NCAA March Madness 2004 (Sony PlayStation 2, 2003)

Product Specs

Description

NCAA March Madness returns for a third season on PlayStation 2, offering players a chance to create and sustain a dynasty spanning 30 years. As general manager and coach, players can recruit high school athletes, conduct training sessions in the off season, customize non-conference schedules, and participate in the EA SPORTS Roundball Classic. The distinctive atmosphere of college hoops has been captured with cheerleaders, bands, mascots, team-specific crowd chants, and new post-game celebrations and fight songs. Online play is a PlayStation 2 exclusive, supporting head-to-head matchups, tournaments, downloadable content, and other features. As in the NCAA Football series, players can now pit team mascots against each another or relive famous school rivalries such as Duke versus UNC. The freestyle control introduced in March Madness 2003 is back, with players able to use the right analog stick for special moves such as crossover dribbles, strip steals, and more. Yet the most noteworthy addition to the series is the inclusion of every Division I team in America -- a total of more than 300 schools. Wrapping up the list of features are Dick Vitale's play-by-play announcing, scouting reports and tips from real-life coaches, and the ability to call team-specific strategies on both offense and defense.
