"Our fans have been asking us to find ways they can get even more involved in the game," said Greg Thomas, president, Visual Concepts Entertainment, maker of the acclaimed "2K" sports game series. "We've put considerable resources behind this revolutionary feature and created a game mode that allows you to become any player on the field and experience the game just as they do every time they hit the field."

"This is a truly exciting new feature for sports fans, and we're excited to bring it to them and to the gaming community," said Rick Alessandri, senior vice president and general manager, ESPN Enterprises. "ESPN has always been about serving the fans, and these games will really make them part of the action."

With strikingly realistic audio and visual components, the most minute of details have been included in First Person Football. Depending on which position gamers select to control for each play, the audio and visual experience will change. As the quarterback, players can hear the ominous footsteps of defensive linesman closing in, their pounding heartbeat or the thud of their body hitting the grass after a tough tackle.

The accurate viewpoint of every player on the field has been captured, from kicker to fullback, allowing gamers to alternate players for every play giving them a truly immersive gridiron experience.

"ESPN NFL Football" will be available at retailers nationwide this fall and will be available for the PlayStation 2 and the Xbox.
