One of the traditions in the United States on Thanksgiving along with eating far too much food and trying to avoid certain relatives, is watching football, with their not only being 3 NFL games on tap, but also the annual Egg Bowl between Ole Miss and Mississippi State. Because of that, I thought it was a good time to review one of the "other" football games for the Genesis, that isn't from Sega or Electronic Arts.
Enter today's video, which is a review of Mike Ditka Power Football from Accolade. When I've looked at "alternative" football games previously on the channel....well, it didn't go so well, and I managed to suffer through one of the worst games I've played during my 5 years of doing Zilog and Moto.
Will Mike Ditka Power Football suffer that same fate? Or did Accolade actually produce a decent, early football title on the console? Take a look!
