It's the most famous game of chess ever played.
A lot of people think instead of Nc3 Morphy should have played
Bxf7+ and Qxb7. I've seem this on websites and in at least one book.
I believe the game has been recreated a few times. Sometimes Black
sees the coming Queen sac and tries to avoid it. Go through your DB
about 6 moves before the end.
The closest I came was Nc3 but Black never played b5.
I have a mock compulsory disorder syndrone with this game.

dxe5 6. Bc4 Nf6 7. Qb3 Qe7 8. Bxf7+ Qxf7 9. Qxb7 Qc4 10. Qxa8 Bb4+ 11. c3 O-O white could play 12. Qb7 instead of 12.Nd2.
