    Your favourite Amiga football game?

    Most of us have probably played a lot of different football games on the Amiga. There were many good titles to choose from, for example the Kick Off (except Kick Off 3) and Sensible Soccer series.

    Which is your all-time favourite Amiga football game, and why?

    SWOS, no question. It just has everything and it still gets played by many people all these years on. And it's great pretending Norwich are a top-half Premier League side with some great players

    On the management side I'd go with Championship Manager '93 - I've lost weeks to that game. Very addictive. And I won 13 league titles with Brentford, as you do.

    I will say SWOS as well. Before that came out it was KickOff 2, but once the first Sensible Soccer came out that was it. There was no better, and there still is no better football game for pure gaming enjoyment.

    If you haven't played a classic game in years, it's never too late to start!

    Never could get the hang of SWOS. Always prefered the management games. Player Manager, Premier Manager, USM etc.

    football is great game to play with your mates, but a poor game to watch or play on your own!!

    infact i find most footy games are IMHO, dire... with the exception of

    SWOS... *awesome*
    Kickoff 2... this was much better than the original, but lacking the intensity of SWOS

    SpeedBall 2 (better than kickoff 2 )
    Brutal Sports Football (okay not really football but attacking your best m8 with a chainsword is quite a wholesom act!!!!)

    FIFA 97 on the SNES was good... but it like most EA games was lacking something ...
    If i had a hammer, I would hammer in the morning, i would hammer in the evening, i would hammer all day

    The original FIFA was great on Megadrive but the Amiga conversion sucks big time. I know i was stupid enough to buy it.

    SNES and the first N64 versions of FIFA were very enjoyable, but still nowhere near as fun as SWOS.

    The only game that can beat SWOS is Pro Evo, IMO.
