  1. The Monday after Burning Mort is always a great disappointment. When will BM finally be recognized as the national holiday it deserves to be? Fuck it. Here's some pics.

  3. Ya playing the computer vs playing a human is MASSIVE difference.in tecmo The computer doesn't improvise at all when running the ball. And its passing and playcalling is simplistic. An elite player will kill you in the pass game if you try and run in with Singletary to blitz and you are sitting on run 3. It's hard to explain without getting super in depth into it. The analysis below is also simplistic. ROLB is good for defeating a few runs. (The iform run 1 toss down, and run 4 up the middle. Again they are more effective if you cna out-tap) RILB can be used to stop the run 2 sweep down if you can outtap and are good at avoiding blockers. Alsogood at defeating the pro T sweeps up and down but they go unblocked thru the line so unless the player on offense can outtap the player on defense they won't even bother putting the plays in. LILB similar but can also be used for bumping the OL on the WR motion run 1 and run 2 plays. However this a a risk reward play. LiLB can also defeat the R&S sweep up top but you have to guess that is coming so this is not great. LOLB good for diving the up the middle runs for a loss. They have to be a 38 44 lb at minimum but that will be very successful. Good for stopping the single back sweep up as they can avoid the blockers. Good for trying to limit the WR motion sweeps by grappling with the OL immediately. The player then has to reverse field (definitely doable with a fast rb) or they can try to outtap you. So people will use lbs if 1. Its by far the fastest player on their team. Somtetimes you may want to man a much slower player in obvious end of game pass situations. 2. The LB (can be used essentially as a nickel back thats wont take away from the pass coverage. OLB's are better since they pass rush on almost all plays. 3. They think a run play is coming and its their best option for defeating it.

  4. Okay, buckle up, this is a weird one. I was looking at the faces with short hair when I was doing the Bald Guys post, and of course I came across these three faces. I know this is probably common knowledge at this point, but I had completely forgotten that they also got Johnny Johnson's race wrong. But then it gets interesting. First, here's the faces and photos of Johnson and Andre Rison: Face=0x3c Face=0x3d Face=0xd3 JETS RG dave CADIGAN Face=0x3d #66 25 69 31 50 PHX. RB1 johnny JOHNSON Face=0x3d #39 38 69 50 38 50 38 [7 3 6 2 ] ATL. WR2 andre RISON Face=0xd3 #80 44 69 63 13 50 75 [1 9 9 12 ] Now, Face 3C is not used for any player, but it is identical to Face 3D. I feel it's also worth noting that it would be easy to mistype D3 as 3D, so maybe Face 3D was only intended for Dave Cadigan. Except that's also a mistake, because Dave Cadigan looks nothing like that face: but he does look a lot like this face: which happens to be Face 1D, making 3D a potential typo again. This means that both Face 3C and 3D do not represent any real players on the original rom. (Nobody tell Tailback King about any of this, he's full of enough conspiracies)

  5. The Bald Guys Seeing Bald Bo reminded me of these faces again. There are a number of Tecmo faces that appear to have very short hair or are balding, but only three faces are completely bald/shaved without a pixel of hair. Photos are Mark Murphy, Greg Townsend, Ottis Anderson, and Ronnie Harmon. Anderson started shaving his head when he joined the Giants, but I couldn't find a photo of him completely bald from his playing days, so this one is from 1997. Harmon has stubble here, too, but fuck it, close enough: G.B. SS mark MURPHY Face=0x37 #37 25 31 44 44 50 38 [9 71 ] MIA. RG harry GALBREATH Face=0x93 #62 25 69 38 63 PIT.

  6. I always thought it was funny that Bo Jackson was essentially the face of the game, and they didn't even give him his own face. Did they think Montana was going to carry the game for 25 years? Noobs want to be Bo. Photos are Bo, and lookalikes Joe Kelly (in his lone season as a Raider in 1993, everyone becomes a Raider when they get older) and Floyd Turner. Below that is that Tecmo Bo commercial with Brian Bosworth. Bosworth was not actually in Tecmo Super Bowl, but he was in Tecmo Bowl. That's a modified rom in the commercial ? BUF.

  7. Face=0x4f is used for 7 players, but I always think of it as the Howie Long face since he's one of my favorite players. Photos are of him, Trace Armstrong, and Bill Romanowski. All three of them are with my Raiders in these photos. I don't remember Romanowski ever looking that badass when he was on the 49ers. I'm just saying. HOU.

  9. I feel like we should clarify that even the mandatory items are optional, just more of a suggestion for comfort. You can easily survive a weekend without food, water, or shelter.
