Backyard Football Critic Reviews

The peppy game exudes plenty of personality, and young fans will love the smart game play.

Granted, some of the three-dimensional effects are very nice, but at times, the game looks like a title in the Lego series, and not the carefree, cartoonish game that has become so enjoyable.

Fun for a goof for adults, and a kid will eat this up.

Although Backyard Football may work for a seven-year-old, few others would get much enjoyment from it. Lacking serious refinement in most areas, the “cute” style of gameplay wears off quickly and leaves few reasons to come back.

The neat-o character design doesn't make up for the blah textures and overly simple (to the point of boring) gameplay.
