Best football game EVER

This game is awesom because it has no rules and it has a story and it's just plain good. I see so many people complaining that this game is to hard or the controls are bad. When I play it I'm disapointed when I don't win 157-0 if not better (is the game that hard or are you just that bad). I love the controls in this game I like them better than madden's. I find it more enjoyable to do a dirty hit and break their neck and give them hardcore painkillers like morphein and cortoson and they are back in the game the next play than hurting a guy in madden and he's done for his career. This is also the only football game I know that has a story in it which also puts this game head and shoulders above madden... did I mention you can use steroids too. It has LT ripping some guys thumb off ,man, what's better than that. the only problem I have is that the campain mode is too short. I HOPE TO GOD THAT THEY MAKE A SEGQUEL.

Fun But Too Much Bad Talking

If you are a fan of the Blitz series, then you will love this game as well. This game actually features a story and the graphics of the game are excellent. The game play is just as fun as all of the other Blitz games. Take the original game and add excellent graphics and you have this game which is great. Since the NFL wanted nothing to do with this game, every team on here is made up, and the team you play is one you make up. From the uniforms to the team name, you create the team.

The gameplay itself is really fun and the look is excellent. My only complaint about this game is everyone's complaint, they use too much bad language in this game. More than needed, which is none at all. If you ignore the strong words, this game comes off as really fun and a must have for fans of the Blitz.

Good Game, BAD Language

I bought this game for a friend and played it recently. It's a great football game, cool how the created teams are and such. The gameplay is pretty cool. The Clash thing is really cool, though I couldn't ever complete a pass with it (the WR kept moving WAY off).
My only bone to pick with this game is the trash talking. I understand trash talking and all, but this was pretty extreme. They said "mother f-" like crazy, along with other f-bombs, the sh-word, and other language. Even a little wouldn't have been too bad, but it's like every play almost! Definitely unnecessary.
That's why I only give it 3 stars overall.

All that for nothing

Very fun game to play (if you dont like getting anything accomplished). I spent many a night playing this game and enjoyed crushing people and causing many, many injuries. However it was a giant let down to find out that after all that hard work building a team you could only continue playing with it online. What a let down. Also to find out that we couldn't play career mode with 2 people. Another let down. So unless your into crushing the opponent with nothing to show for it. Save your money.

this game is so-so

I rented this game and first off the controls are hard to learn, someone drops an f-bomb almost every thirty seconds, and between each play theres a cut sceene which gets annoyin, but the dirty hits are kinda cool and i like when it shows the bone breakin. Overall i give this game 3 stars.

Not as good as Madden, BUT Hey its not madden!

This game is a very great idea, and I remember I loved the Blitz series. I havn't really played the other ones on the the systems, but this one looked good so I thought I would pick it up. To be honest the game is ..eh. its ok, nuthin great but its a different feeling than madden because I'm getting sick of playin by the rules.

The story-line is great and I love it. Your team basically sucks in the Blitz league so your head manager of the team decides to change everything , even the actual team. This is where you come in, you get to create your own team from picking between differnt starter players and even coaches and how you come about things. Then its your problem to win and as they say "at any cost!" Throughout the game you see cinematechs which is great because it keeps you entertained. I give the story-line a 5 out of 5.

The gameplay has a few problems but its alright. First off when you do a campaign before every game you can do a number of things. You can buy equipment for your players or enhance there abilities with drugs or check messages that people have sent you, like the coach and other players from different teams, and hey you can customize your cheerleading squad "cha-ching". Anyway on the field is were the problems start to occur. The gamepay is fast and fun and never slows down unless if you use the special power where you can slow time down and do specail moves like didging other players and run really fast. There is a prroblem with this however, the opposiong team uses it just as much as you do and you'll find them catching a kick-off and using the slow motin power and dodgin all your men and they just run straight down for a touchdown and there is merely nothing oyu can do because you cant tackle them once they are in it, but you find yourself getting tackled when you use it. The game does get frustrating but I love how the injuries work in the game. Once you injure say and opponent it will slow down time and show the opponents insides where you are causing the injury and you see a bone break or a tissue tear. Then, say its your man getting hurt, oyu can choose to juice him, which is basically giving him drugs to not feel the pain which can cause his injury to get worse but it never does, or you can choose to treat him. Another cool thing is that you can do dirty hits where you will perform say a back suplex or rip off his helmet and hit him with it and once you do enough to another team you can have a brawl. This gives you the chance to fight your opponents. I would have liked to seen an actual physical fight mini game but you can only run and tackle the guy and perform dirty hits. Still its awsome. Once yuo advance far in the game it gets amazingly hard though. The teams are like top notch and your team is still the same as it was in the beginning so its basically skill you need. There is another cool thing in the campaign. Right before you verse a team it shows a little clip of there best player and a man talks about him. Its so cool. It will show say a wide reciever and a guy talking will be like "dont let this guy touch the ball cause when he does, things happen." And it will show the guy jumping and catching the football and sometimes tackling guys and talking trash. Its a cool little thing. ITs a good game experience and its a much differnt gameplay from madden which is good because its something different and cool. I give the gameplay a 4 out of 5

The graphics are good. You know, normal graphics of this time, nothing amazing nothing bad. Not much to say. The fields look great and so do the players. I would give it a 3 out of 5.

Theres not much to say about the sound, and the controls are good and are eaasy to get into. It does feel a little wierd from always have your hands used to madden contrls but you get used to it after a while.

I defenitely recommend this game, just because it is different than most football games and gives a cool no rules and brawl element. Its a good thing to keep in your game library if you're a football gamer because once you've had enough playing by the rules in madden you can brawl it up in Blitz. I tell you another thing too, its a great game to take out your anger.

To the people who rate this game bad.

Everyone who says "they get too many interseptions and points" just stink. Once you learn how to use the clash system, you shouldnt throw too many interseptions, and if you learn how to do defence you should be fine as well. I'm not saying there will be no challange, this is a good game that will actually put up a fight, but you shouldnt get blown out every game, you may lose some close ones though. Over all this is a very tight game if you put a lot of effort into it(ex. training every player from the start) and taking your teams online. The story is pretty cool as well. I say, get this over Madden 06 any day, Madden is old and repetetive. Blitz: The League is something new and more fun.

Better luck next time

I was a big fan of the older Blitz games. They were a diversion from Madden and other football games that I enjoyed. But Blitz: The League is a example of a good game gone wrong.
First off, the AI is cheap. Don't worry about blowing out a team, because once your up by 10 points or more you will fumble or throw interceptions without fail.
Second. The smack talk and story line get old real quick. Its funny and cool the first two or three times you hear it, but after a while you end up skiping them.
Third. Don't try to be strategic on offense or defense. You can't see enough field to see where all your reicievers are so a lot of times you end up throwing the ball blindly because your about to get sacked two seconds after you hike the ball.
Fourth. The kicking in this game is stupid. You have to press the buttons on the screen that pop up in a timely manner in order to kick a field goal or kickoff the ball. If I wanted to do this I would play Dance Dance Revolution with a controller.
The bottom line is rent it if you want to try it out. But if you already have anger issues and you get frustrated with cheating AI you might want to invest in a couple new controllers before you play this, as you will be hucking the ones you have at the T.V. in deep frustration.
Better luck next time Midway.

AN AMAZING FOOTBALL GAME

DO NOT READ THIS IF U DIDNT ENJOY THE ORINGINAL BLITZ GAMES...if u did enjoy the original blitz games keep reading. This game is nothing like madden so dont expect it to be. The best part of this game is the dirty hits and u can injur the player (u can actually c the bone breaking). The controls are somewhat hard to learn, but when u learn them its soooo much fun. Defintally buy this game if u like the original blitz (only difference is the injurys, steroids, and a whole lot more cursing/insulting). The campaign mode is a lot of fun too. You get to pick the city, name, and uniform of the team u create

BEST F***ING GAME EVER MADE!!!!!!!!!!!

This game is the best game ever made. Everyone is complaining about how you have to start with a crappy team and it is impossible to beat the teams. Well, that is the fun part about the game. It doesn't get old an boreing like madden or ncaa, This game keeps your interest with the bone crushing hits, crude celebrations, "escorts" to tire out your opponents before a game, and vulgar language.

Blitz the leauge is simply the Best football game ever made.
