Brings the fun back into football

User Rating: 8.1 | Sensible Soccer 2006 PS2
From the moment that this game loads up it reminds you of the good old days of sensible soccer with the Goal Scoring Superstar Hero theme tune still used.

This game is more about fun than most of the others available especially when you create a custom team. The preset compertitions are ok i guess but the removal of the career option does kind of limit your enjoyment down to only having the top 2 divisions from the main countries of europe to choose from.
The fun really does start when you play as a custom team where you can design the kit, the height , weight for each player & their facial features as well. By winning preset compertitions unlock various upgrades of skill bonuses for players & different upgrades for your team either in additional kit choices, different boot colours, different ball types & new surfaces for your home pitch.

I found this game alot of fun to play as it reminded me of the old versions of sensible soccer, with the usual overhead camera angle which does change on scoring goals to show the player celebrating.
With a bit of practice you can score some really outrageous goals from a fair distance which was a sensible soccer trademark.

If you are looking for a football game that promises fun you can't go wrong with this
