PSM3 Magazine UKThis is one tour that should definitely have been cancelled. [Apr 2008, p.82]
-
Not only has NFL Tour dropped the ball, it's completely taken the air out of the old NFL Street series entirely. The tricks, attitude and character that made its predecessors enjoyable is lost in favor of unbalanced play, missing incentives to progress through a bland tour, and a horrible presentation.
-
I hear the theme from Gilligan’s Island. I don’t know where it’s coming from, but the words are distinct – “A three-hour tour. A three-hour tour.” Once those hours have passed, you’ll be glad you’re not trapped on an island with this game.
-
NFL Tour does play an exciting and fun game of arcade football, but in the end it feels as if it was meant for a stand up arcade machine rather than in the home.
-
So, NFL Tour is a $40 mess for the Xbox 360 and PS3.
-
Sure, the online functions decently, but it's merely allowing thousands of gamers with buyer's remorse to play a mediocre game.
-
This is one of the worst football games I've ever played. If you crave arcade action football, go pick up one of the original NFL Street games.
-
NFL Tour has its fun moments, but the gameplay is just so damn shallow.

Playstation Official Magazine UKThe only redeemeing feature is that you don't have to deal with the AI's incompetence as much when playing against a mate. [Apr 2008, p.104]
-
Electronic Gaming MonthlyNFL Tour's last-team-with-the-ball-wins emphasis on offense deflates whatever air this pigskin had left in it. [Feb 2008, p.76]
-
Budget buyers, beware: This half-assed rebranding and rethinking of the NFL Street series is one of the limpest sports experiences I've played in years. NFL Tour is shockingly inorganic, severely underdeveloped, and thoroughly limited.
-
NFL Tour is not a good game, simple as that. The NFL Street franchise had enough good elements for the developers to come up with an entertaining game. NFL Tour, however, fails in this. If you don't like American Football, ignore this game. If you do like American Football, ignore this game extra hard. This sport deserves a better treatment.

Playstation: The Official Magazine (US)Take our advice, vote with your dollars and buy a used copy of "NFL Street 2" instead. [Apr 2008, p.76]
-
NFL Tour isn’t just bad. It’s other-worldy bad...It was my hope that in this case less would be more, but unfortunately less is less. We are left with a completely boring and terrible game that I think could be justification for the NFL to revoke the license.
