Amazon.com Review

For this installment in the series, Acclaim farmed out NFL Quarterback Club 2001's design to High Voltage Software--the same group that made the stellar All-Star Baseball 2001 that Acclaim released earlier this year. This year's game will leave a much sweeter taste in the mouth of anyone who purchased the sour NFL Quarterback Club 2000. The player models have been improved, the artificial intelligence has been reworked, and the game generally looks better and plays well.

The biggest improvements to this year's QB Club were those made in the passing game. Previously, the ball was pretty much impossible to catch, but now catching is basically automatic once it comes down in the receiver's vicinity. Even better, there aren't any buttons to master to make the receiver or running back bring the ball in.

The game offers three standard modes of play: exhibition, season, and playoffs. But before we forget, there's the sim-mode, which places you in right smack dab in the middle of some of the best Super Bowl games ever. Very nice!

The game is far from perfect, though. For one, the animation is still a bit on the choppy side, especially if you don't have the Expansion Pak. But it has improved a great deal and plays better than the first NFL Quarterback Club that was released way back when. Overall, this is a great game for budding NFL fans to cut their teeth on. --Todd Mowatt

Pros:

• Improved player models
• Better catching
• Sim-mode reenacts some of the best Super Bowl moments

Cons:

• Choppy animation

5.0 out of 5 stars Realistic beyond the competition, October 14, 2000

This game rocks Madden's world. Although Madden is fun to play with a friend, QB Club 2001 is great to play a season by yourself, or create a team. The graphics are great, and so is the gameplay. All of the annoying bugs and other glitches in the older versions seem to have been fixed. Plus, the players don't move so "choppy" anymore. And overall, I think it's a very improved game from the 2000 version.

Say goodbye to madden and blitz. The most realistic football game ever from nintendo is here. Plus all new EZ catch and passing modes make playing this game fun. Very addictive. The create teams and players modes are the best. No other football game compares to this in graphics or play-ability

This game is the bomb. It has the best graphics(basically no cubic things) and fun game plays. If you thought this game was bad, well think again! I would strongly recommend it! If you don't buy it, then you will miss the real heat of football madness.
