Longtail Studios has announced that its iPhone/iPod Touch title, a 3D football game called Football U, is now available for free on the App Store.
Hey, what's this? A sports story not written by our resident sports guy, Samit Sarkar? Well, here's the deal -- Football U isn't your typical sports game. Longtail hooked me up with a copy a few weeks ago, and I was skeptical at first -- I don't really like football games. Or football.
But Football U surprised me with its off-the-wall story, and straightforward (and relatively fun) passing mechanic that requires zero sports knowledge. Which is good, because I have none. Also, did I mention that it's now free? What do you have to lose?

The game is pretty good though. A little simple but whatevs.
Don't let the language thing get in your way, Eyeshield 21 is still import friendly and an awesome game too. There's also a PSP version lurking somewhere.
