Description

USA Soccer '94 is a soccer game based on the World Championship event held in the USA in 1994. It includes full of information on stadiums, schedules, teams, and real soccer players. The game contains single matches as well as a complete championship.

The gameplay is shown in 3/4 view, not completely top-down, similar to Kick Off 2. There are several adjustments to define before gameplay begins, such as controllers, human/computer opponents, and on/off options for penalties and faults as well as time duration, etc.

The soccer game can also be played by up to two players simultaneously, but the computer can also take control of both teams to watch how it plays out. The game is only available in the Spanish language.

Trivia

The game was presented in June 1994 with a packaging very similar to that of PC Fútbol 3.0. The similarities didn't end there. Just as the PC Fútbol games, USA Soccer '94 mixes soccer simulation with a team database. The game was also sold in newsagent's shops and bore a similar price tag.

As a result, Dinamic Multimedia sued Digital Dreams Multimedia for "disloyal competence" and at least one Spanish videogame magazine, Micromanía (Age 2, issue 74, page 5, corresponding to July 1994), reproduced a press communiqué from Dinamic announcing the lawsuit and denouncing the similarities between the game and the PC Fútbol series.
