It also had legitimately amazing music.

Joe Montana football on the Sega Cd was so bad. I cant believe how exited I was for it before it came out.

Aside from the Tecmo Bowls, this was probably my most played NES football game:

Shit, I think I remember that. Was that the one with substitutions and player fatigue/energy levels? That kind of detail blew my mind.

Besides Tecmo Bowl, This game was and still one of my favorites...

Yep. Full rosters, 11 on 11 gameplay, 4 player support if you had the right peripheral. Only 8 teams though. It was still impressive for the time.

Super Play Action Football had high school, college, and NFL teams if I remember right.

I had a board when I was younger but I never had anyone to explain how it works.

Didn't help that I didn't really know what the rules of football were back then too.

As shitty as I think this gen's football games have been (basically the same shit we played last gen with upgraded visuals, though even they were not to the level we were promised) seeing the crap we played in the n64 and 16bit days shows how far we have come with sports games.

snesfreak · (06-01-2012, 07:01 PM)

I probably rented just about every SNES football game, just to play as the Bucs.
I usually won about as many games as they did back then.

What's everyone's opinion on flag football? Is it fun? Is it generally seen as a sorry substitute played by pussies?

It's fun. Good luck finding 20+ guys older than 25 willing to play tackle football.

snesfreak · (06-01-2012, 07:51 PM)

I'd probably break something if I tried to play tackle football now.

Truth spoken here. Me and a few buddies decided to play some tackle football a few years ago (age 25/26 at the time). The game ended some dislocated shoulders, charlie horses, and sprained ankles.

chuckddd · (06-01-2012, 08:21 PM)

I know it's PFT, but is it too late to get Fuhrer Goodell to give Breesy a 75 game suspension?

Quote:

1. Despite being a member of the Browns, Fujita was present in the room for the Gregg Williams diatribe. The video that goes with the audio shows Fujita sitting next to Gleason, smiling when players chanted “give it back!” upon receiving envelopes of cash from the prior weekend’s win over the Lions.
...
11. Fujita told Pamphilon that Brees agrees the audio should be released the “sooner the better.” Fujita continued to offer words of support and encouragement.

12. On the evening of April 3, Brees called Pamphilon. Instead of saying “the sooner the better,” Brees says we need to “wait for the right time” to release the audio. Pamphilon says it’s too late to stop the process.

13. The next day, Brees left Pamphilon a voice message, asking for a copy of the essay Pamphilon planned to post on his website when the audio was released. Pamphilon ultimately refused, and Gleason then told Pamphilon that what he planned to do is “illegal” and that Gleason wa not giving permission for the audio to be released.

The guys in the NO SPOILERZ thread were throwing around a $7M number as the cost of the explosion. I don't really see it, but supposedly that's where the money went.

What? It looked like someone set off one of those smoke snakes in a bathtub. They couldn't even get the fire to be consistently green! Pathetic.

You know that wasn't a real battle from history right? Game of Thrones is fictional levious. I am sorry to break it to you.

the were shooting regular fire arrows from the walls of the city, I've also double checked the historical texts.
