BBC MICRO Match Day

[lboymusic]

I used to DREAM with this game :)

[FrontierAstro07]

Yep, best football game ever. That equaliser was a corker. The goalie never moved!

[dreamcastII]

errr the BBC mciro was a fast 8 bit - this should not be this slow. I bet this was not programmed that well. Look at Rocket Raid on an original BBC and see the scrolling there - full screen and smooth

Who needs FIFA?

Considering the limitations of the hardware, in retrospect this was pretty impressive for the time. Even though it didn't play so well, a simultaneous two player game running in Mode 2 with nine animated sprites onscreen at once was quite an achievement.

[spaceman1979]

Oh dear, it's like watching blind sunburnt babies trying to play with a beachball. It would be ok if everything moved say, twice as fast?

FOOOOD FIGHT!!!!!

I had a BBC Micro when I was younger! It looked like Man Utd were the home team and Man City were the away team judging by the colours! The score was 2-1 to the home team, if it was 1-1 after 90 mins, there would've been 5 mins of added time and the home team would've scored! You wouldn't expect anything less at Old Trafford!

my family owned this game. yes!

[genesisduke72]

Hahahahaha vest and pants.

[JRGrange25]

They look like they are running about in there white fronts

[DidesCharlie]

Should that be Y-fronts?

[TieskeTukker]

Best football game ever!

More entertaining than watching Sheffield United.

Best bits about this game are:

1) Goalies multiple dives while waiting for the shot to reach them

2) Baldie coach on the bench
