Mean Machines
Speedball is one of those games that adds another dimension to console software; it's relatively original, exciting to play, and it has a sense of humour. After ploughing through a plethora of staid shoot 'em ups and cretinous cute platform games, this comes as a breath of fresh air to me. My minor criticism is that the speed of the game isn't quite what I'd hoped for; when it's the name of the game, I expected the action to be more fast-paced. It makes little difference to the enjoyability though, and this is a superb two-player game. No rules means no limit to the fun - if you've got a friend to play against on a regular basis, make sure you check out this thrilling game.

Power Play
Spielablauf und Extravielfalt des Originals bleiben zwar erhalten, aber nach heutigen Maßstäben wirkt der Spielablauf etwas zu simpel. Die Master-System-Umsetzung leidet zudem darunter, daß der Liga-Modus komplett rausgeworfen wurde. Die Steuerung mit dem wabbeligen Sega-Joypad ist etwas unpräzise und der Sound schlapp. Speedball macht vor allem zu zweit durchaus Spaß und bietet solide Grafik, doch auf Dauer lassen sich gewisse spielerische Alterserscheinungen nicht ignorieren.
