Game Summary
Why watch the game on TV when you can be right
there on the turf, delivering bullet passes and
bone-crushing tackles along side the pros?
Dreamcast now gives you NFL-approved 3D
football, created with playbooks designed by
seasoned coaches and play-calling tendencies of
real NFL teams. Over 1,300 motion-captured
moves were shot using pro players, referees and
stuntmen to create the most heart-stopping,
ultra-realistic sports gameplay ever made. When
you tackle the tight end, he doesn't just fall over.
He responds to the direction and force of the
tackle, and even stumbles if your aim falls short.
You'll even get rained on or shouted at by the
animated crowd, adding to the incredible detail and
momentum of the game. Time to put those other
football games out to pasture. Dreamcast scores.
It's Kinda Like...
Every other football game you've ever played, only better.
The Buzz
It's been in development for over two years and Sega's depending on it to help sell the console... of course it's gonna be good.
Features
1,300+ motion-captured character
animations for the most realistic looking
football game ever created.
True 3D collisions with complex
point-based physics modeling.
High-resolution, 60 frames-per-second

Complete and accurate game and

leaving during a blowout, to characters
on the sideline scattering as a player
runs out of bounds.

VMU Usage
You can call plays with the help of the VMU. NFL2K also requires 191 blocks of memory to save anything, so you'll probably need to buy an extra VMU just to dedicate to the game.
