It's still fun to play, especially when you play online. Overall, though, this Tour will leave you less than thrilled.
-
The wacky gameplay, broken tackles, and cheating computer may get the best of you. On the other hand, those of you that are arcade buffs or are particularly good at sports games should love it.
-
NFL Tour would have made a great arcade game, but as a console game, it's simply too shallow to hold your interest for long.
-
Game InformerEA should be ashamed that it’s trying to bilk some kid out of $50 while offering so little in return. I can understand simplifying the controller in an otherwise button-heavy sport, but that doesn’t mean the gameplay itself has to become uninspiring and so lacking. [Feb 2008, p.96]
-
The gameplay is easily accessible and fun. There may not be a tremendous amount of depth, but the fun factor is there and that matters. The audio is poorly done, and it tends to hamper the overall presentation - luckily you can turn it off.
-
There's not nearly enough meat on its bones to warrant a stand-alone game, even mercifully priced $20 less than most new next-gen releases. Frankly, it belongs as a mini-game in Madden.
-
NLF Tour keeps its feet grounded in believability while taking a more arcade style approach. To boil it down, Tour is a happy medium between Madden and NLF Blitz.
-
NFL Tour is all fluff and no substance.
-
Unfortunately for fans of EA's NFL Street series, your option this year is a relatively thinned out, shallow arcade football game.
-
But it lacks depth and creativity.
