2 out of 5 stars Do you want to feel the pain?   January 15, 2008
Edgar Allan Pooh (Chesapeake, Va)
If you do, buy this game. I have not played in any other mode besides campaign mode; however, in campaign mode the computer has super-human powers. Someone could have a monster lead in this game and the computer would find a way to come back in the fourth quarter. For example, several times I've had good-sized leads against the computer and several times the computer has ended up winning because something unrealistic will happen, like you will fumble the ball on every possesion or the ball will get tipped and the defense will intercept it--on every possesion towards the end of the game. The only reason I rated the game better than I rated the fun of the game is because the graphics of the game are good. In addition, I think that clash mode is a terrible idea. It works more to the computers benefit than it does yours. Yes, you can execute dirty hits but it's much harder for you to perform them than it is for the computer to execute them. In other words, prepare to fumble the ball alot and have alot of injuries because the computer is going to hit you more than you're going to hit it's players. I purchased this game because I thought it would be a updated version of the old arcade stlye blitz--which I really liked as a kid. If you're expecting that prepared to be disappointed.


3 out of 5 stars fun for a time   July 31, 2007

well i bought this game shortly after it came out and for the first few months i loved it the dirty hits the injuries i thought it was all great the load times were horribly long and after working to beat the story line for a bit it was a huge let down once i beat the game i hoped it would go on to maybe another division since they kept saying that the league was three tier all logic told me you would go through all tiers ...nope all in all its a fun game to play with others and its fun to play every now and then still even though ive had it a while but after the first couple of months i found myself really wanting to play something more realistic with some rules


3 out of 5 stars Good, but needs second edition   February 28, 2007

I loved the game but when there was no second making (next season) I immediately sold it off. No need to own a game that when you see something cool, it will never be there again.


4 out of 5 stars cool but can be stupid at times   February 10, 2007

ok, this game is fun, especially the dirty hits to break some bones, ok cons are: well the load times are outrageously long and the magicall powers the computer can magically dish out are not that great either you can use clash and the computer some how magically flys over the whole feild and tackles you into a fumble. other times you can land thousands of dirty hits on one guy with thousands of different men all in the same play and he magically still has the energy to evade EVERY SINGLE TACKLE/ DIRTY HIT YOU DO! Still a very fun game offense is incredibly easy but not nearly as fun as defense yes theres cussing but its rated m whatd u expect but as i said earlier about the computer being able to evade everything and still have a ton of energy u can use clash and stiff arm the guy and make him fall but he somehow never hits the ground no matter how hard the stiff arm the guy and he gets right back up and breaks your guys neck. all in all this is a fun game and id recomend it to anyone who arent fans of "realistic" football.

This game is really good, but i don't think they tested it enough to figure out that the loading times are way too long. So if you do not have a lot of patience, good luck with this game :)
