Taking a huge step back from the larger philosophical dissections and discussions that SMT 1 and 2 partake in, IF has a much smaller story set in a high school. It took me 32 or so hours to play through Reiko's route (the longest and most complete of the three available at the start) on the Switch Online SFC service using copious save states, rewinds, and online maps (because hoooo boy, is this game a doozy).

That said, it nonetheless manages to both stand apart from its predecessors as well as pave a brave new direction for the series that would end up defining SMT for the next five big games Atlus made (all the way until SMT 3, basically).

However, if you are looking for a not too complex College Football game on the Genesis that is easy to get into, this is a fairly great one and highly recommended.ġ. I don't think this game will change anybody's mind when it comes to College Football or even Sports Games. I had a few days off, so I was looking for a quick beat before I got back into my normal schedule of gaming and this worked out perfectly. Overall, I still really enjoyed my time with College Football's National Championship. The game felt a little too easy at times as I was returning punts for touchdowns three times in a row, but I have sunk many hours into the game and that might be the cause. You don't get burned because you don't know the minutia of College Football. The game play is a mixture of the Madden games, but is still pretty easy to pick up and play. I also like the ability to make your own schedule as you can play against who you want and where you want as well. I love playing Nebraska as they have an Option play that is not used in the Pros, so its great to use it hear. Being an earlier version, there are some features and teams that are missing, but it still holds the fantastic game play of the original. College Football's National Championship fit that to a tee. However, once a year or so, I get an urge to relive my childhood through nostalgia and play an 8 or 16 bit sports game. I only like a specific kind as I grew out of them once Madden and the simulations took over. It is funny, but sports games have become like a hidden secret for me. So, last year, I was looking for a quick Genesis to play and nothing is quicker than a sports game. Throughout all of this, I never picked up the original. I played it as well, but it was mostly his game and became one of the last video game he's ever played. One of my older brothers loves College Football, so I remember buying College Football National's Championship for Genesis for him specifically. I mostly played the other ones, but I eventually gravitated to the sports titles. They are huge sports fan, especially as kids, so most of our games growing up were sports titles. I played the original Legend of Zelda on one of their copies. My first video game memory was playing Pitfall on one of their Atari 2600's. I have older brothers and that is how I got my start with video games. I completed College Football's National Championship for the Sega Genesis this evening!
