I have loved this game since I was a kid with an Xbox 360. Too bad not to make this game anymore. If they're remastered, this game will probably make a lot of money.
My dad and I play Blitz: League one and two. I like the story kindly, Mortal Kombat and football. I wish they remastered the game or made a new one. I lost my stuff from the fire.
I remember having Blitz: The League II Xbox 360. If all of you have never played this, you missed out on the fun of hell to bad midway out business probably don't get Blitz: The League IIl
I am really surprised that this game has such a bad user score (6.7 at time of writing). I love this game. It is hilarious and very satisfying to play. I have a much better time playing this exaggerated version of football than playing madden, and breaking bones and causing injuries is super satisfying lol.

Blitz the League II not exactly the most hyped of games but still this is my review and take on it. Basically, it's over the top in your face football which isn't necessarily bad in fact commendable. The music definitely does suit the genre and at times feels badass. There are injuries all over the place and that's a key mechanic of the game. There are girls, numerous clubs, steroids (of course). Probably the coolest part of the game is probably the injury mechanics it's really quite fun and it's a mechanic other football games explore cough, cough Madden. A big problem with Blitz the League II is that if feels almost exactly the same as the First Blitz the league. My recommendation if you're interested rent it split the cost with a ****'s not likely though to be making a comeback at all.
This game was designed very well and is a significant improvement over its predecessor. Unfortunately, you can tell that this was a very low budget operation.nn
What started out as a serious football title before EA bought the rights to football is a fun and crazy game to pick up for anyone even if you don't like football. I really enjoyed this game a lot. had a lot of fun with it. The graphics are good for the year it was released. I didn't really like the story, but it added a cherry to what was already perfect in its own way. I'm hoping they will release another one.
Always been a fan of sports movies and this game is like a sports movie. Man, I want more of these! Like a game with the characters of Blue Mountain State or something. There are not too many story-based sports games in the world!
I had never played this game before. I saw this YouTube looking fun ngl only problem. I don't have an Xbox 360 or PS3. Then I saw GOG brought back Og. I hope they are released.
Once of the most unique interpretations of football in a video game format. This game even 20 years later still holds up as a fun and top tier football game that is refreshing compared to the revisions of other football games year after year. The game mechanics are simple and fun. The play calling is biased towards long passing and big hits which some fun animations to inflict more injuries or escapes that allow for huge plays to take place The campaign is fun, the cut scenes could have used more work but with a game like this it mostly comes down to gameplay. There are definitely improvements that can be made there or with play calling menu that doesn't allow for a full time to pick plays overall this game is definitely worth to revisit even in 2025. the graphics are still good for its era, and the gameplay itself will have you wanting to play one more down each time.

Newman/Haas Racing
Newman/Haas RacingNewman/Haas presents racing in its purest form - no power-ups, shortcuts, or weapons here - and playing it requires equal parts patience, skill, and raw endurance. Those looking for an authentic Indy Car experience are in luck, as this is a game of remarkable depth and customizability. It offers a mind-boggling array of options - digital or analog control, single- or dual-player racing, four levels of difficulty, eleven tracks, 16 drivers, and a partridge in the pit stop. OK, I'm kidding about the last item, but it's obvious that Psygnosis doesn't think Indy Car racing is a laughing matter, and it's gone to great lengths to make Newman/Haas as realistic as possible.
