His safety was a sick user outside manual rush that nailed me with a NASTY slide. He was a good player... ranked just below me at the 24 slot on the leaderboards. It was a classic game that had me constantly just saying "wow"! For some reason, I always have these legendary games in Tecmo. I don't know how they ever made this simple game so compelling, but they did.

What you just wrote is the exact reason why Tecmo Bowl is the single greatest football game ever made! The game is so simple yet so compelling and exciting, it really keeps you coming back for more. It's like your favorite movie (Scarface for me), that you can watch over and over again and never get tired of. Madden no matter the technical superiority never gave me the fun, excitement, and competitive challenge I get from Tecmo Bowl.The fun I have playing a game is how I measure the greatness of a title and Throwback has that in spades. Tecmo Bowl is the game of Legends!!!
