Review Quote:
"Players don't resemble their real life counter-parts at all. The arenas you play in all look alike and vary almost only by color. I suppose the same could be said for the players if you think about it. The animations are fluid, but I can tell you something else that's fluid after I eat at Taco Bell. Both are as enjoyable to look at. And both can be described with the same four letter word."
Highlights:
- Why did EA do this to football fans?
- No discount makes this game worth money
- I'd rather play 1985's Tecmo Bowl
- If you "need" exaggerated football, pick up last year's Street
Final Score: 2.5 out of 10

GameInformer writes: "Let me start this off with a message to the Miami Dolphins: Believe it or not, you're not the only team that's toiled in futility and totally embarrassed yourselves on the football field this year. I thought that in retooling the NFL Street series into NFL Tour EA would actually be improving the franchise and learning from its past mistakes in the sub-genre. Unfortunately, I was mistaken, as NFL Tour represents a total regression – one that the company says is aimed at young kids and football novices who don't play Madden. Even if I take this at face value, it's clear that this game is a failure no matter how you try and qualify it."
Why would EA do this to football fans? Because football fans have no other choice?
NFL Tour is a Xbox 360 **AND** PS3 title.
Perhaps the editor would like to spread this shiat over all the consoles that it belongs?
But, alas, this is the Sony Defence Force N4G -- every opportunity to pretend PS3 isn't a great failure...

Approve. Approve. Approve. Apporve!!!1!
Wait, so you're accusing ps3 owners of making multiplatform games look exclusive? I need to make sure that's what you're saying before I comment.
