This is the best football game. It is soooo fun. It has the best mode to make your own players, you get points to put at different skills; and they don't start out as stars you have to make them play good, then they might get better. Has a pretty good mode for being the GM for your team. I have played hours and hours with my freinds on this. The only bad things about this game is that the computer is pretty easy to beat the computer once you know how to play the game, and the rosters are old now, and the game play is not vwery realistic but that doesn't matter because it's so fun. If they made a new version of this game with updated rosters it would crush the competition on the fun factor.

This is nearly a perfect football game, they actually improved over the first installment which I didn't think possible. You now have 16 plays on offense (only 8 at a time on screen), There are more long running plays and passing is more challenging. The QBs can't throw tacklers off as easily either, which leads to more sacks by non-human controlled players. They added trades, free agents and Carolina/Jacksonville. Overall this may be the best football game ever.

This is the best football game ever ever. The maddens are all eye candy this game is the real deal. You have all the classic players you have the smooth gameplay. The fun factor is great. Tecmo football games are the best football games ever.

Do the graphics suck? Yes. Is it unrealistic? Yes. Do the animations get old after a while? Oh yes. But is this the greatest football game for the SNES, and possibly the most fun football game ever made? Yes. Tecmo Super Bowl III can't be matched when it comes to fun. The bad graphics almost add to its appeal. The play control is actually pretty good, and the teams are accurate for when it was made. The best part about this game is that you can create your own players and teams, and improve them until you dominate the entire game. You can even play a friend with your super teams. You can also sign free agents. It's just an incredible game, way ahead of its time when it comes to extra features. Wow. I still play my older brother, and we're in our mid-20's. This is a great game..trust me.

It's hard to believe the best football game ever made was released in 1994, but it was. Tecmo Super Bowl III was the best football game made at the time, and it continues to be the best overall football game. Put simply, with all 30 teams (at the time) the full NFL is represented, and TSBIII succeeds where the newer generation of games fails: gameplay. The gameplay alone is addictive enough to play season after season. Gameplay: 10/10.

Each team has 16 plays (8 passing & 8 rushing), it's double the options from the previous editions. None of that choosing through 500 plays with 89 buttons like today's football games. Even better, there are numerous plays from which to choose, and all 16 plays are modifiable for those who want a power running game, as well as the Air Coryell disciples. You make your own playbook! Not only that, but players can be created and improved throughout the season, for a maximum amount of modification. Add in both offensive and defensive audibles, and you've got a game that was incredibly cutting edge. Awesome. Customization: 9/10.

Sure, the graphics (6/10) and sounds (6/10) aren't what we've come to expect with games today, but the replayability (10/10) is outstanding. Complete stats, dive plays, easy passing adjustments, a great season mode, league leaders/rankings, modifiable lineups, random injuries with varying times missed, team records, and even a few tricks to the game make it above all else, fun to play.

Best football game ever made.

This was the best format for playing football better than how football games are now. Tecmo or any company should bring this style back just update some little things (not too much like tecmo bowl on PS1!) keep it 2D and we would have a winner.

This game for Genesis was better, but the other reviewers forgot some things. If you win three superbowls in a row with the same team, it unlocks the all time greats like running back 34 for the chicago bears. The players are not named, but if you know football you can figure it out.
