NFL Head Coach (PC Games, 2006)

This game is the best game for about anyone! It is excactly like being a head coach! The loading is a little slow but it is worth the wait! You only get to coach but that is awesome. The Draft is the best part! Anyone should get this game!

Its a nice game but you better have alot of time if you gona play it.I have played 8 hour and have just made my first draft. I realy hate the draft why does every computer team have to have 45 sec to pick there players. but all and all its a ok game but only for the hard core fan of the game of football. If you are not a hard core fan buy another game.

This game is really boring. I dont think EA sports needed to make a whole game out of being a head coach, it should have been added to Madden. I actually think the Super Star mode of Madden would have made a better game. The game isnt so bad but it gets very boring after a while.

The game, while it captures the essense of being a head coach from the management perspective, seems to have lost its focus on the fact that it is a game, it should be fun.
At times it seems more like a simulator that head coaches may use to hone their skills, as opposed to something that is tweaked for enhanced gameplay. Imagine a war game where sometimes you go on patrol and don't find anything of interest. You just walk around for 2 hours. That is how HC seems at times.
Don't get me wrong, the concept is great and the actual gameplay does warrant a 3/5, but there is definately room for improvement. I think that those people who would be drawn to a game where you play as a coach will be excited and yet be looking forward to what comes next year. People who are drawn to games like MAdden for the action, stay back. This is more MS Flight Simulator, then Falcon 2.0.

I have only owned this game for two weeks before I sold it here on eBay. I didn’t have much time to play and it was just way to time consuming for me. But for the couple of times that I’ve played it, I thought it was just too sluggish, which made the game very frustrating.

This game has a great concept, but I felt that it should’ve taken its queue from the Madden games’ dynasty mode or owner mode. The restraint of having three moves per day was just too frustrating. Some days I needed to make more than three moves, and others I needed less. This is especially frustrating during free agency where you’d like to tend more offer sheets than is allowed.

As for the maintenance of your roster, there were just too many menus you’d have to go through just to access them. Ditto for the play books; actually, for everything else.

As for the game play, what else can be said about it? You are the coach and you let the players make plays while you call out the plays and motivate your players. Maybe this is the only positive the game offers.

Overall, I give it 2 stars.

Next time, please take out the restraints. That’ll allow the game to flow and make it much more interesting.

Failed initial install. Graphics problem? Cause unknown. My System is XP. Has no patch for problem online.

Couldn't find this game for sale in my country and decided to try out eBay. After registration with eBay I did the payment via Paypal and soon got the confirmation that the game was on its way. I received the package from my local post office, neatly packed and in excellent condition. I wouldn't hesitate to order through eBay again.

Thank you for the excellent service!

Very slow. More of a slow moving simulation than a game. Perhaps if you buy it used it would be a good purchase. I wasn't really pleased that I paid $19.99 for it retail.

It's not too bad. A little slow at times. Good graphics. Game needs to be more helpful in some spots, but, for the most part, it is what I expected. I enjoy the trading and drafting scenes. Not a huge fan of the play selection scenes as of now, but once I get used to the game a little bit more, it may grow on me. Overall, a good game.
