    The game is looking really, really good! It's nice to see Tecmo having confidence in there game and showing it off before release. Good to know they are going to promote it. Can't wait!!!

      I'll be playing 2D.

      I hope you guys are with me on that so I can crush you

      He said very VERY soon... hopefully that means weeks and not months. My thumb is twitching already...

      Lately I've had the TSB "injury" song stuck in my head. Hopefully that's not a real life foreshadowing? If I do get injured I promise I'll complete the prophecy and sprint out of the hospital in full pads with flowers in my hand.

        Speaking of music in the game - I hope it have that catchy 1st down tune from the NES Tecmo Bowl - for both players.

        It annoys me that the AI/Player 2 gets it in NES TSB and me as player 1 gets that bad sounding one that last like 3 seconds.

          I can't wait to buy this game.

          I don't think I can stomach playing the 2D version unless they made some serious changes to the sound. I hated the SNES version of this game because of the sound. The sound was just terrible to me. I never really liked the way a lot of developers used the SNES sound chip. A lot of it sounded like very cheap midi, even substandard for its time.

          Also, the game seems kinda slow in 3D, and the cut scene models need work. I don't say that from a sim standpoint because this game is not supposed to be a sim. I say that because they did a better job with those in other versions. The proportions in this one are completely out of whack.

          Another thing I'm hoping for is that we can change team colors, but I have a serious doubt there.

          Anyway, I'm really looking forward to this game. From the video it seems like they tried hard to keep the gameplay elements as close as possible to the original, so that's a big sigh of relief from me.

              I can't wait. This is the first game I'm going to shoot for the leaderboards on I think. My play guessing skills were Ms. Cleo-like back in the day. Winner winner chicken dinner Lloyd is coming for YOU!

                This will be the first time I'l be shooting for the leaderboards myself. Next year they have to add online seasons and tournaments. Only then will we see the full potential for this franchise. I'm more then content for this being the first year on XBL and PSN. Tecmo Bowl is backkkk!

                  Tecmo is one of the few games I take personal. There's real man-pride on the line. Tapping is manly!

                  See ya in a couple weeks on XBLA! Can't wait.

                    Hard to imagine a whole lot of people playing 2D online when you can only see about 30 yards ahead as opposed to what looks like 50 on the 3D version. I know how Tecmo is and that you can usually tell if a guy is going to be open before he runs off screen, but being able to see that far ahead is a pretty big deal.

                    Nice interview.

                      Game looks really fun. In the future Id like to see them take this game to the next level and push the annimations and graphics to next gen limits. Only because I feel the side camera can offer a lot even in a sim style football game. I'll be buying this game.

                      When you switch to 2d is the graphics going to snes version? I would have liked to have seen a 2d updated graphics engine as well. If nothing else cleaning up the old graphics with lines and detail,etc...

                        He didn't ask if your edits worked during online play?

                        for example.. you edited all the names so they matched the 1993 rosters.. would that be included when you played online?

                        i doubt they did that actually. fml

                              It's based off the 1993 NFL, all they did was change the names and probably the numbers, but all the same ratings are still intact.
