This was an all out brawl. A knock-em-down-drag-em-out street fight between two pigskin titans. When the dust cleared, only one football video game was standing. Tecmo Bowl. How did the grizzled veteran survive? Because this isn’t about endorsements, or contract holdouts, or Sharpies, or doing sit-ups while holding interviews in your driveway. It’s not even about graphics, or wireless controllers, or playing online instead of actually going over to your friend’s house. It’s about sitting two feet from the screen for hours, packing in basements and dens and dorms with your friends, about blowing on the cartridge because it overheated in the middle of your playoff game. It’s about football, man.
