FIFA International Soccer
The isometric oneGenre: sports - soccer
Publisher: Electronic Arts
Year: 1993
System: Genesis
Gameplay Score: 1
Gameplay Notes:
Movement feels great, but passing is much more difficult in this version than the SNES version. Opponents crowd you immeditely and block your every move. In fact, I rarely completed a pass. Consequently, scoring is incredibly rare. I played for 30 minutes and never scored a goal. Each button corresponds to a different kind of hit but I honestly couldn't detect much of a difference between them. Pitch is isometric which makes movement a bit weird but it lets you see a lot of the field but makes passes challenging. Gameplay is fluid but slower than Sensible Soccer and Elite.
Level Design Score: 3
Level Design Notes:
Lots of modes. Corner kicks and throw in and such are handled well which I liked. Has an action or a simulation mode. I went with action and scored a couple of goals which is better than most games.
Theme Score: 1
Theme Notes:
It's soccer. I hate soccer
Art Style Score: 3
Art Style Notes:
Sprites look good and animate very well. Everything looks great, even the menus are pleasing.
Audio Score: 1
Audio Notes:
Crowd noise and some really dorky menu music. Title screen music is far worse than the SNES version
Overall Score: 34
