England International Football

My god, playing this at @GazzaGarratt house the other day was shite 😄

 

But shite in a funny way! We had a bit of a laugh with it. I had not played any of my retro stuff for a while and this has reinvigorated me a little. I really enjoyed just how simple it was, there wern't a lot of mechanics in it if you compare to modern day EA FC and you could literally just jump into playing a tournament within moments which was great.

I had no idea there was a retro game called England International Football and assumed you were on here to moan about the performance against Greece the other night 🤣

This is the game. Its hilarious to see it now, but you know, it was so nice to go back and play this without all the drama of ridiculous unneeded skills and crap like FIFA scripts and momentum that can spoil your games. Scoring was hard as nails and funnily enough more own goals were scored in the end it felt from corners! I couldn't remember the ways to score like I used to so it was a decent little tournament and hope to do more. Maybe I can get some clips next time to post.

 

Menus and UI was really good too btw. Clean and simplistic to get through. Like Matt said, none of this rubbish where stuff is hidden everywhere.

Is this the same as the club games? I remember I had the Arsenal game and absolutely loved it when I was younger!

Of course! Although I’m still undecided if I should try and get the kids to support them or not as I don’t think they deserve to go through the constant disappointments and heartbreak year after year 🤣

 

Although maybe that builds character? 🤔

I've never played any of those games...but apparently the England game was supposed to be an improved version of that Codemasters game - which makes me worry for that Club Football game tbh! 🤣
