    Default Name That Game - 1st Person Football

    Sometime around 1990, I'd guess, I had a football game on the PC that I played all the time. It was first-person, and you looked through a view of a helmet. I cannot for the life of me remember what it was called. Anyone?

    The only game I can think of is Digital Pictures Quarterback Attack. It was a first person football game all done in full motion video.

    It was much later than 1990 though. It was released in 1995 for PC and 96' for Saturn and 3DO.
    If a god is willing to prevent evil, but not able, then he is not omnipotent. If he is able, but not willing, then he must be malevolent. If he is both willing and able, then why is there evil? If he is neither able or willing then why call him a god?

    Gamestar made GFL Championship Football for home computers, not sure it came to PC...? But that was 1st person.

    You remember whether or not it had an NFL license? Unnecessary Roughness '95 for DOS had a first person mode

    I'm almost sure that it was not NFL licensed. I just checked screenshots of Unnecessary Roughness '95, and that wasn't it.

    I remember playing a 1st person football game on the Amiga called GFL Championship football. It was pretty bad though.

    If it's not one of the games already listed I don't know what to tell you. I've played a helluva lot of football games and the aforementioned Quarterback Attack and Unnecessary Roughness '95 are the only ones that sound remotely like what you're describing. Was it an FMV game?

    I'm pretty sure I used to have that old PC game as well. I can't remember the name of it either.

    Nevermind, the one I had was the PC version of GFL Championship football.

    I wasn't aware there were 1st person football games. Whatever it was they should have combined it with a 1st person shooter.
