Advantages: Graphics, Sound

Disadvantages: Price

I personally have to have many of the consoles now on the market, or have been so for Christmas I added a Gameboy Advance to my collection of a Atari St, SNES, Jaguar, N64, Gameboy, Gameboy Color, PS1 and a PS2. The gameboy advance I bought with the best game currently available, which was Mario Kart, but for my second game I had to get ISS.

So in my opinion ISS on the Gamboy Advance is the second best games currently on the console, and takes top spot in the sporting category.

This games is near enough and identical copy to the original series that appeared on the SNES. Which is its day, was the reigning champion when it comes to console football games.

***Graphics

The graphics are again a near enough direct port from the original, and therefore spite based. Although the graphics are a port they are in my opinion a little worse, due to the poor light of the screen and it’s ability to loose colours.

***Sound***

Sound in this game is brilliant, the people who made this games have really done a good job. The commentary, funnily enough is done by John Champion and in my opinion I better than any other ISS game on any other console, including the newest release Pro Evolution Soccer.

***Gameplay***


Many of the top teams are in this game, with most but not all correctly named players. There is plenty for the player to get their teeth into. Although not quite as much as on the PS1 and PS1 ISS games, it’s amazing for a handheld, and the battery power it uses.

***SUMMARY***

ISS on the Gamboy Advance is in my opinion the 2nd best game on the console, and certainly the best sports title available. At the moment it’s a little pricey at £34.99, perhaps wait for the new year price reductions of Game Boy Advance games.
