Stylish and super fast

Advantages: stylish design, increase speed and acceleration, fit according to foot shape
Disadvantages: may leave blisters during the first few times wearing

...This pair of boots is amazing, can't wait to have one of them. The thing I love best about Nike is that they always come out with very stylish design for socer boots and I just feel really good wearing them on the pitch. With the familiar design of the famous Mercurial generation, this new Mercurial Veloci promises to offer great support, flexibility and speed. The specially designed bottom produces great friction with the turf, that helps to increase acceleration and balance. I can now do complex tricks, turn and run with complete confidence. Made from synthetic materal, the boots will fit your foot shape in no time. Just wear it in one or two days, and you may think that the boots are custom made only for your foot. However, it may leave some blisters during the first few times wearing it. Available in may other colours...

Review of Nike Mercurial Veloci Astro Turf Trainers

'Some people are on the pitch...'

Advantages: Excellent performance, very comfortable
Disadvantages: You're slightly paying for that quality

......they're called 'the players' Kenneth, you big eejit. Having managed over my 36 years to construct a body so biased towards the right side as to make J Edgar Hoover proud, the gradual emergence of a large hole in my football boots strategically placed directly over my starboard big toe was something that needed addressing. Some might suggest that some warm milky tea and retirement were the appropriate course of action, but as fully paid-up member of the Rage Against The Dying Of The Light Brigade, I opted for the 'replacement' option. And so it came to pass that my not-that-dainty-Size-Tens were easing their way into a pair of Adidas Team Mundial Astro Turf G. Classics. The selection had not been arbitrary. Online searches of football forums had revealed the odd supporter capable of coherent written English, and once they...

Review of Chevrolet Astro Van

Liquid football!

Advantages: Depth and challenge remain, but so much simpler for the time conscious!
Disadvantages: Well, some people just don't like football - fools!

...FOOTBALL MANAGER 2009 (PSP) A long time ago (1992 to be precise) in a bedroom far, far away, sat a geeky football loving goof who, when not outdoors kicking a football about (surprisingly for a geek he was also frigging awesome at football), they were sat on their Amiga 600 being wowed by either the greatest football game ever made - Sensible Soccer - or the beginnings of an otherwise humble football management simulator. Little more than a text database with no discernable graphics or sound, Championship Manager did feature an addictiveness only previously matched by the e-numbers found in a packet of Skittles. Quite simply, there was little better than looking at a bunch of numbers to determine the best starting eleven, the tactics required to utilise the eleven purposefully and identifying future transfer targets to build...

Review of Football Manager Handheld 2009 (PSP)

Table Football. A good game

Advantages: Good game. Fun. Good Graphics.
Disadvantages: Takes some getting used to

...Ok so i wasnt too sure about tis game at first. Im not the best at table football on an actual table, so playing it in simulation did'nt seem the best idea, but something was telling me to give it a go. I was not too sure wether it would work well on screen and how the controls would work. But i have to say im pleasantly surprized that this is actually a good game. Main Features: Fast paced table football action Create your own team of Table Football players Play using official rules or create bespoke rules to suit the game Partnership with ITSF Play on official tables Firstly you are greeted with a set of options enabling you to set-up games using any of the Table footballing rule sets, you may select to play from a number of pitches, also deciding you're team, the opponents and the weight/ material of the ball you wish...

Review of Table Football (Wii)

The football management game

Advantages: 3D match engine, all players in the world are available, better than LMA manager
Disadvantages: Sometimes strange results like team in 1st place being beaten by team in 24th

...Football manager 2009 has continued the football manager series with the same features and layout of the game as the past versions, but this time features a new 3D match view. The game has many good features that would make me more willing to buy this game over the biggest competitor, LMA Manager 2009. Firstly, the game can be installed very quickly, and you can choose the countries and the leagues who wish to play in, or buy players from. For example, if you only wanted to play in the English leagues, you can do so by only entering the English leagues to play in, however if you then in future wanted to play in another countries' league(s) you would have to hope that that country or club makes you an offer to manage them. If not you will be stuck with only being able to take over teams in the country that you have selected. Many fans...

Football Manager 2008

Advantages: Fun game at being a manager for any footie fan and good use of xbox live
Disadvantages: Some areas are weaker than the PC version

...Football manager has always been a great game for those football fans wanting to take control of their favourite teams and live the lives of people such as Alex Ferguson, Arsene Wenger and Jose Mourinho. The game was released each year as a game for the Pc against its rival Championship manger. I have played older versions of this game on the PC, but had never actually played a version on the xbox and so thought well why not as the xbox is so powerful it must be able to cope with this game. My gamble paid off and it has certainly been worth it as well as having all the features and depth of the PC, it also has further benefits with xbox live also playing a part in the game. This game was created by Sports Interactive and was released for sale on the 360 in march 2008. It is agreat game with over 5,000 teams to choose from and you get...

Review of Football Manager 2008 (Xbox 360)

Football lands on the WII

Advantages: An innovitive control system that adds to the experience
Disadvantages: poor tackling, disappointing team names and slightly poorer graphics in matches

...Ever since I bought my first console I found myself drawn to all variety of football games. In particular I found the Fifa and Pro Evo series to be my favourites. When I recently got rid of my Xbox and replaced it with a Nintendo WII I wasn't entirely sure how I would still be able to satisfy my desire to play Football games on a console. That was until I was given a copy of Pro Evo 2008 by my fiancée for my birthday and the chance to find out if my enjoyment of football games was totally gone had presented itself. It was always going to be a tricky console to convert football games onto and it seems that both Konami and EA have risen to the challenge. The first thing to note about the WII version of Pro Evo soccer isn't the graphics or the lack of official licences but it is in fact the control system. Konami have introduced...
