Front Page Sports Football

**Update - 10/10/14** After starting a new league with the new patch and playing the 2 preseason games, I still feel that this game falls extremely short of the mark. Contrary to the patch notes, there is still no initial draft. Kick/punt return yardage is still incorrect. The game still doesn't feel like football, but more importantly, it's simply not fun. Getting through 2 preseason games felt like a chore (I might add that I've played through many, many seasons in FOF7 and PFS and loved every second of it). On the plus side, the new 3D camera angles are nice, but not nearly enough to make this game playable. Overall, I didn't really see anything changed in the patch to keep me interested. I really wanted to like this, but due to the fact that this game is still extremely tedious and non-immersive, my (non)recommendation has not changed. Currently 1.5 / 10 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I am a huge fan of bo...

I will come back and edit this review if the game improves, since I'm writing this on the first day of release. First of all, kudos to any developer and publisher who attempts to create an American football manager game - We are starving for such a game!!!!!!!!!! Sadly, the first impression of Front Page Sports Football is not good. Keep mind I'm writing this after only 10 minutes of gameplay. It's a "first impression" review. It's definitely an "Early Access" version with lots of work to be done. It needs about 6 months of work in my opinion before it's a 4 out of 5 star game. Currently, I give it 1 out of 5 stars. My first impression is that there's no obvious way to edit player names or team names other than your own team name. Many of the player names are odd and unusual names. I'm not hearing any sound. The simulated game is displayed in a tiny small window and has no camera angles to choose, it quickly goes to the next play without giving the ability to rewind or re-watch th...

I still have the Front page football 98. One reason that I loved that game was that you can customize players and ratings and everything in between. Thats what this game needs, is the ability to customize your players. Whats the point of creating a custom league if you can't change the players names and ratings. I only played game for a few minutes because my pc kept freezing up. Game needs more updates. when I finally got to the game (match) that I was to play. it froze. I am one who would like you to stick to the old game with much improved graphics. If it aint broke. I will continue to try to play game because I am a fan but opening for some updates real soon. want to recommend game very badly, but I don't think that it would be fare with the way the game stands today. update it fast, please!!! PS Game not freezing because I have a old computer I actually have a very good computer should have any problems.

I was super excited when i saw this coming was coming, now I wish I had wanted to read reviews. - No explanation - Poor user interface - no sound? at least not for me. - game stopped simulating for me afte a couple weeks. - FAQs are in general not useful - and the list goes on. I really hope this gets more work, the original was so well done that this is just nothing be disappointing at this point. I will change my review if the game is improved.

I really want to like this game and I hope it gets fixed but as it stands now it is unplayable. My teams games aren't actually played or simulated. It just says 'Planned' and is never played. The pre-season and first week every game played, the second week my game was the only one this way. The second week about 6 other games had the same problem and week three 4 other games were not played. So some teams have now played 4 games and I've only played one. Inability to play aside, this game needs work. It seems like a soccer fans version of a football sim. The free agent market has enough high quality rookies to build a team around (as best I can tell) including available red circle players who are suposed to be the best players in the game. Quality rookies are almost never available as free agents in the NFL, as they would all be drafted. There might be a few that slip through the draft, but it usually isn't easy to see who they might be until a clever team takes a flyer on them. Ther...

This was a scam. Steam should make them take this down and refund the money that was stole from us.

This thing's so bad that I really don't know where to start. Forget the glaring technical problems (fixed size UI in 2014... are you serious?), the football side of it is just plain bizarre. Go for it on fourth down? Nope. Have zone coverage schemes where the dbacks and linebackers actually attempt to cover receivers? Nope. Kicking options besides belting it straight down the middle? Nope. Have access to your whole playbook? Nope. Okay, so the latter has an element of realism to it, but not when you're facing third and long and most of the plays offered are runs. Take starters out the game once the result looks nailed on? Nope. Audibles? Not unless you count the player swearing at the game. Visible play clock whilst calling plays? Nah... that'd be far to sensible. Have play action plays somehow described as such? Nope. Okay, again, that might be somehow realistic, but draws are denoted as such, so why not the opposite? Forward progress? Nope. Challenge flags? Nope. Fumbles? Well, the...

As an avid Football Manager player and unlike other reviews, I find the game quite good for what it costs and the fact that there's no US Football game around. Sure, it needs some more polishment, some bug fixes, etc. But I find it really enjoyable for those tiny 15€. The game engine is decent (doesn't seem worse than Football Manager for example), the UI isn't that bad honestly. There's only 3 big problems that annoy me for the moment : - No way to speed up a match - Poor filter options when you're looking for new players - The window size... Kinda silly for a fullscreen mode. Even worst when you want to watch a game in 3D (I don't) I just hope that Cyanide plans on patching the annoying bugs somehow (some UI elements are poorly presented, I can't see the game in 3D because it's freezing like crazy, etc) and improve some little things that doesn't have to wait for a new iteration of the game (no way to control the 4th down.. Poor kick-off options, somes American Football rules ar...

Not as good as FPS 98 at all. Needs Abilities to build uniforms the way you want to, color wheel, fonts, stripes, helmets, facemasks, socks. Abilities to build your own roster or modify a current roster Abilities to modify all the teams in league (Logo, Fields, Uniforms, Coachs ect) Abilities to set league size and leage rules Abilities to select pre set league rules/sizes (ie CFL, AFL, NFL, NCAA, Highschool) These were the quickest things I was extremely disappointed with. Oh, also the first and foremost thing the game needs to not lock up and crash every time you try to advance a week. Another review talks about all the missing rules and other things that are messed up. I can even get to that poin in the game. Read the other reviews as well!

This Game is flat horrible!!!!!! Edit: I've coached football most of my adult life and I can assure you this is more arcade than sim. In a nut shell: It's unfinished, uninspiring, unfootball, unprofessional, uninteresting, unwatchable, unplayable, unfun. Has absolutely nothing to do with the Serra FPS football franchise of old! They used that name to lure suckers like me into giving them money. I mean it is nothing like it at all!! Anyone who has ever read my post on anything know that I'm a very postitive guy and try to encourage developers snd stsy as professional as I can. SO BELEIVE ME WHEN I TELL YOU THIS IS THE WORST GAME OF 2014. They should be sued for using the "Front Page Sports Football" title! Forgive my unprofessionalism here........IT SUCKS! ."STUUUPID AHMERICANS, WEE Have Yur MONEY, NO?," "Au revoir!" Edit: If they just would have left the "Front Page Sports" title out of the game people would have had a much better opinion of the game. There is a really deep ...
