NFL Tour (Xbox 360) Reviews (Xbox 360 Games)

If you were anything like me, you enjoyed some hard-hitting action on the Nintendo 64 version ofNFL Blitz. It was a straightforward, arcade-style, over-the-top football game that was a blast to play, alone or especially with friends. There were no...

If you've played recent EA games that have used a card-based system, the included "Elite League" mode will be familiar territory. You're dealt a hand of cards (players), and you earn Blitz bucks by playing and winning online. The Blitz bucks can then...

Just as it did over the past couple of years with NBA Jam (both the original and the On Fire Edition), EA Sports has injected new life into yet another Midway arcade franchise, NFL Blitz. And even though the timing can be questioned – we're in playoff...

The stadiums don’t differ much, but who cares when you have this much chaos on the field? We also like the fantasy teams, from the hot dog suited dorks to the zombies. Yep, zombies. And what would NFL Blitz be without the returning Tim Kitzrow, who...

is EA Sports' answer to the constant demand of a return for the long-loved arcade football series. Absent since Midway filed for bankruptcy back in 2009, Blitz is everything we could have wanted in a remake, and more

NFL Blitz looks exactly as you'd think it would, filled with in your face visuals and muscle-bound versions of your favorite NFL Stars. It may lack some of the visuals from games like Madden, but the style works -- and it works well.

More developers need to learn from Blitz and offer this content as cheats...rather than DLC.

NFL Blitz contains the same shallow fun and aggravating flaws that have existed in the franchise for more than 14 years.

Bone-crushing action is still fun ; Lots of unlockable content ; Online play is smooth and engaging

Little has changed since original Blitz games ; Fluky quirks lead to frustration

Ranking up in Battle, unlocking cards in Elite, and fighting bosses in Gauntlet give Blitz a surprising amount of longevity. You could spend hours in each mode trying to gain access to everything, so there's plenty of content here for 1,200 Microsoft...

NFL Blitz is back after a decade-long absence on the video game field. How does EA Sports' interpretation of arcade classic stack up? Matt finds out.

EA Sports was in a fourth-down situation, having unsuccessfully tried to clone Blitz’s arcade football magic with NFL Street, NFL Tour and Madden NFL Arcade. By employing a trick play of “if you can’t beat ‘em, buy ‘em” and by sticking to the series’...

Arcade sports games have always had a special place in my heart. Whether I was smashing the glass in with Clinton in NBA Jam, or hurdling over players in NFL Blitz, the memories are etched into...

Gauntlet mode is awesome ; Online additions are addictive ; Still accessible to anyone

Lack of customization ; Online lag can plague games

Arcade sports games have always had a special place in my heart. Whether I was smashing the glass in with Clinton in NBA Jam, or hurdling over players in NFL Blitz, the memories are etched into my gaming consciousness. EA has recently been reviving a...

A skewed take on football takes the sport to silly x-tremes.

Then again, Blitz shouldn’t be too absurd. The NFL’s self-seriousness counterpointed with just the right amount of absurdity is what’s needed. The announcers strike the right tone: Brian Haley and Tim Kitzrow deliver the sort of inane Chris...

This downloadable throwback marries classic mechanics with robust multiplayer.

If the impending conclusion to the NFL season is giving you a case of the crazy eyes, it might be a good idea to take your aggression out on NFL Blitz, EA's addition to (formerly) Midway's hyperviolent football series. This downloadable title features...
