Madden 2004 or ESPN football?

[brassmonkey]

I am trying to figure out which game to get for ps2. Madden 2004 or ESPN football. Both have gotten killer reviews. Apparently ESPN has got better graphics, but Madden is a little more realistic. I also heard that one of them has a feature that lets you build your own stadium. Who knows which one it is? I would love to hear your thoughts on which is better. I was just hoping you guys could save me the pain of having to rent both of them

Madden is the best sports game in the world, and it is the game in which you can make your own stadium (and so much more). There is an almost player-manager option in the "franchise mode"... it is tops.

Madden is by far the better game.
