"The Greatest Football Game, EVER!!!!"

Over the past couple of months, I've played this game, getting better, learning the plays, and kicking the crap out of everybody and anybody. This game just has so much to it you'll be playing forever.(That is until NFL2001 or whatever comes out) But this game isn't with out it's faults, Announcers sometimes call the team(or player) the wrong name, there won't be a call on certain fouls, or some clipping will occur to mess you up. Anyway on with the review.

Gameplay- 10
This is where the game really suprised me, I thought great graphics means bad gameplay, but I was wrong this is one of the best playing games I've played. There really isn't anything wrong until a player besides 1st tries to call a time out or select something. The solution is use the analog stick. Also I have some trouble while running, such as sliding instead of passing.

Sound- 9
This is where they could've spent more time. Too many glitches! I remember playing as the Vikings against the Bears, The Vikings were 15-0 and Bears were something like 7-7 and both of us were announced as undefeated and trying to tie with the Dolphins to be undefeated. But this is also an area that is great the announcer speak fluidly and can add some comic relief to the game. But I hate the halftime report espically if you play more than one season game in a row.

Graphics- 10
This is one of the most beutiful games on the Dreamcast, behind Soul Calibur. The players are represented like thier real-life counterparts. You can also see holes in their jersey. There aren't blocky in the least, but the sidelines could use a little work because they're 2-D and always looking out at you!

This is the second best game out on the Dreamcast behind TNN Hardcore Heat, Just Kidding, Soul Calibur. A definate Buy!
