    It successfully channels the spirit of its inspiration, it will please the niche audience that remembers it, and it’s impossible not to appreciate all the TLC that must have gone into its creation. Good strategy will win games and the playbook is not shallow, but it’s impossible not to love a game where victory can also be won by killing the opposing team’s best players.

    Mutant Football League is fast, dirty fun, and definitely one of my favorite sports games in recent years.

    Like it or not, Madden NFL 18 is still by far the best American Football game on the PlayStation 4, but if you fancy something a little sillier then Mutant Football League is not a bad shout at all. It plays similarly to the iconic EA series, but its aggressive playbook and irreverent sense of humour make it a fun alternative for a few downs – just don’t expect the appeal to last long into overtime.

    Mutant Football League is a cheap and poorly executed arcade sports game. I think the developers went in with all the right intents, because there really aren't enough sports games being made for people who aren't willing to put a major commitment into the game in order to be able to appreciate it on any level. But for all the good intentions this game needs so much refinement, polish, and a complete graphical overhaul that I can't see myself busting this game out the next time I've got guests looking to play a game, either.

Fans of the original Mutant League Football (Sega Genesis) or the NFL Blitz series will LOVE this game. This isn't Madden NFL ... this is exciting and fun arcade Football.

Kill the tackler :) Oh and there are some subtle nuances that you discover as you play that make it all worth while. Go buy it :) Expand

    I will admit that this game had some serious balancing issues when it was first released, I can now say those have been addressed and the gameI will admit that this game had some serious balancing issues when it was first released, I can now say those have been addressed and the game plays great! The graphics are fun and the controls are very responsive. Things I especially like about it are the simplified playbooks and almost turn-based-strategy mini game that happens within the game when trying to pick when to use your dirty tricks and bribery of the ref. Even if you never played the old Genesis version nor even like Madden, do yourself a favor and at least try this title. This was made by people who remember that games should be fun first and everything else next. Expand

You can't expect the polish of a Madden title, but along with that you can also skip the complexities. This game takes you back to the good old days of console football where games were high scoring and brutal affairs that anyone could jump into for fun without being intimidated by complex control schemes for every different position/scenario in sports games. So go ahead, give it shot, blow some mutants up, rip some aliens apart, and maybe score a few points while you're at it. Expand
