Ah that video made me laugh so hard I had tears in my eyes. Running it back to the other side of the field was a great way to add insult to injury. Tecmo Bowl without the Bo just doesn't feel right. Let's hope for an unlockable character named Slow Hackson at least. We'll, we still have Pro Stars. It's all about helping kids.

So many good times with this game. So many absurd plays. I always played as my beloved 49ers, completing absurd 100+ yard passes from Montana to Rice.

TSB is fucking gold to begin with. All they need to do is spruce up the graphics a bit, add online play and voice chat, and butcher the names. As long as the teams play as I remember from back in '92, I can die a happy man.
