What a Blitz wanna-be this is. And it fails miserably at attempting to be one.

1. Graphics. Ok, these are laughable. I'm reminded of Atari 2600 games when watching this.

2.Sound. Har Har. A 10cent Pc Speaker has a wider range of sounds than this.

3. Terrain. You're kidding right ? Everything looks flat and lifeless.

4. Plays. Plenty of 'em. And if I could stand to look at this game, I'd probably try 'em all. It's very confusing, however, to try and pick a play.

5. Gameplay. Slow, clunky, laughable.

Don't buy this. You'll waste your money and time. Glad I rented it first.

This game is Blitz but it sucks. I played this game for 3 plays at Wal-Mart and quit. First off, this is Gameday but with "Trash talk and no penalties" You can also add no receptions either. Or no fun factor. I threw the ball three times and no one could catch it, even though there were 4 recievers around it. In Blitz, which I own and love, picking and throwing to a reciever is just aiming and firing. And they almost always catch it, too. Also, the graphics look like Gameday. No huge defensive linemen with bulging arms, like Blitz has. They look like spindly little twigs. The control also sucks. The total control passing game is great in Gameday, but for some reason fast paced football shouldn't be sim-like. The sound is pretty bad, too. The Blitz announcer says things like "Someone call the national guard" and "What a truly pathetic display". The Xtreme announcer just announces "incomplete pass" everytime you miss a pass, and that phrase gets old pretty fast. If you want a fast-paced arcade football game, get Blitz. If you want a sim game, get Gameday. But please, don't buy the version where both are mixed, it isn't pretty.

This game was really awsome. It was about as good as the first one.
