    NFL Blitz is one of the best, if not the best arcade sports experiences on the market.

    The lack of late hits and the inability to change the length of games don't take away from the fact NFL Blitz is a whole lot of fun. Compounded by the fantastic announcers and ongoing unlocks, NFL Blitz is a great sports experience folded into a downloadable package.

    For the price at hand, this is a must have for Blitz fans and football fans alike. The sheer enjoyment is only hindered by a lack of customization options and, of course, the removal of some of the more violent content.

    Exactly what it needs to be: stupid good fun. The only thing it's missing is that old pizza parlor smell.

    Fantastic fun!!! The gameplay and controls are smooth and the sound is great. The visuals are over the top, but really match the Blitz line of games. If you are looking for a simulation...go play Madden. This is a near perfect remake of the old arcade game with slightly updated rosters. There are some obvious flaws in the line ups...but nothing a Blitz fan would balk at. Does Michael Vick throw right handed in the game? Sure...but who cares? This is a $15 game that could have been tweaked slightly and sold for $50.… Expand

    Great fun game to play with anyone who remotely likes football. I have always been just plain bad at sports games switching them out with GOW3 and BF3 but this is a great pick up and play game with much to do for 15 dollers!… Expand

    Blitz is still more fun than Madden, but it is missing a few things. The gameplay is still intact, everything from the playbooks to the animations are the same except for the late hits which actually is a big deal when you have attention deficit disorder. ;) The game is very fun online, especially with a friend and the Gauntlet mode is awesome for offline, but Blitz needs a season mode for stats addicts like me who are sick of Madden. Who cares if it's arcade football? The others had it, so why not it's updated version. If it had franchise or even season mode, then it would have scored a 9 but unfortunately EA left it out.… Expand
