Details Inside

Cyberball is football of the future, a game played by Cyborg robots whose goal is to outmaim, as well as outscore, their opponents. But when the smoke clears, and the battlefield is swept clean of severed limbs, Cyberball demands more talent strategy, and sheer guts than any ordinary video game football title you've ever played, Featuring:

• 5 levels of play: play as a rookie; then power your way through 4 advanced levels.

• Over 100 offensive plays keep 12 defensive formations honest.

• Choice of 4 teams, each with unique strengths and weaknesses.

• Play alone, against another player, or two against the computer.

CYBERBALL™

Cyberball: The year is 2022. Robots five times the size of humans, built to withstand the violence and destruction, battle it out in a head to head, metal on metal fight to the finish.

Converted from the hugely successful coin-op, Cyberball is a game for one or two players based loosely on American football. By the 21st Century all humans have been eliminated from the game and you, as team captain, take control of the robots, selecting from teams like the Los Angeles Assassins and the Dallas Destroyers.

Full of crashing tackles, this is one mean game. It's hard, it's tough and sometimes plain ugly, but once you start playing you won't want to stop.

Cyberball: Es ist das Jahr 2022 Robotter, fünf mal so groß wie Menschen und gebaut, um der Gewalt und Zerstörung zu trotzen, kämpfen in einer Schlacht Kopf an Kopf und Metall auf Metall bis zum Ende.

Cyberball, das von der enorm erfolgreichen Version für Münzapparate umgewandelt wurde, ist ein Spiel für 1 oder 2 Spieler und basiert lose auf amerikanischem Fußball. Bis zum 21 Jahrhundert sind alle Menschen vom Spiel eliminiert worden und Du, als der Mannschaftsführer, übernimmst die Kontrolle über die Robotter und wählst aus Mannschaften wie die Los Angeles Assassins und die Dallas Destroyers.

Dieses ist ein gemeines Spiel, voll von krachenden Angriffen. Es ist hart, es ist rauh und manchmal einfach häßlich, aber wenn Du erst einmal angefangen hast zu spielen, willst Du nicht mer aufhören.

Cyberball: siemo nel 2022 I robot, cinque volte più grandi degli esseri umani e capaci di resistere contro ogni violenza e distruzione, hanno iniziato una dura battaglia finale, che li vede l'uno contro l'altro in una cozzaglia di metallo.

Convertito dalla versione di grande successo sulle macchine a gettone, Cyberball è un gioco per uno o due giocatori, basato vagamente sul football americano. Entro il 21 esimo secolo, tutti gli esseri umani vengono eliminati dal gioco e tu, il capitano di squadra, prendi il controllo dei robot, scegliendo una delle squadre come gli Assassini di Los Angeles o i Distruttori di Dallas.

Pieno di placcaggi e collisioni, Questo è un gioco crudele. E'difficile, duro e talvolta semplicemente ripugnante, ma dopo aver iniziato a giocare, non potrai fermarti.
