game that we grew tired of after a couple months. The graphics were absolutely jaw dropping back then tho.
NFL Fever was so much fun. I would get 2K, Madden & Fever. Then I'd play them in a rotation, depending on which game I was in the mood for. Defense was super satisfying when you user'd or baited QBs into a bad throw.
This was a fun game. It may not have been Madden or NFL 2K, but the fact there were so many licensed NFL games in the ecosystem just made everything fun. Everything until 2005 when EA ruined EVERYTHING. I will play ESPN NFL 2K5 and All Pro Football 2K8 until EA loses the license and other companies can make their own NFL games again.
@16:46 raunchy never played ball in his life lmao he got two pulling lineman and instead of following his guys he ran into the defense 😂 it’s a td or big play if he stay left
Fever was the real deal. I miss all the alternative choices to madden, ncaa, nba live, mlb, etc. All brought different pros/cons. Monopolies really dried things up.
Man this game was graphically insane in 03 and it still holds up pretty well in 2024
Compare it to N64 madden '02

Damn. Ed Reed did Peyton exactly like Belichik described. That's crazy.
Facts

On the same damn person too lmaoooo
thinking the exact same thing@@tarzangrant123
Just imagine where these games would be if they were able to keep the license. This was not bad at all
the way the towel moves for a 2003 game is crazy
Trust me we said that back then.
@@thegamingkitchen8429damn lol
Nah that Ed reed play was phenomenal 😂😂
When sports games had multiple companies and was competitive.
2K upset the NFL by selling 2k5 for $20 then Madden got the exclusive license
Facts and college it was a good time to be alive
Monopolies suck. Competition keeps you on your toes.

This is what made the ps2 n original Xbox a great era because sports had competition n that’s why madden n 2k was great because they had competition

Keep doing these classic gameplays!
Man fever was one of the best back in the day and the Pharrell soundtracks were perfect for that time. We need more fever vids Tray for real.

Ok…
This is one of the best football games ever! That dynasty mode on there is craaaaazy
I Still Have 04 & My Original Xbox 🙏🏾
I remember getting this game when it came out and was blown away with the graphics.
This game was UNBELIEVABLE back then! The response time was ahead of its time for sure, once you got used to the controls it was a wrap.
14:52 Lol it's bringing back memories. I remember QB draw always sucked in this game and the spin move was OP.
Tray stay unlocking childhood gaming memories
This was special in its time
This was a definition of fight to the finish and yall couldn’t😭🤦🏾♂️funny ass vid and nice ass game

Bro I had the OG XSN SPORTS GAMES they were ahead of they time bro .. and on 03’ had Pharrell beats in the menu same with NfL fever 02!!
Damn this was my game man.. fever was the game that made me want an og xbox.. graphics were head and shoulders over everything else at the time
I swear I fell in love with this game the first time I ever played it
Yeah 0:47 that song used to hit !
Clipse classic

Bro was playing this game when I was in kindergarten and this brought back so much nostalgia because it was one of they very first games I truly got into and loved
The spin move was the way to break all tackles no matter what direction
This was actually pretty entertaining
I absolutely loved this game!!! I played the Hell out of it. May have to dig this one out for the nostalgia.
First game i ever got when i got my Xbox it was simple and fun times
CLASSIC!!!! GAME THATS NEVER MENTIONED
I was hooked on this as a child
This takes me way back, I remember playing it in circuit city, this was the best child hood in my opinion
12:40 lol Peyton mustve forgot to text Jeff Saturday "Happy Birthday" or something 😂
Madden could take some notes and use the camera when you throw the football down the field
I was in love with this game. Damn where did the time go??!!
I forgot how the camera veers off after each tackle like the person died lol
Mane tray I rock with you dawg been watching since them 2k20 pc vids much love bro 💪🏽 ❤
One of the most underrated NFL games ever released 🔥🔥
I had this game THIS GAME WAS GOATED FOR REAL
12:44 bruh Saturday really sold Peyton out there🤣
I'm 59 years old and bro you taking me back to win video games first exploded and you had 10 football games a year to play!! Good shyte!
Yessss, thank you Tray! I was wondering if you was going to play this

I remember this game bruh had it on the xbox back in the day!!! Neptunes was on the intro
football games were more fun when had a variety of football games to play
NFL Fever was so much fun. I would get 2K, Madden & Fever. Then I'd play them in a rotation, depending on which game I was in the mood for.
Defense was super satisfying when you user'd or baited QBs into a bad throw.
I remember being mind blown playing the demo at the store. I was a Playstation guy at the time, PC now.
As an Xbox kid this game was my shit fr
Nfl Fever and NFL 2k4🔥🔥🔥🔥 good times as a kid
I really had to take a drink when he bounced it off the cross bar 😂😂😂😂
Fever was dope back in the day
As a Bears fan that kick hit different

I loved this and 2002 🔥🔥🔥
What camera do you use for recording?
I remember having this game and the clipes being the soundtrack for the game.
I’ll never forget seein the buff ass Peyton Manning on one of the covers
Bro, it’s 2:45am here and I woke up my wife laughing my ass off after you hit the crossbar on that field goal. 😂
There was one play I used to spam all the time that scored everytime guaranteed. The memories
I loved the run of these games... I was a die hard Fever mark...
Fever Was Goated Wish They Kept It Rolling RIP😢
This game was very underrated when it was out.
Crazy throwback
Hit me with the nba live nostalgia at the beginning haha
Bro I swear my grandma bought me this game at GameStop and I played this mf day and night. Dope vid . Thanks for the memories. Earned a new sub fs 👍🏼
This game was so good!
@16:46 raunchy never played ball in his life lmao he got two pulling lineman and instead of following his guys he ran into the defense 😂 it’s a td or big play if he stay left
The snow looks no different than madden 24 lol
15:59 “He ran over Payton Manning! You piece of sh!t!!”
-8 year old me watching my favorite QB
This one of the first games on Xbox I got. Damn I miss this shit
Me 2 bra
This game taught me how to play football when I was a kid.
Fever was the real deal. I miss all the alternative choices to madden, ncaa, nba live, mlb, etc. All brought different pros/cons. Monopolies really dried things up.
Tray I need that ending song fam 🔥🔥
Best passing system/controls of all time. Gotta do advanced passing. Fingers crossed insignia supports this game sooner than later
On this game the weather affected the kicker. In a dome and with a good kicker the arrow was slower. I hated how the players tripped all the time.
With the nerd/neptunes soundtrack 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
You should do a comparison video between this and Madden from the same year
I still remember there was a blitz play in the first one, i guess 2002, where if you were the MLB, you could get a sack practice every play lol
*Practically
The passing mechanics were legit and way ahead of it's time!
Matt Stöver kicking like Ray Finkle on Diazepam
I miss having more than one football game on the market to choose from...
this game was actually pretty solid.
The game looking dope & be similar to NBA Live '02
I miss when NFL games came with options. I would buy them all.
This game holds up for 2024, makes you wonder how they can’t make a good madden game anymore
Game was raw asf!
Y'all should play the one college football game that came out on Dreamcast. Had Drew Brees on the cover.
This was my childhood
YO the tackling sounds are tiger growling bruh 😂🤣
That game is still better than any current Madden.
When attributes actually mattered
Looks better than madden 24. I miss the way they use to run in these games. Way better than today
I remember this game. It was wild fun😂.
