I was obviously exaggerating, but sorry, no matter how you try to articulate it, "tackling" in gridiron amounts to not much more than clattering into ppl.
It really doesn't matter how long they spend working at it...they're may well be a "fine art" to crashing into someone at full speed...I'm sure WWE guys train for hours too, but they're still just pretend-fighting.

There is a clear difference betwen actually making your own decisions in sport & remembering a choreographed routine......LMAO at you using the term "mental" so ambiguously.....& jesus christ, using you brain is NOT in & of itself a technique......it's about the application.
"jesus christ, using your brain is NOT in & of itself a technique"
Yeah? Who said it was genius? I said the fact that the game is so mental-aka requires you to make split second decisions-there IS a lot of ad-lib "technique" especially at the skill positions, but you are too blindly in love with your European stone age sports to realize this. I mean...thats got to be what it really is. I mean you probably like curling as well.
"...reciting a novel of running patterns & blocking routines being fun...Its the absolute polar opposite of expressive by literal definition..."
There's a reason people play football. If you don't think they're having fun and being "expressive" as they do it, you are a moron...
...polar opposite of a genius
The "memory tests" argument is dumb because I don't know one football player who ever complained he hated learning the plays. Even that part of it is fun.
"All sports implement strategy, it's just that most stop short of giving players actual blueprints for every single thing that they do......sport is meant to be expressive & fun, not a memory test."
You just made this up. Because it is "expressive and fun" and I doubt anybody whos ever played the game views it as a "memory test". But, the fact that so much of the game is mental does lend credence to how technical it is.
I don't get why you think tackling in American football is about hitting people from their "blind side" and "clotheslining". Sorry but you have proved beyond a shadow of a doubt you don't know what you are talking about. They have drills on proper tackling....like how to use leverage, hitting them at the center of weight, etc. Coaches spend hoards of time on this stuff. I mean...wtf...are you watching highlight reels or something?
Let's face it, unless you're 400lbs, like being told what to do all the time & enjoy running around in circles & being flattened by fat guys, you probably wont enjoy American Football that much.....most other sports are more fun to play in real life than in a videogame, AF is the opposite...
@supahdupahguy81 are you retarded there are not any 400lb people in the nfl and i enjoy playing football and i am 5'7''. there are also people like Desean Jackson who are as big as me and play football. and also you do not run around in circles because that would make the game pointless.
I was exaggerating but the point remains that AF is a sport for fat ppl who don't like thinking for themselves....if you're not the QB then you'll either be colliding into ppl or running around in patterns, it aint fun...
I dunno if u follw the news but they dont wear "tiny shorts" & havent done for about 20 years but nevermind.....the fact that most of the world plays that sport & nobody plays yours says all we'll ever need to know about either game...
@supahdupahguy81 I could say the same about cricket with regards to you loling at baseball. ;)
And 1/6th of the world tunes in for the Super Bowl, supposedly, a not insubstantial amount of viewers. So it's apparently more popular than you think it is. (b'-')b Not on the level of the World Cup, I know, but still a very high viewership.
Out of curiosity, what was a Brit like you doing on a video that pertains to a video game about American football in the first place?
Say the same about cricket if you want, baseball is just a copy of rounders except rounders in england is only played by 10 yr old girls.
Are you suggesting that 1 billion ppl watch the superbowl? LOL, where did you get those figures from? From when they had to cancel NFL europe b'coz nobody was turning up to watch the games, i know exactly how popular gridiron is.
I can watch what i want, i left one comment here months ago but i keep getting replies from butthurt gridiron fans.
Well...you can laugh at football all you want. It certainly takes more skill to be good at football than to play soccer. Perhaps thats why soccer is so popular over there and American football isn't. Perhaps 1-0 scores rock Europe like New Years Eve necause your guys sports craving is not on the same level as in America.
"It certainly takes more skill to be good at football than to play soccer. "

LMAO........at least we dont have to endure 20 minutes of stop-start action/commercials/cheerleaders/brass bands just to see someone carry the ball forward 2 yards..
@WarHorseVarejao how does it take more skill exactly? if football is so awsome then why is soccer the 1# played sport in the world, while football is only in like the US, Canada, and maybe mexico
You sit there in your seat. Your eyes twitch left and then right. You wait for something interesting to happen (ie a goal/a wreck) and it doesn't.
Perhaps you Europeans are just too deeply rooted in your traditional sports to appreciate more modern sports like American Football. You are old school.
You've basically taken rugby, a game which actually comes from the middle ages, and somehow made it even more boring & shit than that!....
LOL at having to sit through marching bands, commercials, cheerleaders, endless stop-start plays....and at the end of all that you're lucky if you see the offensive team gain 10 yards...
The vast majority of human beings must be missing the point of gridiron or something coz we just dont get it.
I get it. You like soccer because of 0-0 scores and people running around aimlessly not accomplishing anything. But they sure do run hard. Running hard takes a tremendous amount of skill and talent.
Obvioulsy running hard requires more talent than breaking/making tackles, throwing/catching a football, being able to execute hundreds of different plays (which reminds me there is more strategy involved in American football than in soccer), etc.
..And herein lies the difference between America & the rest of the world.
We find running around in circles & randomly bumping into ppl fun....up until about age 6, then as our motor skills develop, we require a more technical, grown-up activity to play (soccer), running & crashing around (gridiron/rugby) just seems silly after that.
I suppose with you guys it's the other way round, & LOL at having to read a book before playing a sport, worst concept ever.
"Sorry but there is much more technical detail in American football."
--
You're going to have to explain to me where the technical application is in running around in pre-determined paths & crashing into dudes as hard as you possibly can coz quite frankly i don't see it.
...& the most ironic thing about your analogy is that both golf & soccer are miles more popular worldwide than gridiron, so clearly those sports don't seem to have that much trouble entertaining ppl at all..
"Learning plays" is not a technique fuck outta here.....Tackling? you mean when they're randomly crashing into each other? that doesn't look like the height of technical aptitude to me....in fact none of those things are technical apart from the forward pass, which is a highly technical skill, true.

"Pick a sport"
--
Well i don't know what sports you've played but gridiron is the only "major" sport in the world i know of where the phases of play are near 100% choreographed.
You think tackling does not require technique. This proves that you don't know what you are talking about. Learning plays and implementing and being precise with your routes and timing is being technical.
"Gridiron is the only "major" sport in the world I know of where the phases of play are near 100% choreographed"
You have a problem with strategy being implemented in sports? How "choreographed" is it for the defensive players who don't know what's coming?
TACKLING does require technique, running at someone from their blindside & clothes-lining them does NOT. Let's not confuse proper, controlled tackling (like you see in rugby) with whatever the hell you call "tackling" in gridiron.
/
All sports implement strategy, it's just that most stop short of giving players actual blueprints for every single thing that they do......sport is meant to be expressive & fun, not a memory test.
I get it now. You stupidly think that football is about hitting people from their blindside. You believe there is no real tackling in football despite the fact that players are trained extensively on how to do so. You talk about American football coming from rugby and then you say rugby requires proper tackling but American football does not?
Get outta here dude. You don't know what you are talking about. Its OK to admit it.
I used to hang on the intro too, the song rocked. This game owned everything else. Nothing was like it! It's funny how it's so old, it has the old EA logo, like from the "Adventure Construction Set" days...
LMAO! It was only 19 years ago, and the game looks like it was from the Stone Age. I remember owning a copy of this when I was like 5. It is truly incredible that technology has come as far as it has in 20 years.
@WhiteDudeWithAnAfro I agree, it is amazing how far technology has come. At the same time, you have to realize how revolutionary and high tech this game was at the time. Before this, all football games were were two-diimensional with the field going horizontally from left to right. The graphics, though primitive by today's standards, were amazing for the time, as not long before that players were represented by not more than stick figures, or fuzzy blobs, blips or actual X's and O's.
Its absolutely amazing that 18 years ago when you played the playoffs in this game there were in-game highlights of other games and post game highlights of the other games. Today with the systems we have EA no longer does this.
I think this was the only game in the series, where the crowd storms the field after you win the Superbowl. About a minute after the goalpost falls down.
@dATfAKA81G Hey retard, you are obviously deficient when it comes to reading, otherwise you would have noticed that comment was not "my" quote, but me quoting someone else. Why don't you try reading into the context of a comment for once rather than pressing keys like a monkey on a typewriter.
Get a Genesis emulator (I use GENS) that has a sound capture option. In GENS, choose the tab "Sound", then "Start WAV dump" while you're playing and it'll capture the sound as a .wav file until you choose "Sound" and "Stop WAV dump".
I had this game back in 91... The granddaddy of Football games. The one that taught me what a shotgun formation was. Praise the King of sports games.
that's true that madden has dominated videogame football for almost 20 years now, but you gotta give big ups to what started it all, Techmo bowl and it's even better sequel, Tecmo superbowl. Football games would never be the same.

pieisafriend 2 years ago
Its absolutely amazing that 18 years ago when you played the playoffs in this game there were in-game highlights of other games and post game highlights of the other games. Today with the systems we have EA no longer does this.

I think this was the only game in the series, where the crowd storms the field after you win the Superbowl. About a minute after the goalpost falls down.

the games now.
The controller is like Holding a TV Controller so many buttons and triggers
there was only 2 buttons back then A & B thats its...and the D PAD.. which none of you know what that is except for those who played it.
The only game i really enjoy now is
Grand Theft Auto.
Even the first METAL GEAR was on Nintendo 8 - Bit and that game was hard. but it was fun. Playstation wasn't even around yet.
Nintendo was on Coleco Vision System
look up Donky Kong on Coleco

This game might be old... but all of you who don't remember this game means your to YOUNG... this was before your time.
The games back in the 80's Nintendo / Sega was by far better than any game system now.
no cheat guides. no memory cards, no hints you had to use your brain to figure things out.
Great games were
Contra, Double Dragon, Metriod, Tecmo Bowl, Excite Bike, Rygar, Zelda, Mario, and many others

You have obviously never heard of the Contra Code, or Nintendo Power.

i used to play this, but i preffered the hockey game ;-) ... is it somehow possible to get the "soundtrack" of these two games????
haggismchaggis 2 years ago
Get a Genesis emulator (I use GENS) that has a sound capture option. In GENS, choose the tab "Sound", then "Start WAV dump" while you're playing and it'll capture the sound as a .wav file until you choose "Sound" and "Stop WAV dump".

Equint77 3 years ago
that's true that madden has dominated videogame football for almost 20 years now, but you gotta give big ups to what started it all, Techmo bowl and it's even better sequel, Tecmo superbowl. Football games would never be the same.
