Way back on May 11th of last year the announcement was made that a new Tecmo Bowl would be coming in 08. At that time it was teased that it would be on one of the new systems but not the one people would be assuming. “I can’t tell you what platform we’re making it for. But I can tell you that it’s probably not going to be on the platform that you’re expecting… if that makes any sense.” Since then there has been absolutely nothing revealed about the game. That is until the Jan...

There have been rumors of a sequel to NFL Head Coach for some time now. It started last year back at E3, more recently on a gaming news rumor site, and google searches for "NFL Head Coach 09" bring back mentions from resumes of people who have apparently been working on the game. Another big sign has appeared as it is now listed with an April 23rd release date for the Xbox 360 and PS3 on Gamefly. It is still not listed on other sites such as Gamestop or Amazon. If that is the case and ...

The single player Tour mode feels tacked on and lacks any depth but the game was always meant to be more about the multiplayer experience. As I've played more I've started to get better on defen...

With NFL Tour in stores today I had the opportunity to get some time in playing online. After the poor performance from other Tiburon titles in the online arena this past year it was going to be interesting to see how well Tour turned out. EA specifically stated they were concentrating on the performance side for online play, which is why there aren't any modes other than the standard head-to-head. The most important thing going in was whether or not the game would be plagued by lag or disco...

I've mentioned how there are a lot of different options you can switch around to change up the game experience. I went ahead and took screenshots of all the settings and options screens, uniforms, and I've also noted everything that is available for online play. Continue on to check out the screens and read all the online details. (more...)...
