Post-Superbowl Blues? Maximum-Football Goes Gold!

[Alex Fiedler]

Run, Throw, Manage, Coach, Design Plays and More!

Matrix Games and Wintervalley Software (www.wintervalley.com) are proud to announce the second sports title in the Matrix Games line, Maximum-Football, has gone gold and is expected to release early next week as the first 3D sports strategy game of the 21st Century.

Primarily a coaching and management game, Maximum-Football is a robust North American Football game where you can change nearly every single aspect of the rules and features. Use Indoor, outdoor, Canadian, or American rules, or any combination thereof. Utilize the robust play editing system to create your own playbook specifically tailored for the team you drafted and trained in the pre-season. Compete in player run leagues and discover if you have what it takes for a championship ring.

It isn’t just managing every aspect of a team though, Maximum-Football also features fully functional coaching and arcade mode where you can watch the action or take the controls to run, pass, block, and tackle in true 3D. The feature list for Maximum-Football is tremendous, but here is a peek at just some of the key items on the list. For the complete list, please visit the Matrix Games Maximum-Football forums.

Maximum-Football Feature List:

*Multiple rules styles. Play Canadian, American Pro, American Amateur, or Indoor styles of football, all with a single game.

*Ability to mix and match some rules to create your own league with your own rules.

*Fully DirectX based with full 3D game play environment. This is not a text based game.

* The Play Development System. The most advanced play design system available for any football title on any platform. A point and draw system allows you to draw the player routes and assign scripted actions to the player along those routes. Most plays imaginable can be created with the PDS. Works with all rules styles.

*A full practice mode allows you to take to the full 3D practice field and run your newly created plays with or without a defense.

*Open source team artwork allows for simple addition of user created artwork for team uniforms and field artwork.

*Basic career mode allows for drafting players from a free agent pool, developing their skills through a training camp system, and watching them perform on the field until they eventually retire.

Discover the ultimate gridiron game! Maximum-Football will be available next week from the Matrix Games store.

I'm really looking forward to this game. I'm a gamer of Sierra Front Page Sports Football. After the last fully working version of it in 98 and playing it for a strong almost 6 years and finally dying and i don't know why but won't work right after building a new PC. But FINALLY!!!! Full total control football, BUT... how much? I like to run leagues with friends (I gotta get them on the bandwagon after I check ths game out) . But I also like to run my own career league and play. Create everything there is to create from formations to routes to pulling that guard around the end etc... But I like to play also. In career mode, just how much can you control during a game? After a play is called can I grab my gamepad take over? Will the CPU control until I Take over during a play? If someone out there knows... Please reply!! And again... thanks for the return of real football on the PC LTRAIN

OKay. Update the wintervalley website PLEASE. The last update there under products is from 2001. Surely this is not a 5 year old program in a new packaging?
