International Sensible Soccer - Atari Jaguar

This is one of two soccer games for our beloved jag.
I haven't played the other yet, so I can't compare the two at this time.
That being said, there are few games for the Jaguar that I would say that I just don't like. This is one of them.
It's partially because I've never liked soccer or soccer games, but the other part is it seems the opposing team gets to move 3 times faster than you do.
I don't know if it's difficulty setting or not, but I had it on beginner.
In any case, if you like soccer games, then maybe you would enjoy it more.
The characters are very small, though.
It just seems a little hard to control.
Make up your own mind, though :-)

Jaguar/CD-I/etc... They're just a Mega Drive (Genesis) with CD-sound :/.

Genesis couldn't do Battlesphere, Cybermorph, Battlemorph, I-War, Phase Zero, Zero 5, etc, etc...

WOW. A real blast from the past. I actually did this version. Was years ago now and the first Jaguar game I wrote. I know it looks hopeless now, but I loved playing it back in the day. Didn't have a lot of time to work on it but the Jag wasn't that powerful No matter what Atari said. So wasn't much could do with it. Wanted it to be the same as the original anyway. thanks for letting me see this again after all those years.

cheers

@madcapoperator Yeah? If the samples were played on an XBox360 then they would sound exactly the same. These were the sounds of the game, man. Enjoy them. Don't diss them.

Love the crowd!! *chants* "Oooh-yeah! Oooh-yeah! How're ya doin'? How're ya doin'? How're ya doin'? Awwww"

[madcapoperator]

wow, such shit sound for an alleged 64 bit machine...

Good graphics, does not a good game make....

I suppose a FOOTBALL game with poor graphics is never gonna get any ratings from a yank...

@LUNAPOLICE Actually its not as awful as it looks lol 1 my mates has one I had a go on it ! very suprising that its nt shit to use.

This game looks shit graphics compared to what the jag games I've seen look like though.

Jag needed a fifa game built ground up probably would have been as good as 3do version.

[LUNAPOLICE]

amazing game. wonder how the jag version played with that god awful looking pad

[AldorleaGames]

It's a very good game and the controls are actually excellent, fast and sensitive. On the PC version at least, I never got to play the Jaguar version.

Looks pretty decent, actually... I like the layout with the tiny players. It gives a more wide-open, big picture look at the game.

The fast pacing looks well done too, though it makes it hard for us spectators to follow what's going on... or hazard any sort of guess as to how fun the game is to actually play. :( Oh well, the demo is nonetheless appreciated!
