Publisher: Sega of America
Released: 1987
Great Football is an American Football game that was also released as Sports Pad Football (1987, Sega Master System).
+ 12 fictional teams are selectable, the speech clips are fairly good quality, and the passing game is intuitive.+ Multiplayer option allows you to experience the full game, which includes playing both sides of the ball.
- In 1-Player mode, you cannot play defense and instead start offense in the 4th quarter with a big point deficit.
- Selecting a play means waiting for the game to slowly cycle through all 8-9 formations before you can proceed.
- Running game is exploitable, as the defense often refuses to move until you're a few yards passed the line of scrimmage!
- If the CPU blitz, they'll plough through your Offensive Line in less than a second for an unavoidable QB sack.
- No customisation options for quarter length or computer difficulty, and the crowd SFX are horribly distorted.
