Hundreds and hundreds of you have been asking for us to talk NFL Blitz, and seeing as it won our Patreon Poll, I guess it's time. I'd never played a Blitz before, so I was stoked to fire this up and see what it's all about!


I'll warn you right now. I like football. I watch it, I play Fantasy, I cheer for the Broncos (I know...). But I'm not the most knowledgeable football guy. I only got into the sport as an adult, and I have very little experience with football video games. That said, you could say the same for basketball, and I fucking LOVED NBA Jam. So I was hoping Blitz would hit me in the same way and I'd fall in love again. I'm not sure I'd go that far with Blitz, but friends with benefits is fine by me. This is a good time.


My guest Brad grew up playing the OG NFL Blitz cabinet, and I've spent the past couple weeks screaming at fumbles in NFL Blitz 2000 for the PlayStation. We put our heads together and drew up a play to talk about what makes this game so fun, what irritates us about it, and why it definitely needs to be played with another person.


And before a "random" fumble completely fucks us over, I put together another edition of the Infamous Intro!


This week, someone asks if I'd consider reviewing more bad games (intentionally). What's a better option for starting a kid out with retro gaming: Nintendo Switch Online or an NES Classic? And what CDs did we rip onto our Xbox and Xbox 360s back in the day?


Plus we play another round of 'Play One, Remake One, Erase One', too! This one features 3 Midway sports franchises: Ready 2 Rumble, NHL Hitz, and MLB Slugfest.
