With a simple interface, great music, and solid action this is a great game and at five bucks probably one of the best values on VC!!

My brother and I used to play this for hours back wen we were kids, and while it no longer holds the NFL license and only has a handful of teams the games characters are still based on their real life counterparts of 1989. So if you missed the days of Joe Montana, Jerry Rice, and Thurman Thomas. Here is your chance to relive them.

The Interace and controls are simple enough that anyone can pick it up and play. I even got my girlfriend interested for two or three games, and thats quite an accomplishment. The biggest shame is my older brother lives two hours away so I will have to pack up my Wii and go road tripping to get revenge on all those beating I took when I was a kid.
