4 Soccer Simulators

If you like Footle; then you like Footie, that's all there is to it. And if you do, they don't come any better than this little collection from CodeMasters.

To start with, you've got the usual 11-a-side game, with corners, fouls, throw-ins, the works... Coming close on its heels is the 5-a-side game, with faster gameplay and the fast and furious action you'd expect without throw-ins and corners.

If that weren't enough, you then come to the real rough and tumble in Street Soccer. Watch with glee as other players roll around in agony after another of your bone-crunching tackles — there are no rules — but remember not to lose the ball over the wall. They don't grow on trees, you know.

To get you in the right frame of mind, you also get the chance to build up your skills and stamina with the special Soccer Skills game, which includes, sprints and push-ups, as well as the usual shooting and dribbling exercises.

As a compilation, this has got to be excellent value for money, and if you don't like footie, don't worry, there are other compilations coming out soon.
