You'd have to pay me £249to play it - genuinely terrible game.

As someone who loved Kickoff on the Amiga do yourself a favour and don't bother.

Still £2.49 too much. Awful game.

This is meant to be absolutely awful, will wait to see what Sociable Soccer will be like.

As others have already commented, I was a massive Kick Off, Kick Off 2 and Goal! fan back in the day, I leaped at this on release...shocker! Buggy, awful, flabby. Avoid.

Loved the Kick Off and Goal games back in the day (always preferred them to Sensible, but I did like that as well!)
I'm watching out for Sociable as well, but since that is a while away, are there any other options for a retro style football game at the moment?

There's a few on Steam.
Kopanito All-Stars Soccer Super Arcade Football (Early Access)
I've sunk almost 150 hours into Kopanito. Love it. SAF is gonna be good too.

You should Hear what Dino Dini has to say about Jon hare and sensible soccer on the podcast retro shock episode 22. He comes across bitter and a bit of a bad sport claiming he was the person who "invented" the term after touch.

thought that on release date but bought this as update takes away the issues. And if you dont like retro you deffo wont like kick off.

Launch was rocky but due to constant updates/patching this is now back to Amiga levels of fun again, well worth it at this price. Also Steam PC version is on the way...
Still just as much fun as I remember, the Dark Souls of football games ;o)
