The game was launched in September 2003 and it is classed as being a sports simulation which is played from a third-person perspective making use of an official license which allows all the players to have the likeness and names of their real life counterparts.
ESPN NFL Football includes a variety of game modes like: Quick game, Franchise, Season, Tournament, Practice, First-Person Football and Online Play.
The Franchise mode is the most complex of the bunch, allowing gamers to control one team for more than one season, including the crucial draft, off season player deal, recruitment and release of players, with all the rules of the NFL in full effect.
One of the most intriguing modes is First Person Football, which allows the player to experience a virtual playing field that is as close as possible to reality.
One new feature introduced by the game is The Crib, which is a virtual area where the player can see all the games he has won and all the Achievements that he has completed.
As the gamer performs certain tasks, from scoring a kick from 99 yards or playing for more than 5 hours straight, he gets more content for The Crib.
There are cheats and bobble heads of famous NFL players that can be unlocked for the virtual area and players can also access soundtracks from famous SEGA titles.
While the title of this game boasts the ESPN license, this is actually the next game in Sega's NFL 2K series.
The collaboration with ESPN means that all the video games have the visual style of the sports oriented channel, with Chris Berman delivering commentary during the games.
