Tecmo Bowl Throwback! (gameplay)

[maxwellfritz11447]

is this still on xbox live and if so what is it under indie games or acarde games

[SportsVideoGaming]

@maxwellfritz11447

no idea but it's on PSN.

[oriecio]

Worst part now about ea sports is that after u spend $60 bucks to get the game..... you cant adequately train your players with out paying more money for ea points to get a training engine......

[LivinWorstNightmare]

And this is why Tecmo should be doing NFL instead of Madden. All the way down from the playbook to ratings Tecmo was far more accurate than Madden.

[hylianzeldamaster]

Tecmo...the only ones to truly get a football video game right :)

[cstaterams2]

Funny thing is that Madden actually looks like this from a side view. Hmmmmmm!  Is Madden really worth $70...You have to ask yourself.

[TheDucciano]

@cstaterams2

Cot Damn! 70 duckets? I don't play video games but I remember when they were 25-35 bucks.

These $70 games  must come with a free blowjob.

[1EPowerUp]

is this on PSN yet?

[Twister82697]

@1EPowerUp  Yes

[SuperPeezoo]

Tecmo never though to upgrade that old CHEEZIE play book

[SektorCyraxSpeedy]

look great graphic but i wish NFL NOT THROWBACK

[juanparty]

wow that referee really has muscles:

[KromeDometheKing]

It was da shit on Nintendo, it was da shit on Sega Genesis, it was da shit on SNES, and it's da shit on PS3. Any thoughts otherwise, kiss ass.

[joshuabublitz8]

are there trophies

[TheBicentennialNigga]

I don't like it....Looks better than the original, better yet the SNES version was the best.

I still take this shit over Madden though. Them mother fuckers that make that shit on Madden are some dumb ass mother fuckers when it comes to the ratings and rankings. Like Peterson never fumbling the ball, how many times that nigga drop the ball last year?

[dabulls108]

fix the fucking lag already!!!!!

[FabsRuled]

Tecmo bowl was great back in the day when their was nothing better, if you like games full of broken plays and terrible AI then this game is the best football game ever for you. No one can touch Madden for AI and gameplay so stop pretending it is 1990 and we are all skipping class playing Tecmo bowl having a blast, because it is not happening.

[deshaun182]

@FabsRuled Wow, ive almost never heard someone say somethin like that about Tecmo Super Bowl. Tecmo Bowl was alright, but Tecmo Super Bowl was the real deal. Yeah, the AI was pretty crappy, but thats when you start. Like any game, it gets harder as you go along. Bein 16-0 and in the Super Bowl, the computer just always happened to make the right decisions, and cause you a few turnovers too. I agree, its not 1990, and most certainly no ones skipping class for it, but its still the best :)

[FabsRuled]

@deshaun182 It was by far my favorite game back then BY FAR. Could not beat real NFL teams and players, terrible AI made it fun but in no way was it great "gameplay" football game, zig zag runs, uncovered bombs, rolling the scoreboard often, 5k yard rushing seasons, etc.

Just tired of people hating on Madden. There is a reason Madden is still around and others are not, you turn up the difficulty you have a fairly realistic FB game and every year the AI gets better. AI AI AI AI makes FB games

[dragonsbliss24]

@FabsRuled You talk about facts however your facts on very wrong. Tecmo Bowl did not have AI because it was back in the day. If you picked a play and they picked another it was a chance that your defense would play good. If you picked a run and they picked a pass obviously they will beat you because of "chance". Madden may have AI but its horribly ran. There is always an exploit of some plays that always break through the defense and plays that will never fail on offense. Idiot

[hippa2dahoppa2]

dont buy this game it has a serious bug issue, i have videos on my profile to prove it i bought it and its unplayable for me now!

[FabsRuled]

@hippa2dahoppa2 are you surprised it has bugs? This game is famous because of the zigging choo choo train to make defenders dive and miss, and no coverage at all on WRs

[Kaishakunin47]

I'm soooooooooooooooooooooooooo glad I got this game, I was a lil skeptical at first cuz I had no idea what 2 expect, but seriously

greatest football game ever LOL

worth every goddamn penny! this is definitely a go getter!

[outsideredge]

I like this...it's a videogame first, and a football game second. Madden is a good game too, but I hate their exclusivity

[WecanWinJesse]

this game is mad fun i rearranged the team names to match the colors and name the players.

[anotherdrunkguy]

FUCK YEAH BABY!!!! I grew up on this shit

[shishiden]

give it a chance its fast paced fun.

its a remake of the nes game that started "fun" football games.. the people that are my age that played nes is going to love this. any form of hate comment for this game is clearly some immature kid.

[604PENNYWISE]

i think im gonna get NFL Arcade insted

[OhioBornColtFan]

Now available in PSN!

[DustinPedroia2008MVP]

its better then the backbreaker bullshit

[DirkXXVI]

Yet another reason to be thankful for EA Sports and their wonderful exclusivity agreement. Great job EA.

[ghunter1]

One the best game ever created forget madden.

[zardac]

[Stimchi]

As soon as this song came on, i thought of that scene in Back to the Future. I need to go get that movie......

[d3f1n1t1v]

@Stimchi lol aint that the truth

[SchoolClown1]

i still cant find the game on psn just the trailer and desktop anyone know why this is ?

[GeezuzKhrist119]

someone best make a custom NFL Roster for this.

[85fabricio]

i dont like american football but i love this game on the nes

[cclizarkb]

why the hell does it always take soo long to get shit on PSN?

[initiat3]

@cclizarkb because us xbox players actually pay for stuff u get free shit and thats why u get more lag and DLC later. i have a ps3 i know what im talking about

[kysouthern]

can you create players?

[GarthDiant]

If you don't like this song then you need to learn some respect, classic.

[frankolol]

whats the song??

[VickAuc]

@frankolol It's called Johnny B. Goode. It was the first rock and roll song ever.

[araxen]

Get better music.

[NiNtenBricK]

i hate how people are calling this game garbage. the preceding game of this started all sport games really.

[VaughnMead]

this shit looks gross, yall talk about madden but you know you gonna play it

[stoningtonj]

@Razzlesnaps whats backbreaker?

[MrIncr3d1ble]

@stoningtonj this garbage ass game.....thats all you need to know lol.....its garbage

[drstclair]

QB EAGLES FTW!!!

[soft383]

[soft383]

[thall69]

Holy crap!!! I remember Barry Sanders was unstoppable on this game. I see they kept the zip zap thing. I'm buying this. See you punks online

[truenotwincam]

Tecmo Bowl > NFL 2k5 > Madden

[dolphinbuc]

i'm gonna buy this cause it's an alternative tomadden and i don't always wanna play nfl games.

[SportsVideoGaming]

April 28th on XBOX Live. PSN still TBD!

[leodjoneluv]

I can not wait for this to come out, Man this is going to be the bomb

[budlightmofo]

This looks bad

[funkyflights]

Madden is garbage .... TECMO forever!!!

[kccrownedking]

@funkyflights are you f'ing kidding me? Madden is KING.....and plus Tecmo wont have real teams or players, Madden has the private licsence....it's not 1992, grow up

[funkyflights]

@kccrownedking

Dude madden is Fking GARBAGE.... And this is coming from a guy that used to compete in Madden tourneys on a regular basis back in the day... ONCE Madden changed the engine making the leap to the 360 and ps3 it's TERRIBLE!!! OMG I cant even believe people spend there hard earned money on that crap.. EA is stealing from you!!!!

[ssidiouss]

@funkyflights I used to play in Madden tourneys also and I totally agree with this dude. Madden died when it made the jump to 360/PS3.  It doesn't feel or play like the old madden at all... sure its a nice looking football game but it is not Madden. To me its just EA SPORTS FOOTBALL now. I'll definitely be trying Tecmo Throwback and hoping for the best.. it seems they really appreciate the Tecmo name and gameplay from the videos so far.

[funkyflights]

@ssidiouss

Amen.....

[nappyNIGHTMARES]

i'm going 2 download this damn song 4 good luck!

[nappyNIGHTMARES]

you'll b c'n my name at the top of the leaderboards. good luck people!!

[rjc0l3]

is there a way to play against a bot instead of having to play on live with other people?

[rjc0l3]

this looks more fun then madden 11

[murderdoll9191]

@rjc0l3 Anything is better then the madden games..well almost anything.

[sneskegagama]

ill just customize the teams to nfl,ncaa,or tecmo super bowl 91 with bo jackson.

[chargerboy411]

[matt11708]
