Playing SWOS was one of my favourite activities as a child and I reckoned years after I last played it that it was still better than any of the latest FIFA or PES titles. Having played it now I can happily say it lived up to my memory. It's simple, fast and addictive. It's also, particuarly picking it up for the first time (or for the first time for years), not that easy. It's even more difficult without a controller, which is problematic given that SWOS doesn't support modern controllers. To be clear, it is possible to get a controller to work, but not without (albeit free) third party software. This simply shouldn't be neccessary in my opinion. SWOS is exactly how I remember, an amazing game, maybe the best football game ever made. I sincerely hope that the team behind getting this sold on GOG gets the controller issue fixed.
