No, it doesn't. This year it is on-par with the platform versions.
platform == console?
technically, no, but all these stupid idiots out there think so because they're all console and no PC.
Platform == pc / console
Otherwise, you'd be asking what consoles the game is available for, not what platforms.
sorry, this stupid idiot who plays mostly PC games typed the wrong word. i meant console, platform came out. i've been awake since 9pm yesterday, sue me.
anyway, here's a snippet from IGN
"According to Tiburon's executive producer Steven Chiang, "There are two big focuses with 2003. First, the whole game experience will be exactly like the consoles... The second big push is online play."
Unlike last year's PC outing, which was essentially the unperfected and sometimes broken code base of the PS2's 2001 game, only with an underused online franchise mode, this year's is a straight port from the console -- a concurrently developed product that is identical to its cousins as far as gameplay and nuance go. All versions of Madden are now "in synch," as Steven described it. That is to say, all versions play the same, feel the same, sound the same, and react the same."
ANd whoever at Best Blow told the original poster it isn't out til next week is full of it. I'll post a review of the game tomorrow when I get it.
