Re: How did YOUR love for football games begin?

It started with Tecmo Bowl/Tecmo Super Bowl on the NES. I honestly can't remember being more in love with a video game than when I got Tecmo Super Bowl for Christmas one year. I didn't care if I didn't get another present, I just wanted this game. I took a hiatus through High School and College before I got back into gaming, and Madden 2002 on the PS2 rekindled my football gaming. No game has ever owned me like Tecmo Super Bowl, and probably never will again.

Re: How did YOUR love for football games begin?

Wow... Probably officially started with Atari football. Ten Yard fight was a BIG step up for the NES. I remember that you couldn't change the colors of the teams uniforms, so I adjusted the color settings on the OLD tv to change the jersey colors. NES upgraded a bit with John Elway's football, but it got really cool when Tecmo bowl hit the market. I remember playing it in the arcade, and it was fantastic. Everything after that was pretty much a Madden title, Joe Montana football on the Genesis was okay too. I still swear by Madden 07 (Ps2) as the best overall football game to date.


GO DEVILS.

Re: How did YOUR love for football games begin?

definitely had the hand held football game shown above.

Basically started because I have Nebraska blood in me and watching 12-14 games a year isnt enough.

Edit: also have this
