Family Fun Football is a Tecmo Bowl disaster. It's clear that it wants to be the classic, but it takes a hard dive in quality. And without the Tecmo Bowl legacy, it just feels like a really bad, abridged arcade football game with limiting appeal.

Overall -
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.
