Sensi wasn't only better than Kick Off 2, it's still the best football game ever. (Sensible WORLD OF Soccer this is, the vanilla version wasn't as good).
Nah, Kick Off 1 is the best, by far. The 'ghost players' that sometimes appeared in the net when you scored a goal were particularly cool, and no other footie game has them.
I would like to suggest that Player Manager was the best footy game from the retro years by a long shot. Such a simple footy game idea that's never been bettered.
Out of the two in the thread, they were very different games, I think though that Sensi shaded it for sheer addictiveness.
What the heck!! For me its not even a question man! Sensible Soccer all the way! The curl was the best! It was fast! The handling was lovely! The passing was great! Loads of teams! You could see lots of the pitch any one time! Kick off had non of this! (sorry for the exclamations!)
Andrew Spencer's International Soccer on the C64 was superb for its day.
I remember hearing about some hacked 'wheelchair' edition of that but I never saw any screenshots. Emlyn Hughes' Soccer used the same engine as that, too, and that was pretty good in its day.
Yeah Sensi on the Amiga for me. It had to be with the zip stick controller too
Kick Off 2 was good also, but Sensi was slightly easier to play and required as much skill to master.
On the best footy game ever front, I'm afraid my vote goes to Pro Evo, of course.
Sensible Soccer for me , still nothing comes close the most pefect controls ever seen in a game. Special mention must go to Match Of the Day II that game was so far ahead of its time is almost scary
