SNES

Striker

At last. The Super NES gets a footy game it deserves. It's playable, as realistic as you could want without sacrificing game-play, and stunningly addictive.

Striker er på trods af sin småtynde grafik og lyd et pragtfuldt fodboldspil. Du har ufatteligt mange valgmuligheder om spilleform, hold og spillere. Vær med i et VM eller nøjes med en enkelt indendørsturnering. Du kan selvfølgeligt også spille imod en kammerat, og uanset, hvad du vælger, er det drønunderholdende.

Forget the screenshots. Football games aren't meant to look nice. They're just meant to be as playable as possible, and it's hard to imagine a more enjoyable footy game than Striker. The controls are simple to get the hang of, and yet flexible enough to provide plenty of depth, so you can be up and playing within seconds, and yet still be discovering new tricks and tactics days later. (Kick Off looks like a sick joke in comparison.) Best of all, though, is the games speed - it's just right. It's got the same fast, zappy, arcadey, fun feel as Kick Off, and yet at the same time you've got plenty of control over what's going on, and plenty of time to think about what you're doing. Super Soccer just seemed painfully slow and clumsy after Striker and, along with Kick Off, hopelessly unfootbally.

World Soccer has its flaws, but overall it's as fun as any soccer cart around. If you can overlook the graphics, and learn to handle the speed, you'll want to get on this Road to Glory.
