Anyone looking for a fun, arcade alternative to Madden should look no further, this is it. The gameplay is innovative and fun, the graphics are good for the most part, and the audio is brilliant. Now if you will excuse me, I'm off to break more bones.

It’s not as deep as Madden, by design; Blitz: The League II is an action game wearing pigskin, tucked inside a salacious sports soap-opera with a sick sense of humor. But ultimately, it’s the accessible gameplay that makes Blitz a pleasure — guilty as charged.

Always been a fan of sports movies and this game is like a sports movie. Man, I want more of these! Like a game with the characters of Blue Mountain State or something. There are not too many story based sports games in the world!

this game will blow you away it's so fun and so great and so violent if you don't like it you're probably ugly as hell and named Zach Scanlon or something heh

A substantial improvement over the original game. It’s very fun to play and although you’ll probably finish campaign mode in a day or two, there’s enough online replay value to get you through the season.
71
Overall, Blitz: The League II suffers from terrible announcers, annoying soundtracks and a boring campaign mode.

Sadly, the lack of replay value, and plethora of better games makes this nothing more than a rental for a weekend when your local football franchise is on a bye week. There’s potential to capitalize on, but I’m not so sure even with improved gameplay if this game could ever be a day one purchase.

While the campaign is really good fun and the brutal tackles are definitely a highlight, the graphics are really poor and the gameplay is too shallow to make a lasting impact.

A terrible football game with some good ideas surrounding it, and a marked tendency to make me wish I wasn’t playing it. If you enjoy football games, stick to Madden; Blitz is not a serious competitor, unless you enjoy getting a bit squeamish.

great game so much fun madden **** gg No, but seriously, this game is all I could ever want out of a sports game. You make your main captain a goddamn superhero on both lines, and just run at each other doing crazy-ass **** If I wanted to play real sports, I'd go outside or turn on the TV. None of this Madden or FIFA garbage for me, seriously, this **** is cash 8/8 dank af

What started out as a serious football title before EA bought the rights to football is a fun and crazy game to pick up for anyone even if you dont like football. I really enjoyed this game alot. had alot of fun with it. The graphics are good for the year it was released. I didnt really like the story but it added a cherrr to what was already perfect in its own way. I'm hoping they will release another one.

Once of the most unique interpretations of football in a video game format. This game even 20 years later still holds up as a fun and top tier football game that is refreshing compared to the revisions of other football games year after year. The game mechanics are simple and fun. The play calling is biased towards long passing and big hits which some fun animations to inflict more injuries or escapes that allow for huge plays to take place The campaign is fun, the cut scenes could have used more work but with a game like this it mostly comes down to gameplay. There are definitely improvements that can be made there or with play calling menu that doesnt allow for a full time to pick plays overall this game is deifnitely worth to revist even in 2024. the graphics are still good for its era and the gameplay itself will have you wanting to play one more down each time.

I am really surprised that this game has such a bad user score (6.7 at time of writing). I love this game. It is hilarious and very satisfying to play. I have a much better time playing this exaggerated version of football than playing madden, and breaking bones and causing injuries is super satisfying lol.

Blitz the League II not exactly the most hyped of games but still this is my review and take on it. Basically it's over the top in your face football which isn't necessarily bad in fact commendable. The music definitely does suit the genre and at times feels badass. There's injuries all over the place and that's a key mechanic of the game. There's girls, numerous clubs, steroids (of course) . Probably the coolest part of the game is probably the injury mechanics it's really quite fun and it's a mechanic other football games explore cough, cough Madden.A big problem with Blitz the League II is that if feels almost exactly the same as the First Blitz the league. My recommendation if you're interested rent it split the cost with a ****'s not likely though to be making a comeback at all.
