Liverpool: The Computer Game
- Liverpool: The Computer Game (1993 on Commodore 64)
Description
In 1992, Liverpool FC had been the UK's leading club for most of the previous 30 years, although their FA Cup success that year proved to be their last major trophy for nearly a decade. Arc Developments' licensed game features a third-person 3D view similar to Striker, with a small area of the screen in detail at a time, although there is also a scanner to view where players are on the full pitch.
Playing as Liverpool, you can play either the full season, single matches, a 2-player friendly, or the FA Cup in season. Each Liverpool player has a full profile (although they all look the same on the pitch, and are all depicted as white), and the formation and team lineup can be chosen.
The ball roughly sticks to your foot, and player control is transferred to the player nearest to the ball by tapping fire, even if he is not close enough to the ball to be in view. Tapping fire as the ball comes to you will attempt a one-touch pass in the direction the joystick is pointing. Unusually, aftertouch is optional.
