Practice

In the NFL, practice is key.  The practice field is the place to tighten pass routes, fine tune the running 
game, and learn about defensive positioning and techniques.  You can customize your practice session 
with three Practice Types:
Special Move Practice– Get a feel for the controller and how to perform special moves
Full Scrimmage – Line up against another team 
Offense Only – Work out the kinks in your offense without a defense to stop you

Tourney

Choose to play in a New tournament with 4, 8, or 16 teams, or Load and continue a previously saved 
tournament.  Select your teams, determine human or CPU control for each, and begin play.

Tournament Menu

The Tournament Options Menu is where you can choose to begin the Tournament, as well as view your Schedule,
the Tournament Tree and Game Stats.  

Playoffs

Select your team and compete in a hunt for the ultimate ring - from Wild Card to Super Bowl.  
If you have what it takes, that is.

CUSTOMIZE

NFL 2K offers unprecedented power to customize the game to your own personal desires.  You can design your
own plays, players, and teams.  Keep tally of your personal in-game records.  Even review the records of other
human players:
