NFL Blitz 2000 for Dreamcast

Sega Dreamcast : Nfl Blitz 2000

The excitement of Midway's NFL BLITZ returns with a new version for the year 2000. This Dreamcast game is similar to last year's edition, though it contains many upgrades. There is a Four-Player mode implemented, as well as an extensive play editor that allows you to write your own plays and then use them against the computer or with your friends! This game is great for anybody who loves football, but doesn't want to get bogged down with all the rules.

NFL Blitz 2000

"No refs. No rules," boasts NFL Blitz 2000, making it clear that this game is not true-to-life football simulation. The game disregards strict realism in favor of outrageous moves, bone-crushing tackles, and jaw-dropping plays. And you'll need those big plays: a first down in NFL Blitz 2000 is 30 yards, and there aren't any rules against pass interference. The gridiron action is enhanced by the voices of the players. A safety who body-slams a wide receiver will stand over the writhing body and jeer, "You're in MY house, sucka!" A sacked quarterback may limp away, wailing, "I think it's broken!" Even the game's announcers get in on it, gleefully pointing out that your star running back just got clobbered. So NFL Blitz 2000 is the perfect game to play with your buddies. It's fast, fierce, and quickly gets everyone talking trash and slinging taunts. Up to four people can play at once, two on each team (each player needs their own controller). Fans of deep, realistic football strategy should check out NFL 2K. But fans of the kind of football found in highlight reels will love NFL Blitz 2000. Pros: Terrific multiplayer game for up to four players Brutal tackle animations Trash-talking players, great commentary from announcers Players can design custom plays and save them to a VMU Cons: Single-player game quickly gets old Turbo mode and other unrealistic moves may turn off hard-core sports fans --Michael Fehlauer
