The Football master reclaims it's Crown

Advantages: Outstanding Graphics, Great Gameplay, Updated Game Modes
Disadvantages: Some Old Animations linger

...The pro Evo Series has been dissapointing us way back since 2007, each year since FIFA has since become top dogs and pro evolution fans have had to hang their heads in shame. However all that has changed as Pro evolution steals back it's crown as king of the football franchises. The game recieved a major overhaul and now sports many licensed teams, gorgeuos graphics and updated modes. The creators took every word from fans on what they wanted so as not to dissapoint and boy they didn't. First off the game looks great. Each player looks realistic and shirts and shorts crease and snd fold really nicely. The pitches and stadiums look wonderful but you won't really be interested in this detail, but it does look wonderful. A big step up in the graphics department. The main gameplay has also been slightly tweeked. The game sports...

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 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...

Virtua Con Football

Advantages: The lawyer whom you befriend is no bad looking
Disadvantages: It's like a weak FIFA game engine with PES's worst touches

...needed. Unlike PES, there's not the quality for quicker one-touch football here as players feel the need to take a touch. Sure enough it has couple of league licenses, but simply, it's not football as it's meant to be....

The best soccer games

Advantages: great graphic and game play.
Disadvantages: lack of license, but great flexibility to modify using Kit Server

... Overall The first thing I want to say is that this is the best soccer games that I've ever played. When I got the game last year, I doubt it might repeat the dissapointment of the previous version, but I was convinced that it's the best game when installed and started playing. Graphic Pro evolution soccer always gives great graphic quality with realistic models. The players look really alike from their real life. Compared to the last version, there is a great improvement on graphic performance. Although my computer uses a GeForce 7300 with 2GB RAM, I can play smoothly at medium graphic configuration. When I played the game on my friends computer, which allows highest graphic config, the quality is subperb. Just really enjoy it. Gameplay There is a big improvement of gameplay compared to the previous versions...

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...

  Sensible Pro Evolution Soccer!

Advantages: It's Pro Evolution Soccer, in handheld format for crying out loud...
Disadvantages: Some long loading times and a lack of a Master League likely to put some fans off...

...So, the second best football game ever made gets a release on the PSP. For shame that few remember the gloriously addictive Sensible Soccer (from the halcyon days of the Amiga) as the title would be perfect for Sony's venture into the arena of handheld and portable gaming. Small, compact and simple, the endeavour would surely make the most out of the platform given the power of the PSP. Instead we have Pro Evolution Soccer, Konami's yearly updated monster for the Playstation 2, which in many ways is akin to playing virtual football. A fantastic game by all accounts, but, given the range and depth of the football on show - including numerous cup competitions, individual player data, the much loved Master League and barnstorming realism in the graphics department - its conversion to the PSP would seem as tricky as a FA Cup third round away...

Martial arts monks playing soccer!

Advantages: Hilarious total entertainment
Disadvantages: CGI a bit overused

...Shaolin Soccer has finally reached these shores after becoming a massive success all throughout Asia back in 2001. Quite why it has taken so long to get here I don?t know but with the recent release of Hero, and the upcoming House of Flying Daggers, maybe the time is right for something other than horror and heroic fantasy to arrive from Asia. As far as I know this is the first out and out comedy to come from the major Asian film making countries (Though Thailand?s ?Iron Ladies?, another sporting comedy did make it to cinemas around three years ago). This is surprising considering the success of Jackie Chan and his comedic style but maybe the distributors think Asian comedy just doesn?t travel overseas. Shaolin Soccer is a blend of comedy, martial arts and the standard underdog rooting sports film (i.e. Dodgeball and Major League...

There Only One Type Of Football For Me

Advantages: More exciting than any other sport
Disadvantages: Have to stay up late to see it live

...(American) football is the #1 sport in the United States of America, and is also my favourite sport (in terms of viewing). It is called football because it has its foundations in the English game of Rugby football, which was played in the 1800s, before it crossed over the Atlantic and got lots of alterations to it. History: There is one major football league in North America, but there are also alternatives such as the CFL (Canadian Football League) and the AFL (Arena Football League). NFL: The National Football League is the main football league in America, it consists of 32 teams, all of which are located within the borders of the nation. The process of making this league, began with two original brands of professional football, the AFL and the NFL, who merged in 1920 to create the American Professional Football...
