While this game tries to be ambitious in its design, it falls flat on many levels. The game play is often hard to control, the graphics and sound are lacking and the FMV sequences become annoying, and are obviously were filmed using the staff of programmers, making for a cheesy atmosphere. The game is more enjoyable when playing against a human opponent, although a four or five player mode would have been very welcome. This game is recommended only for die hard sports fans.
As far as Football games for the Duo go, this is the best you get. That doesn't mean its perfect, or even good. It is a decent translation of the Madden franchise of the time. It could have been better.
