the official adapter doesn't come out until the 27th, but you can play online right now with a regular usb-ethernet adapter.

Sweet! 😎
 
I've played Tony Hawk 3 online with my PS2. I have Madden 2002 and doubt it supports the online deal. I'll have to buy the new one.
 
This is a pretty poorly organized attempt at forming a football league. The minute you get serious, I suggest you do what people at other forums are doing.

1)Decide on a platform
2)Design a simple website with:
*Info on team assignments
*Info on platforms; how-to connect
*Schedules/match-ups

In another league I've joined, we've got about 25 people signed up (so far) in our Xbox Live! league using NFL 2K3. That won't start until mid-Nov. when Xbox Live! is launched.

Nevermind the thread crapper 😀
Obviously he didn't read because we did decide on a platform in post #1 and we are looking for somebody with web skills.
 
hey guys, for all you wondering how to get online right now, this is the setup i followed (note that i just copied this out of a faq from gamefaqs).

============
Requirements
============
- Linksis 10/100TX USB Ethernet Adapter
- cable modem
- ethernet cable
- USB cable
- Sony PS2 Memory Card (400KB Free)
- Sony PS2 System
- Sony PS2 Madden NFL 2003 Game
- Recommended: USB Keyboard for PS2


=============
Setting It Up
=============
+-------+ +--------+ +--------+
| Cable +--ethernet--+Ethernet| USB | Sony |
| Modem | cable |Adaptor +--cable---+ PS2 |
+-------+ +--------+ +--------+


==========
What To Do
==========
- Turn on Madden NFL 2003
- Select Features, Online
- Create a new account
- Load, dark blue screen appears
- Add new settings
- Proceed until it asks to select hardware
- Select the Linksis 10/100TX USB Ethernet Adapter
- Proceed until it asks for a password
- If you need one to connect, select 'yes'--chances are you can just press 'no'
- Your next two choices need to be 'auto'
- It's all set up, so quit
- Now go online, through Features, Online
- Make a profile, register it online
- PLAY SOME FOOTBALL

i don't know if other usb-ethernet adapters work, im using the linksys 10/100tx myself. there's a lot of info on the madden board at gamefaqs, located here so hopefully i'll see some of you guys online soon. 😉
 
I would volunteer to do the website if I can join with 2002. If that's not possible you could always donate me a 2003.
 
To make it even more fun and competetive, I will be adding prizes to the prize pool to be awarded to the winner throughout the season.
The first prize into the pool is a PS2 game - SSX!!!
Anybody else in??
 
I would help you guys setup a website, I don't play Madden too much but helping out some fellow anandys would be of no probs 😀
 
First off. NFL 2k3 on XboX is the bomb!!
It looks better, plays better, got better reviews and it is Broadband only. No Lag.
and when XboX LivE starts, the N Y JetS are taking over!!!

BTW
Whats "Playstation 2"?
Isn't that some weird rock group from Japan?
lol

peace

Well, since this thread got moved we've had little to no activity. Looks like the mods killed this league 🙁

Go and plead your case in forum issues, or pm the mods!!!!
 
bump

I would love to play with you guys if you got started, but I've just rented it tonight, and won't be able to buy it for a couple of weeks. If anything happens with this, let us know!
