Have you got what it takes to become an international footballer? Will you rise from your humble beginnings to superstar status? Who knows? Who cares?

Professional Footballer covers a range of footballing features; training, transfers, international matches etc with matches comprising of a series of questions - correct answers gain stars and the more stars you have, the better footballer you become.

There are many problems with Professional Footballer. It doesn't cry or get into fights in toilets, but it does repeat on you giving the feeling that you're doing the same thing over and over.

The only game decisions that you make are percentile chance questions like - "You are in the 12 yard box? What do you do? Cross the ball (60%); Pass the ball back (70%); Dribble the ball (50%); or Dummy (55%)" What type of game is that? Not one that I'd buy.

Professional Footballer is a game with hardly any graphics, mainly text, no sound and no hope. It may appeal to a select few, but no-one else.

A boring, dull and dingy game that has little to offer, even to the hardened simulation fan.
