Tecmo Super Bowl III: Final Edition

Tecmo Simulator Bowl: The Sequel


Genre: sports - football

Publisher: Tecmo

Year: 1995

System: Genesis


Gameplay Score: 4

Gameplay Notes:

Incorporates a few simulation features only present in Madden and its clones. 16 plays instead of only 8. Audibles Hard to gauge the strength of a kickoff because the bars that fill the gauge move but they don't have a container to show the max level. Less time to survey the field. A little harder to connect with an open receiver. Still very fun but a little less video gamey


Level Design Score: 4

Level Design Notes:

Lots of modes and a create-your-own player mode


Theme Score: 5

Theme Notes:

NFL and NFLPA licenses. Plays brisk with nice animations that reward great plays or achievements Less cartoony than the original


Art Style Score: 3

Art Style Notes:

Players are a little bit beefed up and more detailed. They have some shading to them. Still tiny but animate and move well


Audio Score: 3

Audio Notes:

Sounds are much improved over the prequel but still not great


Overall Score: 77

Review ID: 1313
