I always liked Iron Head. Used to be a big Falcon fan back in the 90s as well.

My roommate used to control the Saints every so often. I think thats where Heyward played at the time. He'd be throwing guys off left and right with Iron Head. He'd get to about the 5 on a TD run, then turn around and find 2 more guys to bull over before scoring.

Man, what a game.

Heres a question. How many Tecmo Bowls have you won???

I've won 4. Won back to back once and the game messed up when trying for a 3-peat.

I never use the good teams, so I'm sure I could win a lot more with teams like Bills, Niners, etc.

I won titles with Falcons, Dolphins, Rams, and Saints. I guess the Dolphins were pretty good. Other than that, never used a good team.

yeah, he was a fucking beast in that game, could throw off everyone.


and Bob Fucking Nelson on Def was retarded, could just dive arcoss the line and sck you everytime.


That game was so fucking stupid but yet fun at times

5/28/2006 6:23:01 PM

okay look

its Tecmo Super Bowl

and that motherfucker was NOT the greatest

not even on offense

but hey

*liquor*

5/28/2006 7:00:13 PM

^ yeah, for starters, Okoye was pretty badass too


and you could pick any team's NT (they all ran a 3-4 on this game) and hold the controller down + toward the line of scrimmage, then dive like half a second after the ball was snapped. good for a sack 99% of the time when the QB was under center.



rip ironhead

5/28/2006 7:25:29 PM

I dont know.. I had pretty damn good luck with Ironhead, he was a beast. And I know you could do that with just about any D-lineman, but Nelson was retardedly fast

Bo Jackson's not dead.

5/28/2006 11:49:20 PM

i thought this would be bo, i was about to be sad

5/28/2006 11:53:46 PM

bo jackson retired before Tecmo Super Bowl was released

5/29/2006 10:05:21 PM

yup

and Okoye was actually the guy i had in mind

plus then you had DT on defense

5/30/2006 12:09:27 AM

the saints had the fearsome foursome

the dome patrol

swamp dogs

and turnbull/martin on the line

5/30/2006 12:34:12 AM

Oh Shit, I thought Bo Jackson Died

5/30/2006 12:42:07 AM

how ironic that Ironhead dies of a brain tumor

5/30/2006 12:55:49 AM

^ very ironic indeed old chap... how did you do at the races today

"3. Bo Jackson Bo is a great video game athlete. He is the fastest player in both Tecmo Bowl and Tecmo Super Bowl. He would do things that are just super human in those games. What puts him so high is beyond what he did on the digital gridiron. Bo Jackson is known more for his Tecmo Bowl prowess than he is as a real football player. People have more memories running circles around their friends with Bo than they do of him running 90+ yards for the touchdown. His real life stats don't speak to the memories he gave to old school gamers everywhere. "

"epinions"


and that guy is a fool, claiming that Okoye "isn't as well known"

The best player on Tecmo Super Bowl was hands down, Thurman Thomas. Run the play action to him, unstoppable.

5/30/2006 3:55:29 PM

heyward is not even fucking close to being the best player on his side of the ball

5/30/2006 4:01:00 PM

he was the fucking man, couldnt bring him down. I wasnt a pussy who used all the badass teams, I usually tried to use the shitty teams...

5/30/2006 4:48:00 PM

he wasn't even the best player on that team... Deion Sanders was just ridiculous

5/30/2006 5:06:15 PM

^ he was on the Saints then if I remember correctly

5/30/2006 5:12:07 PM

my bad, all this falcons talk had me screwed up...

5/30/2006 5:37:05 PM

heywards not even the best player on the NO techmo roster, i present to you...


morton anderson


plus, just off the top of my head
thurman thomas
bo jackson
marcus allen
albert bently
e smith
brooks
barry sanders
ernest byner
are all way fucking better than heyward as just running backs, as to the best tecmo bowl player, my money is on lawrence taylor

[Edited on May 30, 2006 at 5:56 PM. Reason : plus]

5/30/2006 5:47:55 PM

like I said, I had balls when I played. i used shitty teams, he was unstoppable

5/30/2006 6:11:14 PM

Get in the ring motherfuckers, er, I mean, on the field, Ironhead will fucking run all over you bitches

5/30/2006 6:15:03 PM

Who are all these people saying Bo Jackson wasn't in TSB? It was released in 1991, he didn't get injuried till that season.

5/30/2006 6:25:59 PM

^ I thought I remember him being badass on there as well, but wasn't sure.


I'm about 99% sure he was in TSB. I remember he, Lawrence Taylor, Bruce Smith, and Okoye were all completely unstoppable

5/30/2006 6:33:02 PM

When I saw this thread I thought Eric Dickerson had died.

It took way too long for someone to mention LT, the greatest video game villain of all time.

7/25/2006 11:07:44 PM

Pythagoras died in 507 BC

[Edited on July 25, 2006 at 11:24 PM. Reason : i think i just won this]

7/25/2006 11:16:46 PM

^^^ bttt

7/31/2006 1:05:07 AM

have they released Super Tecmo Bowl on say a classic compilation of games disc for the PS2 or XBox?

7/31/2006 2:08:27 AM

I hope not. The last thing I need to be doing is playing Tecmo Super Bowl for four hours a day on a giant TV.

kevin mack (browns) was tougher to bring down than Ironhead. Dude was pretty fast too.

7/31/2006 11:24:16 AM

But can he do this:

7/31/2006 12:36:08 PM

bo knew tecmo

7/31/2006 12:38:31 PM

^^^^ Holy damn that was a ridiculous run.

7/31/2006 2:04:17 PM

shit, the marching band should play the Super Tecmo Bowl song! i forgot how awesome that song is. it'd be sweet to hear it after say a huge run by Brown or Baker.
