10 Strangest Football Video Games Of All Time

Ойындар

Football fever is gripping the world once again, and the beautiful game is impassioning sports fans all over the world. Even we here at TripleJump have been known to sit in front of the TV during international games, yelling such phrases as “why didn't you pass it?” and “that was never a penalty” as if our impotent wailing could affect a football match taking place on the other side of the world. This time, however, we thought we'd get even more involved, and bring you a footie-themed list to keep you entertained during those empty hours between matches. You're very welcome. As the most popular sport in the world, football has been well-represented on consoles and computers over the years. From the early days of Sensible Soccer and FIFA, to the present day of … well, just FIFA really, let's be honest, kids and adults alike have spent countless hours in front of their TV screens, coaxing digital men to kick digital balls into digital goals. Here are the 10 Strangest Football Video Games.

    Another interesting entry, though it might have to be a wildcard entry, would be FIFA 2009 (I think...) specifically for the Wii having a mode where you can play with professional footballers' Mii characters. Seeing Miis slide tackling and tumbling around the pitch was hilarious. Also for consideration: Backyard Soccer. Soccer game with kids (including one in a wheelchair) and kid versions of famous MLS players at the time. (Made for kids, obviously, but still fun) Had full seasons to play through, if I remember right.

    Bit dissapointed that nintendo world cup for the nes was not on the list. You could play on gras, concreat ,ice or gravel and every surface had a diffrent impact on the players. If you tackeld a player enough times he would be put out until a goal was scored. Aside from that every team had a their own super shot exept from the us were almost every player had their own version. Still have my copy and play with friends from time to time...

    My couple of nuggets regarding footy games would be 1) There is/was a Japanese SNES (yes.. Super Famicom. whatever..) game that the mists of time have wiped the name of the game from my memory. Which had a bizarre English voiced match commentary. Who uttered the classic line at the end of the match. "TIMES OOP!" Can anyone help me with the name? I didn't imagine it I swear! 2) On the original International Superstar Soccer (for the Super Famicom in my case 'Perfect Eleven.') There was a way to almost guarantee a player being sent off. iirc it involved walloping the opposing goalie when he was taking a goal kick? Something like that. Well... I got to thinking, "how many players from my team could I get sent off in a match?" Took me a few practice runs, but I subsequently discovered the answer is in fact 10. Wanna know why? Because once your 10th blokey gets sent off, the other team will inevitably score. And the game promptly locks up because you don't have 2 players left to take the resulting kick off. Obviously the game creators didn't anticipate anyone being stupid enough to see what would happen in such a case.

  • @ryanmurphy4748

    @ryanmurphy4748

    In the real world, a match is abandoned if a team gets 5 players sent off. You'd think they'd have factored that in. I remember that game too, the original iss, there was also a guaranteed way to beat any man, you'd run at them, then do the step over flick the ball trick where it goes up the player's back and over their head. The opposition player would always try to head the ball in the middle of this trick, but could never intercept it, so you end up with the ball back at your feet and the guy is 2 metres behind you, giving you a free run past him. Worked every time, and made the game ridiculously easy. I could win games 20-0 on the hardest level, and I'm not that brilliant at video games.
