Almost, But Not Quite
User Rating: 5.3 | Blitz: The League X360
Midway messed up with this game. When I first heard that Blitz was coming to the 360 I was very excited, only to be let down. This game has the potential of being a great game had they just tweaked a few things. First off the graphics are an embarassment to all Xbox 360 games. It looks exactly like it does on the original xbox. Often times during cut scenes you'll see your players running through one another and sometimes they'll even disappear completely. The crowd in the background is horrible. I can't even explain how bad the crowd looks. Secondly, the gameplay is fun for the most part, but you'll find it to get repetitive after 10 games or so. Also, while playing you are constantly interrupted by anoying cut scenes of players talking smack to each other and there is no option to turn them off, sure you can just press B, but that really begins to get irritating after having to do it 10 times in a single game. Thirdly, the sound just outright sucks. The crowd response is no good at all, the soundtrack for this game simply is not good, the tackles sound incredibly fake, and the voices suck too. However there are some good points to this game. The multiplayer isn't so bad, but often times lags. The addition of the new campaign is ok, but the storyline is weak. Over all this game is a rent at the most, so don't waste your money like i did and buy it.
