NHL is easy to get into, Madden is not. You won't stand a chance in Madden unless you already know - or take time to learn - the rules of American Football.
Believe me - I absolutely detested American Football before I got Madden. But a friend persuaded me to try it, and now I've picked up the rules (both from my friend and various websites), I can't leave it alone.
It's a tough call, but I'd go for SSX and Timesplitters.
(TTT is still worth getting though.....)
If you like football games then get ISS.
Enjoy!
SSX has become my favorite game of all time.
Tekken Tag is also good, but not up to the standards of the other two.
My top five:
1) SSX
2) TimeSplitters
3) Tekken Tag
4) Kessen
5) Dead or Alive 2
I think that RTRRT, RRV and Fifa 2001 are also good, but my top five stand.
