In the late 1980's and on into the 90's, if there was one football video game to play it was Tecmo Bowl. Once Madden came out, however, the focus switched away from Tecmo and towards EA. Ever wonder what might have happened if the former was able to compete against the latter? Tecmo's new Family Fun Football might be a nice glimpse into that possibility.
Family Fun Football was clearly an effort to jumpstart Tecmo's legacy and bring it to a new generation of gamers. It is a mixture of some elements of Tecmo Bowl – the predecessor to Tecmo Super Bowl – some elements of Madden, and some elements not borrowed from either of those games.
Overall Family Fun Football is great fun for the whole family. However, if you are expecting another Tecmo bowl from this title you will be disappointed. This game is best played with friends and family, playing this title alone is not nearly as fun as the multiplayer.
