Great news for anyone who loves football games, Sensible Soccer is finally making a come back! For those of you not old enough to remember, Sensible Soccer was the most popular football game of the first half of the 90s. Top down, fast paced action, and great fun As highlighted in the article, current football games are slow and boring, not to mention cumbersome for the sake of closeup camera angles  . I have not liked a single football game in the last 10 years (Champ Man excluded!) but really looking forward to Sensible Soccer! http://www.eurogamer.net/article.php?article_id=61490Of course, the main rival to Sensible Soccer was Kick Off (or Goal as the final version became known as), personally Goal was my favourite footy game ever, so it's good to know that the creator of those games is also making a new footy game again as well

mmmm..... Syndicate... if only. How fitting a Cannon Fodder would be now... so much war... chances are that the soldier graves would be branded as tasteless now though

A package called EA REPLAY...which includes the following: Desert Strike & Jungle Strike, Road Rash, Wing Commander AND SYNDICATE.... all for 20 bucks what the hell... I've died and gone to heaven... now all we need is a rehash of Frontier: Elite 2 and UFO Enemy Unknown and you will never hear from me again :)

that sounds excellent (both bits of news!)
Those games were amazing, hope they at least put a few of them on Xbox Live, especially Syndicate!!
I did also hear that Sensi got pulled from Live as well due to a variety of bugs, hope it's fixed soon!

I had a shot of the demo on my mates 360 tonight, excellent game I didn't do too well though! my excuse is I had always preferred the Kick Off/Goal games, so I'm not used to the button setup
