About this product

Product Information

Brutally poor sportsmanship and fantasy combat clash in a gruesome battle for glory and gold, in Southpeak's Xbox 360 version of Blood Bowl. A tongue-in-cheek combination of Warhammer RPG-style battle and American football, the game is won by passing or running the ball into the opponent's end zone for a touchdown, but the players on the field wear armor and wield deadly medieval weapons. Gamers take the roles of coaches, drafting their teams from one of eight fantasy races, including humans, elves, orcs, and goblins. Each race offers a different balance of strength, speed, and accuracy. Individual players' skills can affect their chances of successfully blocking, dodging, tackling, and throwing or catching the ball, and also their combat moves. As in a role-playing game, abilities can be improved with gear upgrades. Helmets add toughness to avoid injury, shoulder pads increase strength, gloves make players more agile and dexterous, and boots increase speed. Cheerleaders and the rowdy crowds can also make a difference in a team's chances of success, as can bribing the officials.

The Xbox 360 game follows the official Blood Bowl rulebook. The turn-based mode is played much like grid-lined console RPG combat, except that the goal is not (necessarily) to slay everyone on the other team, but to move the ball across the field. A real-time mode is also available, to challenge the coaches' quick thinking abilities as well as their tactical planning skills. Multiplayer modes include LAN games and a same-screen hot seat option, as well as online competitions with persistent leagues and tournaments. The original tabletop version of Blood Bowl, played with miniature figures and dice, was created in 1987 by Jervis Johnson of Games Workshop, who also helped design Warhammer 40,000 and Warhammer Ancient Battles. The console and computer versions of the game were developed by France's Cyanide studio, whose previous credits include the European releases Pro Rugby Manager and Chaos League.

Great for the hardcore Blood Bowl player
Great for playing Bloodbowl between league games! The team selection is fairly limited but other than that it plays just like the board game. The graphics aren’t flashy and it takes a good eye to recognize the different positionals. But all in all I’m glad I picked this game up to practice for my table-top games.

Very close to the table top game
Bottom Line: I love this game! The campaign mode is great and the online multiplayer mode is also great. If you are looking for John Madden or Mutant League Football, this game is not for you at all. This game is very close to playing the actual table top game. There are lots of teams to choose from though not all the teams from the table top game are available. The Dark Elves can be downloaded. I do not know if more teams will be available latter. If you like the table top game you will also like this game. If you like strategy games you will at least appreciate this game if not like it. If you want an actual football game you will be very disappointed. The game can play a little slowly when you are first starting, and the tutorials suck. I recommend downloading the actual Blood Bowl rules from the Games Workshop web page to have a better understanding of the game.Read full review

Blood Bowl Must!
If you enjoyed the table top, you should love this game. If you are new to the world of blood bowl, this game is the perfect introduction for you. It will help you learn to play and to perfect your game. A real treat for anyone who wants to play many teams without having to wait through leagues or build/paint all the teams.
