Description
editJohn Madden Football II comes with a game manual, two for the defense, and one for the offense. It does not use real NFL team or player names.
Reception
editComputer Gaming World in 1992 wrote that despite a very sophisticated playbook, John Madden Football II "has produced a state-of-the-art product — assuming that the year is 1989". The reviewer stated that while players would quickly turn the sound off, "the graphics are even worse!", and criticized the inability to play an entire season and flawed defensive plays and coverage. He recommended Konami's NFL over Madden.[1]
