The ESRB has confirmed that Tecmo Bowl is coming to the Playstation 3 and XBox 360.

I hope there's online support.

That its licenced by the NFL, if not PLEASE create new teams and not fake NFL ripoffs like Madden 64.

[qface64]

won't be licensed by the NFL since EA holds the rights to said license (if i remember right)

gonna end up being a download game most likely
probably gonna go 8bit or retro style and everyone will eat it up just because its NOSTALGIC.....
that's what i predict at least

[Rainstorm81]

Not another 8 bit debacle.

Nostalgic my azz, New 8 bit games shouldnt exist in 2010. Like Mega Man 9 & 10, i just chalk it up to laziness. I mean in this day and age it must take like two guys a few months to develop an entire 8 bit game. User created levels on LBP impress more MM 9 or 10.

Anyone wants to play a 8 bit game buy the original nintendo or emulate on your PC.

[ThatArtGuy]

like Mega Man 9 or 10 is a style choice. The game plays great, which is what truly matters. If a particular look fits the gameplay, all the better.

If Mel Brooks could make a *successful* silent movie in the '70's (50 years after they were outdated), who is to say that they shouldn't be made?

[qface64]

i agree with you Raiinstorm81 i find t silly that cspcom make something as lazy like MM9 and MM10 yet people still eat it up and praise them for it

[beavis4play]

awesome!..........if the price is right.

I hope the PS3 version isn't gimped because of the 360.

/s

[xaviertooth]

i agree. it's now the BIGGEST fear of every gamer out there. the 360 has been gimping this gaming generation.

[skwidd]

Yea from my understanding this game is going to need a lot of storage space that I'm not quite confident a DVD can handle.

/s

[xaviertooth]

i hope they can mimic all the teams in the nfl my fear is that due to 360s storage limitation, instead of all the teams and all the stadiums, it will be cut down into half just to appease the 360 owners and then later add the remaining half through dlc.

[aaronisbla]

if it aint tecmo super bowl with real teams and players, no thanks, i'll stick to the original.

[Grown Folks Talk]

not the NFL licensed NES version. Doesn't matter to me because my NES still works & I already have the good version.

[execution17]

but was already a 1337 gamer :P

yea could bring back some old gaming memories

[goldenone]
