This is a very fast-paced football game where the rules are bent in some places and broken in others. There is a 30-yard down instead of the standard ten, the teams are eight-on-eight, and the kinds of hits that players put on each other would normally land them in jail. When players get injured, the person playing has the option of "juicing" players up, so they can return to the game faster, but they risk more severe injuries. There is also a special "clash" mode that can be used during play. It allows the player to slow down time and position himself perfectly for the play.GameSpot: Blitz The League Review (Xbox 360) (7.4) (November 21, 2006)
