International Superstar Soccer

Football's coming home to Game Boy owners everywhere as Konami launches the world acclaimed International Superstar Soccer. Fun-filled footie action with a wealth of options and international teams to choose from is now available in pocket-sized form for everyone who likes to stick the boot in. There are three different skill modes to suit gamers of all abilities and a match timer option which allows you to determine how long each game will last. With a wide range of strategies and formations to choose from you can be in total control of your tactics whilst lending the team an extra hand with your goal celebrations. At the end of a game, if the match is tied you must face the tense and exiting penalty shootout to decide who'll be the winner and an aftermatch analysis will show who was the better team on the day.

On the downside ISS could be slightly faster, but the music is good and adds to the enjoyment of the game. You soon get the hang of when to pass the ball and also the best ways of putting the ball snugly into the bottom corner of the net. ISS is truly a world beater when it comes to soccer games and this title is no different, champion football for everyone to enjoy.
