Love it. But NOT Tecmo Super Bowl!
User Rating: 8 | Tecmo Bowl Throwback X360
First off, I've been telling people for FOREVER Tecmo Super Bowl is the BEST football game ever to this and is easily my favorite game of all-time. That said this is an interpretation not Tecmo Super Bowl. The things that did change aren't for the bad, necessarily. It will take getting use to. For example, if your QB sucks, he's gonna SUCK. Every pass will be a lob pass and most likely incomplete. They did that in the original but this is 100% of the time. No luck throws in to triple coverage for "Jim Everett." Like it happened every so often in the real deal. The other thing is the delay from hiking the ball to when its actually snapped, thats a pain.
There are a few other things as well, most notably NO CHANGING PLAYBOOKS ONLINE!!! WTF???? I've been playing the game since it uploaded a few hours ago and I have yet to find a change playbook option in multiplayer.
The defensive dive tackle is off too, I cant quite put my finger on it but its just not the same.
Overall I love the game I will purchase it on PS3 as well when it comes out for that. BUT KNOW, although this is NOT Tecmo Super Bowl. It is a very VERY good substitute.
