International Superstar Soccer (PS2)

Everybody has his or her special favourite things. Some like brown bread opposed to white. Tomato sauce is the best whilst others will choose Brown. Games can be a bit like that too and if there’s one ‘clash of the titans’ genre it’s got to be Football titles. I think you know the two games I’m talking about too, they are of course ISS and FIFA. I’ll be straight with you from the start – I’ve preferred the ISS titles due to their blistering playability, they’ve always had that edge over the EA Sports title. It’s back to business for both titles on the PS2, EA with (shock horror) FIFA 2001 and Konami with ...  Read the complete review

First off, let me start by saying this game is not yet out in Europe. The version I played was not the god awful ISS available at the moment in the shops but the Japanese code for the up and coming Pro Evolution Soccer. And having got it from a source at Konami with the promise that the main game engine was going to remain pretty much the same, I can guarantee that this game is going to be awesome!

Originally ISS came out on the N64 and in those days it ...  Read the complete review

The Game, The rebirth of International Superstar Soccer or ISS what it is called for short is one of the best I have seen. The game has been totally enhanced graphics, sound and teams. The game has about five or six game modes like open game, world league and World Championship Cup games. The open game is if you wish to play a single game against another team. In this you can have up to four players, two against two, which is very good fun. The World League is where one player plays against other world team in a league and can change player and other football tactics. The World Championship Cup is about the same as the League mode but you compete in a Cup. ...  Read the complete review
