I've been trying all day and I would have tied it up except the computer matched my play 4 straight times in the fourth quarter and I turned the ball over. Are you going to go for 119 anyway? Probably not. Schools just got shut down, grocery stores have empty shelves, and too many people doing crazy things. Wait...maybe I will have time.

I looked into SF offense a lot and it's actually not too difficult to get passes off even when the computer matches your play. I've found that throwing it to Craig right after he changes direction is pretty consistent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was the end of the fourth quarter and I needed a touchdown so I was pretty much out of luck at that point. It was a lousy way to end the best game I had all day.

You couldn't release a sports game today with such limited features and play selection (at least not a modern one). I love the "challenge" of out-thinking the computer with play picks (albeit insanely simple) and just making them screw up! I've also always loved how the bodies fly when you pick the same play. The players flying through the air makes me the players flying through the air like a bomb went off cracks me up. i was thinking the same thing about the simplicity. i actually enjoy playing tecmo bowl. for some reason im not as interested in super tecmo bowl does anybody else try to make the ball land as close to the posts as possible while still making the extra point? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't really try to make it as close as possible, but I never go full power. I definitely kick it before some groper gets all handsy (like @SuperJimtendo with my buttons) and blocks me 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I almost got it that game, but I only had time for one play, and they matched my call. I may play some more. I still think 119 is doable. I think I'm done. I finally hit 112, but you still have me beat on the tiebreaker. Good luck if you decide to go for 119! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
docile tapeworm | 4,198 Posted March 15, 2020 Share Posted March 15, 2020 (edited) skinnys saturday reflections its the end of week two in the 2020 vgs weekly contest. lots of two hand touch was played without pads. the rainbow kid and all his partners, unsurprisingly went to san fransisco with flowers in their hair, proudly toting strawberry drinks in hand. it was a festival if you will. two of the members from team tie die scored the most on each other. over and over they scored. only four contestants used teams other than the fabulous 49'ets. the fish guy used a team that must feel betrayed by the "colorado crew". even the father of the rainbow child (who has met and groveled before the mighty qb) turned his back on the mile high horses. ausden the whitesox fan from north carolina used the chicago bears for a good score time. and a party. im out of thoughts. the newly defeated kung fu former champ decided to use the ny football giants and he did ok. the mightest of players who got his score of 84 without throwing a single pass, using the same exact play 100% of the time and exclusively bo jackson.... put up a hell of a performance and probably would win this week considering style of play and creativity. the kanadian picaso who accused the goat of copy cat soon found himself replicating the worms incredible gameplay in order to MUSTAAARD! a mad watch... lots of fun this week between contestants. sandafloor used his phone. where is @789bit? where is @chairy? where is ti-83? where is gutsman? where is murray? mike only cares about rolling the score in kung fu and flipping cookies. ninji ensures me that guy is indeed from smb2.

TWarwick07 | 122 Posted March 15, 2020 Share Posted March 15, 2020 Way to go Skinny !! taking over the old commander santa recap role. Keep it up brother !! Your score with the raiders is admirable, I was thinking that next time this version of tecmo bowl comes around a better contest would be the same scoring rules but have everyone use one of the bottom teir teams like minnesota or indianapolis or cleaveland to give more challenge to stop the cpu on defense and a harder time scoring on offense. I would be interested to hear what other players think about this idea?? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0xDEAFC0DE | 1,277 Posted March 15, 2020 Share Posted March 15, 2020 Alright, I got a pretty good game (updated on page 5), so I think I'm done for the week. Looks like it's just barely good enough for 3rd place so far and it beat my goal of 84 points. I've never been one for sports games, but I actually enjoyed this one. Probably because of the simplicity. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
