Sensible Soccer defined the Amiga era. Easy to play but stupidly addictive, anyone could score, but few could master its intricate subtleties.
This was the premier league of 16-bit game design. Now it’s been given a reboot for the PS2 and Xbox, smartening up the graphics but keeping the top-down view and freaky bobble-headed players.
Crucially, the glorious gameplay remains the same: a pick-up-and-play arcade feast with just enough charm and quirkiness to tempt gamers away from Pro Evo.
