Editorial Review:
"No refs. No rules," boasts NFL Blitz 2000, making it clear that this game is nottrue-to-life football simulation. The game disregards strict realism in favor of outrageous moves,bone-crushing tackles, and jaw-dropping plays. And you'll need those big plays: a first down in NFL Blitz2000 is 30 yards, and there aren't any rules against pass interference.
The gridiron action is enhanced by the voices of the players. A safety who body-slams a wide receiver willstand over the writhing body and jeer, "You're in MY house, sucka!"A sacked quarterback may limpaway, wailing, "I think it's broken!"Even the game's announcers get in on it, gleefully pointing out thatyour star running back just got clobbered.
So NFL Blitz 2000 is the perfect game to play with your buddies. It's fast, fierce, and quickly getseveryone talking trash and slinging taunts. Up to four people can play at once, two on each team (eachplayer needs their own controller).
Fans of deep, realistic football strategy should check out NFL 2K. But fans of the kind of football foundin highlight reels will love NFL Blitz 2000.
Pros:

Pros:
- Terrific multiplayer game for up to four players
- Brutal tackle animations
- Trash-talking players, great commentary from announcers
- Players can design custom plays and save them to a VMU
- Single-player game quickly gets old
- Turbo mode and other unrealistic moves may turn off hard-core sports fans

- Arena Football meets NBA JAM
If you like Arena Football and love fast paced, thumb twitching, sweaty palm action then this game is for you.If you're looking for REAL football go for NFL 2K1.THE GOOD NEWS.This is really a game about scoring massive amounts of points, pounding the crud out of NFL players that you hate in real life, and having ARCADE fun.The tackles are right out of the WWE, the game speed is that of NBA JAM, and the thrill of winning is surpassed by none.THE BAD NEWS.The big hits get boring, you get ...

- Fun, but not for very long.
I can see how some folks would enjoy a pure arcade version with no reality whatsoever involved.Myself, I think I'd like something more realistic.
First downs are 30 yards, there are no penalties, there's no kickoff, and there is no realism involved as far as athletic ability of the players.For example, if you complete a pass from Young to Rice (remember, this is 2000!), and Rice has the open field, two defenders are actually able to catch up to Rice and tackle him.This is flat out ...

I think that thisis one of the best football games I have ever played.It is fast paced, and a lot of fun.I usually don't like football games, but this one is awesome.
Rating: - BLITZ IS ALL RIGHT BUT......
this game is pretty fun.The graphics are decent, the sound is also above average.This game is at its best when 4 human players play in a 4 player multiplayer game.Games are always high scoring when playing with your friends.This game is a great game if you always have people who will play with you.But when playing alone this game sucks.Sure smacking the computer is fun a while, but theres no one to smack talk.The novelty of hard hits wears off fast.Also the no pass inerference rule ...
