Tackle Alley =

[xNYGx]

Fun until you get far into it. Then it becomes absurd and annoying. And the camera certainly makes it suck more as you progress. The boundaries that begin popping up later on are INCREDIBLY annoying, not to mention the fact that sometimes your ballcarrier seems to do what ever he wants (making quick jerks or turning the wrong way).

I got to WAVE 73, then got my *** kicked. By WAVE 50, I still had like 40+ continues, and lost a majority on 2-3 waves. It gets way out of hand when the boundaries only allow enough room for 2 players to stand side by side.

If you're trying to get to WAVE 100, good luck. For me, that'll be one achievement I'll never get because I refuse to sit through another 72 waves just to pick up where I left off. It gets too frustrating to enjoy, so I guess I'll just live with WAVE 72 being my best. And to those who did get that far... Congratulations, because it's TOUGH.

Re: Tackle Alley =

I couldn't get past Wave 50. It's not that it was necessarily hard, just I would get near the end and after I juke one of the last guys, a guy I crossed up long ago would come up from behind me.

I love Tackle Alley, but I wish there was a way I could play some of the higher up ones without having to do, say, 1 through 30 again.

Re: Tackle Alley =

They should let you practice section 10 at a time, so basically turn it into 10 optional practice minigames or go for it all and do all 100 waves in order.

At least you can get achievements. My game is still bugged, it shows up in my recently played games list still, but no achievements yet after several more games.

Re: Tackle Alley =

Yea, I stayed up last night trying to just beat 50. Got to 49 with 10+ lives. I never beat 49. I was so frustrated. I would dodge all the tacklers, but after making the last guy miss, I would be hit by at least 2 guys from behind at a time.

got to 94

Re: Tackle Alley =

got to 94

Impressive, highest Ive gotten was 66 where I just couldnt figure it out. The bounderies they put in make it next to impossible for me so I can only imagine what they would be like when you get as far along as you did.

Re: Tackle Alley =

I got up to 73 and lost as well lol.

I find it fun, though. I found some of them WAY too easy, even some after 50+.

Re: Tackle Alley =

I agree that I too wish there were a 'save' point at like every 20 WAVES or so & Yes, I got to 73 (or was it 75) and didn't finish. I still it's very fun though... too easy at first but still fun.

Re: Tackle Alley =

65 is my highest. I only tried it one single time though and that was when I got to 65. Since then to busy building teams and logos OR playing the game.

Re: Tackle Alley =

isn't this how games used to be? now we live in an age of autosaves, frequent checkpoints, and the expectations that a game will be beaten. back in the day the question was "if I finish this game" not "when I finish". How many times did you have to play through a Sonic game before you figured out the trick to beat the last levels of the game? Gamers have turned into pansies ;-)

Re: Tackle Alley =

I got to 78, with over an hour to get there......I don't think I will try again. It is ridiculous how they stack the deck against you, but the CPU can run out of bounds, but you can not. LOL!

Re: Tackle Alley =

Yeah I know right they should make it extremely easy for people who arent very good at video games. Dont they know that people like you only play video games when you are able to beat the computer 154-0. What are they thinking making something actually a challenge!!!!

Re: Tackle Alley =

69 was my best, and I will give it another go.

I will get that 100 .

Re: Tackle Alley =

beastwork--- i think this whole game is built retro style. its not a pick up and play,you cant sim your season or rtbb, it hard to pass and run. i love it. but how many gamers got the demo and said this game suck because they could not pass and run for alot of yards out the gate. now tackle alley. luv it.
