DONT BOTHER READING THIS

Advantages: great game play even for a video idiot like me
Disadvantages: I always get beat

...this game. In other words, NFL Blitz 2000 is a great time waiting to happen. Obviously to be the ideal player for one of these games, you've got to at least like and understand American Football - but even if you dont you can enjoy the game for what it is - a very realistic version of a rough tough game. The most important criteria for any sport video game is the ability of the player's skill to come right through the control pad. If I practice ...
...person new to the game. NFL Blitz 2000 fits this pattern, and fits it well. Player controls are excellent, allowing quick dashes, spins, straight arms and leaps, anything and everything you need to avoid and even bewilder your opponent. The game doesn't do any of this for you however, you need skills to compete and that is how it should be. If you get too clever and the opposing team takes you down, you may commit so many turnovers that your own ...

UEFA Nightmare Soccer

Advantages: it works. (my copy anyway, can't guarantee that)
Disadvantages: it works. (big disadvantage, as it turns out)

...System, Presentation and Layout UEFA Dream Soccer’s menus are nicely laid out in rotatey-3D style, and are pretty self-explanatory. However, that does not mean to say that they are necessarily simple to navigate. For example, you would expect there to be a ‘game options’ choice from the main menu, like every other game ever made, but to find it you have to first select the type of game you want (Arcade or Traditional), and then ...
...list of options you can change (difficulty, game length, referee leniency etc.) and at this point the 3D menu really fails. What is required is a basic list of all the options that can be changed, which would make things much more simple and harder to get lost in the menu structure. In fact, I intended to make a sour remark about the lack of a 60Hz display option, like most Dreamcast games include, but this morning managed to find it somewhere in ...

Review of UEFA Dream Soccer (Dreamcast)

Very good value

Advantages: cheap
Disadvantages: lacks invention

NBA Showtime is an excellent arcade basketball game. However, it"s flaws are clearly because of complete laziness on the part of the Midway development team. They absolutely put NO time into making it a better game. They just ported it over. There are NO ROOKIES! No E.Brand, no Lamar Odom and NO Steve Francis! How pathetic! If they weren"t going to spend any time making it better, they should have brought it out on the day the dreamcast was released! ...

Virtua Tennis

Advantages: Great Game with great graphics !
Disadvantages: Non

Virtua Tennis is a great game and has loads of different modes/levels to play on. The game is also quiet simple to play as all you need to mainly use are two buttons. The graphics are excellent, sound is crisp and the attention to detail makes the game even more enjoyable. The amount of real life sceanrios bought into the game is excellent, i.e playing on clay is a slow as compared to grass which is a much faster surface, this is taken into consideration ...
...from a number of professional tennis players to play as including Great Britains,Tim Henman. There is also a world circuit mode where you have to complete a number of various training games to unlock other ones you also earn "money" by completing these training games, with this "money" you can buy new kits,energy drinks and new strings foryour racket. I think the best thing about this game that you dont have to be a tennis fan to enjoy playing ...
