Kick Off 2

All right, so England didn't win the Word Cup but that didn't stop the C&VG First XI going absolutely bananas over Kick Off 2 on the Amiga. Now the greatest footy game ever has surfaced on the Atari ST, and pretty dashed good it is too.

While it's not as graphically polished as the Amiga (no advertising boards around the pitches, which all look the same - dark and light green strips), the ST version actually plays faster.

Apart from that though all the features of the Amiga version are there (the kit design is more comprehensive on the Atari ST funnily enough!).

Kick Off 2 is the best football game ever to grace the Atari ST, and if you don't believe me, I'll burst into tears (Don't cry for me, Maradona!). Roll on 1994...

What more can one say? If there's a footy game better than this, we want to know about it.
