 Great for Kids November 7, 2007

I have Never played this game but if you ask my 9 year old it's the best game he has ever played!!
My son only plays sport video games from baseball to bowling. His most favorite game was Madden Football, but then I bought this Back Yard football and he plays it all the time now.
He told me it's so much Easier then Madden, with this game he his able to Win alot. Where with Madden he would struggle to get to superbowls with his favorite teams, for kids usually with Madden you have to play only super bowl winners to get to super bowl. But with Backyard Football he can be any team and get to supper bowls. Also he likes that he can make up his own team; sort of like Fantasy Football pick all the best players.
He likes the game so much for christmas he asked if he could have the older 2007 & 2006 Back Yard Football and all Back Yard Baseball!! Unfortunately one draw back of the Wii, they don't make the older games for Wii but we also own a PS2 and can get all the older games.
 Good grief! October 28, 2007

I purchased this title mainly due to my enthusiasm for MLB Power Pros - I was hoping that this would be the football version of it. Boy was I wrong.
While the controls and plays are a lot easier than Madden 07/08 for a casual football fan to get a good grasp of, the graphics are so atrocious, I will venture to say that this is possibly the worst looking game for the Wii right next to Far Cry Vengeance.
The instruction manual is basically a waste of time. They should have saved a few trees and just skipped the manual altogether.
But the absolute worst thing about this game is the OUTRAGEOUSLY ANNOYING voices of the children screaming at you to pick them for your team. Instead of taking my time to methodically pick a team that I thought would work well, I just picked the first kids on the list in order to shut up the hideous chatter.
MLB Power Pros is proof positive that great sports titles can be made for the Wii. However, Backyard Football is proof positive that if you love football, you'll be waiting a while longer for the great FOOTBALL game for the Wii to come along.
