my mate got the plug and play version of this last year.

hes 27 and was living wi 19-20yr olds in student accommodation. brings it home and plugs it in ready to recapture his youth. his flat mate comes in for a 2 player. bearing in mind its sensible soccer - a D pad with shoot and pass buttons, his first question....how do you sprint? you dont sprint, you pass and shoot. ah, okay...how do you do a through ball then? you cant. you have to pass it around. okay, i gotta now. so how do i chip it then?

needless to say, the flatmate gave up pretty quick and went back to pes

These young ones don't know how lucky they have it with the Graphics in Fifa and Pes.

2 Subs could be made and all your players looked the same apart from hair colour.

Love this game! Espically when you have a few mates around having a bevy.

Have it for the sega megadrive. Always give away pens when i try to clear the ball from a corner cause tackle is the same buttom! :forbesz:

Nearly as good as Road Rash 2 :minijc:

All players names were wrong, if only by one letter down to copywrite laws at the time. The teams were the same so they were named cities, or as close to the name as the could get away with, hence teams like Turin (juventus), Istanbul (galertasery) , glasgow (one of them, cant mind which) etc.

The fact that you were NEVER in control of the ball was another feature that added to the enjoyment.

And the suspense you got waiting for if your 4 man tackle killing spree merited a red card above your head.........the joys! :applause:

I'm genuinely convinced that for a period in my life, 1994-1999, I was the best in the world at this game. :scouser: :scouser: SWOS on the Amiga is of course the definitive version. :applause:

Got it on the Xbox too and its nae a bad port across. Bit crap that the names are all buggered up but I still destroyed every single person on Live by at least 5 goals... Pity no-one seems to be playing it these days, the lobbies have been completely empty last few times I've tried. :dontknow:

The Amiga version was perfect.

Remember being 12/13 and for a while every Friday night was a Sensi tournamanet at someone's house. I was pretty good, usually got beat in the Final by the same boy though :thumbsdown:
