Sensible Soccer 92/93 Meets Bulldog Blighty – Amiga Power Cover Disk

This is off the Amiga Power January 1993 cover disk – Sensible Soccer 92/93 Meets Bulldog Blighty.

It’s three different versions of Sensible Soccer:

1944 Winston’s Wingless Wonders
This is a Cannon Fodder mash up game between the Allies and the Nazis, and the ball is a hand grenade. This means that the bounce can be unpredictable which can cause confusion, but the real twist here is that after a minute or so, the grenade ‘ball’ will start to flash, and then blow up. Any players in the vicinity will be killed, and out for the rest of the game (and their life presumably).
1966 Alf’s Amiga Powered Army
This is in black and white and is a recreation of England vs West Germany in the 1966 World Cup Final at Wembley. Not sure if the Russian linesman is on duty to give England and Sir Geoff Hurst a hand again though.
1993 Graham’s Giftless Grafters
Graham Taylor’s England team who were a bit crap at the time this cover disk was released. Later on that year, England would get screwed by a dubious referee in a game against the Netherlands who didn’t send off Ronald Koeman for a professional foul on David Platt, and he went on to score a free kick. England then failed to qualify for the 1994 World Cup in USA. Not that I’m bitter or anything. We were really crap back then anyway!

All three games are timeless, and they end when either team scores a goal. You can play each game as a two player as well. Great fun!
