Who needs the likes of Madden when there’s an SNK ‘classic’ available for all your American football needs? Well, if you prefer to go down the retro route, Football Frenzy has received a second chance in life as it’s been faithfully reproduced as part of the ever-growing ACA NEOGEO series.
Back in 1992, Football Frenzy was launched by SNK to provide realistic (at the time) games capturing the magic of American football in 2D. Players can go it alone, picking one of the ten fictional teams included, such as the Crushers, Rhinos and Wolves, to defeat other teams to ultimately claim the SNK Super Bowl. Due to the variety of formations present, it allows for a multitude of different patterns of play. Taking on the A.I. isn’t the only option either as a 1vs1 versus mode is present, which lets you take on your pals locally.
Should the retro vibes of ACA NEOGEO Football Frenzy entice you enough to add it to your Xbox One gaming library, it’s now available to purchase for £6.39 on the Microsoft Store. Is it the American football game you’ve been crying out for, or will you be sticking with the more modern offerings on the market?
