Back in the day (of the Commodore Amiga), there was a game called Sensible Soccer that was a whole lot of fun to play. It had zany programmers who twisted physics, sped it up and made a classic. It was soccer as a cartoony computer game, rather than a computer game trying to be soccer. I even kept the box and original disk after I sold my Amiga :) They are about to release a 2006 remake and I just played the demo - it's good fun. Doesn't have commentary like a FIFA game so it feels a bit silent, but that doesn't really matter.

Jesus, heading the ball with a noggin like that could be nasty.
Downloading to try it out. I wonder if the US team will be as big a set of pussies when they've got the ball in the box as the curent team is.

And they make it for the PSP, which would be the ULTIMATE platform for a footie game like this.

That was a hypothesis... they haven't yet announced a PSP version. I would rock the world however.

It is apparently NOT a Starforce game. Source 12. No - there's no Starforce on the PC version of Sensible Soccer 2006. Source 2Got confirmation from Compat on this and I can categorically state "no Starforce" on Sensible Soccer 2006.
It'll be using another copy protection system. |

VIKLAS!

Sensible Soccer and the "Goal" series were really "twitch" soccer.
I was completely inept at them.

Well, all of them except those game manager ones.
