"Three lions on a shirt, Jules Rimet still gleaming..." Does the latest little footie game on the Game Boy Color live up to its legendary title, though? Well, yes. There may be nothing outstanding about it, but it's a great little game.

One of the best things about Three Lions is the ability to select different versions of the match music. There are loads of songs including 'Always Look On The Bright Side Of Life' and 'Oops Upside Your Head', but there's no Three Lions! What's that all about?

Graphically, the tiny little pixelated players provide a service, and it plays very easily indeed, as long as the light is right. Every team from the World Cup is in here too, adding a great level of realism to your tournaments. This great title will certainly let an hour or two fly by, if you're good enough at it.
