I have always love playing the Sensible Soccer
games. They were fast, unrealistic and
not to hard on you. You could cut people
down, perform impossible shots on goal and score. The trouble is this game has lost its soul
and I don’t think the fact that Sensible Software did write this iteration is
a coincidence.
The trouble with is game is it wants to be a
simulator. It wants to compete with
the better franchises like Pro Evolution Soccer and it has no chance what so
ever of achieving this. It is a middle
of the road game that can’t make it’s mind up what it wants to be and in the
end it’s just a complete mess.
I must admit that I only played it a handful of time bit
in every match, I was down to nine men in the first half.
I found the players were unresponsive; they were too
slow to turn and left the ball behind.
The goalkeepers were gods amongst men or they certainly played like
they were a cut above the rest. The
referee was to quick to brandish the yellow card and stopped the game every time and I do
mean every time I tackled anyone.
There are some who would say that showing aggression is
a good thing for the body but I wanted to smash my TV. Yes I have my PC connected to my TV. So I decided to stop playing this travesty
of a game and went back to playing World of Sensible Soccer that was eight
years old and cost me a fraction of this piece of shite years ago.
If you want a simple and fun football game buy World of
Sensible Soccer or buy a Gamecube and buy Mario Soccer.
It won’t cost you much more than this and at least it
knows that it’s just a silly little arcade football game that will most
probably get played after going to the pub.
I’m sorry to say this but THIS GAME SUCKS.
