How the hell did I miss this one? Anyone played it or even have it? Is it better than WE?

[Street Turk]

Hmmm

Seems to be a lot of cross/pass into the middle and guarantee a goal.

Love to be proved wrong though.

There was a lot of discussion about it on Evo-Web back when it was released. I think the overall consensus was that it was too arcadey in speed to be a Pro Evo/WE challenger, but that it had a lot of neat features that should really be in the Pro Evo/WE games.

I'm looking for a copy myself at the moment, as from the videos I've seen it looks really good, especially the net animations.

[MonkeyJuggleDX]

Yeah. It also has a World up USA 94 look to it, if that makes any sense?

Also Dynamite Soccer 2004 Final looks good, so I'll have to track down a copy.

Is this PS2?!

Looks like it will be better for me than modern float job WE/PE, jap only??

Yeah. Japanese only PS2.

Looks like the perfect game to compliment WE. I could have WE for my slower, build from the back/patient passing moves and this for the fluent, free flowing, attacking play.

Shame I can't find a copy anywhere.

Reminds me of World League Soccer on Saturn (Champions League on PSOne?), which was awsome.

Most likely scarce. I've browsed ebay daily for import PS1/2 gear for the last couple of years and never seen a copy

It certainly looks intresting. Im not sure if you can order it from here but it might be worth a try as its only ￥ 880 at Amazon Japan.

Looks brill! Love the ball and net physics. Needs slowing down a little bit though. I also like the little attention to detail, like all the photographers and officials at each end of the pitch.

Looks easy to score, but then again it's a compilation of goals movie.

That may just be the beauty of it.

I remember back in the day, playing my mates and games would often be high scoring affairs, with the result being decided by the odd goal in nine.

These days, all football games seem to be low scoring with maybe 5 goals in a high scoring game.

Looks like Football Kingdom is a throwback to the good old days of fast paced attacking instead of the patient WE style buold up or ice skating mess of FIFA.

[MarioMark]

Yeah I see what you mean, a nice change from it all.

This arrived this weekend and.....



So much better than this years PES and ANY Fifa title. Fast, fluid, the passing is sublime once you get the hang of it.

Shame I gotta go to bed early else I'd be up on this all night!

[Shoju]

Does this play like a faster smoother (arcadey) PES? My ideal would probably be like ISS 98 but with a few more options and a bit more depth.

Where'd you get it?
