With gameplay as exciting as a sports highlight reel, NFL Blitz 20-03 is the only dedicated adrenaline-style football videogame franchise and is officially licensed by the NFL and Players INC. NFL Blitz 20-03 also features an all-new Create-a-Player mode, which allows gamers to build their alter ego into the game.

Showcasing intense 8-on-8 gameplay coupled with NFL strategy, NFL Blitz 20-03 allows gamers to execute the skills needed for the "big game," with aggressive over-the-top moves such as bulldozing, stiff-arming and outrageous dives.

"NFL Blitz 20-03 is the perfect blend of real teams and players involved in adrenaline-style action that delivers to both action fans and sports lovers the most intense and entertaining football videogame experience available," said Helene Sheeler, vice president of marketing, Midway.

Midway signed an exclusive deal with New York Giants star defensive end Michael Strahan to appear on the package cover and in advertising materials. To add more realistic attributes to the action-packed gameplay, this three-time NFL Pro Bowler also designed plays and provided audio capture for the game. NFL Blitz 20-03's DVD content also features an exclusive behind-the-scenes look at the NFL Pro Bowl in Honolulu, Hawaii, where other top pro players designed plays and performed audio capture for the game.
