Ok...

I used to play the '92/'93 version of this game and it was really a lot of fun. Hence I was glad to find a game of the same series here. Anyway I found this version much harder, friendlies are easy to play but then it seems impossible to score against any opponent in season mode, with goalies that become martians. Oh well, I suppose I'll have to find out some tricks for this release and maybe get a joystick too. Still 5 stars for the localized versions.

I can die happy now!

I am not sure if it is possible to catalogue all of the hours I spent playing this gameon my Amiga! Whether it was customizing a league, designing uniforms, or just playing for hour on end. Simple controls, lots of options, (by 1990's standards), and just damn fun to play.

Great title

Love it , the greatest soccer game ever!!! So much in depth. Transfer system sets it apart. So much to enjoy here. One problem is I can't connect it to my ps4 joypad which makes it a bit more difficult. Will there be a fix for this?
