FA Cup Football 87

A re-release of the same game from last year. It's got updated data for this season but is otherwise unchanged. Little action and slow to play - you have to wait a long time for the draw to be made. Don't get it if you bought it last year.

Verdict

Had little going for it last year and less this time.
