In the past I’ve always had praise for Armor Games, a site that maintains a consistently high quality of online titles. Of course, we all make mistakes from time to time. Nobody’s perfect, after all – just look at Idi Amin. And so Armor Games has sadly suffered its own wave of psychotic, xenophobic deportation, by which I mean they’re hosting a game called Axis Football League and it sucks.

This is a game that clearly has the best of intentions. In fact, it describes itself as the “first, great online football game,” which made me chuckle heartily, as there is nothing great about this title. I guess it looks nice, but if you’re a long time reader of Big Mean Flash Gamer, you’ll already know that looks can be deceiving. Sometimes that hot chick is really a man and sometimes a pretty game is really a pile of garbage. But only one of those events will change your life and make you ask questions on the concepts of gender and sexuality, and it’s not the second one.

I suppose, being someone with little interest in American football, this game wasn’t going to appeal to me too much. But hey, there are plenty of sports I don’t follow and as long as the game based on it plays well, I can still have fun. Obviously they couldn’t use the names of real teams due to copyright purposes (because, you know, the Steelers worry about Flash games stealing their logo.) I decided to play as the New England Volunteers. Wow, that name must strike terror into the hearts of their opponents.

We toss the pigskin around on Page 2 – if we can find it.
