GameZone: Tecmo Bowl: Kickoff Review

Your experience with Tecmo Bowl: Kickoff will inevitably be a direct product of your expectations. Make no mistake, this game is a nostalgic piece in the vein of Capcom’s Mega Man 9. Innovation wasn’t a priority, but Tecmo has successfully refreshed the series for a modern platform.

If you’re expecting a reality-faithful, Madden-approved game of pigskin, look elsewhere. For players seeking fun, simple and addictive football gameplay, though, Tecmo Bowl is still the game’s unrivaled MVP. Hut, hut, hut…buy it!
