Great commercial for any of you old timers like me out their that like me used to play the best video football game back in the day Tecmo Bowl. I have seen 2 versions one with brian bosworth getting in the car with Bo.

At the Time Tecmo Bowl was ahead of its time for you youngsters out there !

Wasted many an hour playing the original years ago. I'd still like to find whoever created it, grab them by the collar and scream in their ear

"NO WAY NO DAY NO UNIVERSE EXISTS WHERE DEXTER MANLEY CAN COVER JERRY RICE ON A DEEP ROUTE!!!!"

I'm still mad about that.

Tecmo Bowl was fun, but limited teams made it not as good as Tecmo Super Bowl. Bo was unstoppable. The Bears D and Lawrence Taylor were absolutely dominating. Jack Trudeau with the rainbow pass that left the screen for 5 minutes only to come back down 40 yds later.

I loved Tecmo Super Bowl. Dallas was freakin awesome. Barry Sanders, Warren Moon, Dan Marino, Steve Young, Jerry Rice, Deion Sanders, and Randall Cunningham were insane. I loved the NT dive sack.....Russell Maryland would have over 100 sacks a season for me. Aikman would lead all QBs in yds, tds, and completion %. Emmitt would lead in yds., tds., and pts. Irvin would lead in receptions, yds., and tds for WRs. Harper would be 2nd in receptions, yds., and tds. Novacek would lead all TEs, and be in the top 5 overall in receptions, yds,, and tds. Johnston would be in the top 10 in tds. I would score at will against the computer.

One thing I hated though. Near the end of the 4th, the computer would always find a way to force a turnover and their defender could not be tackled....all your offensive players would just bounce off of him, all the way to the end zone....allowing the computer to thwart the shutout. It was freakin annoying.

tecmo super bowl wasn't that the first football video game that actually kept stats ? if i remember right it was ! and yes that was a great addition to the franchise. Tecmo bowl was the first massive change in video game football it was epic for its time
