Unnecessary Roughness '96

Overview
Unnecessary Roughness '96 is very well done and presented. With more than 1,300 NFL players to choose from, you can create your own league and conduct a draft. And with over 1,300 plays to run, it makes the game just as exciting play. Accolade has also brought the game closer to you than ever before, by bringing you right in on the play with a variety of camera angles and "Action Cams".

Compatibility
We only tested this selection in DOS and had to create a boot disk in order to load and play the game with no problems.

Last Notes
This very exciting football fantasy come true has everything you need to replay famous games, simulate games never played or create a league of your own. A must for the serious football fan or the novice that wants to get more involved.
