Whenever the game "Tecmo Super Bowl" comes up in conversation, (whioh it rarely does nowadays) the words "greatest game ever" usually leak into the conversation somehow. Not only do I believe that this opinion is well-founded, but I also think that this game is possibly one of the best games that will ever exist. Anyhow, onto the review...

Graphics get a 9 due to them being at just about the apex of what the NES can do graphically. I especially like the art shown after certain plays (i.e. a touchdown) and the halftime report and postgame report features are simply fantastic! Sound is also a 9 because while the SFX is standard for the system, the music is excellent for the system's limitations. Addictiveness scores a perfect 10 because after you play this game once, you'll be playing it again and again and again! Depth gets a 7 due to the game's many similar game modes. Notable modes include Preseason, Season, and Pro Bowl. Difficulty is a 2 because the controls are very user friendly and, despite my rating, the CPU is actually vrey balanced.
