Oh my goodness. You have no idea how much I played this game after receiving a christmas gift copy of it. My parents came to hate the very idea of Fifa 98 after seeing how many hours I ploughed into it :) Along with Tomb Raider 2 this was my go-to-title in the late 90s, just an absolute joy to play with.
The music was amazing, Blur and others. The graphics, out of this world at the time. The controls, easy to learn (Ctrl + W for the Cruyff turn!). You had all the 200+ Fifa members available to play in qualifying and then you could play the World Cup 98 itself. Plus you had training mode, seasons from all major leagues and many people's favourite, the indoor games.
All in all, a fantastic game well worth the price. But please, only restore it if you can keep the original soundtrack intact, otherwise it's half the fun.

Jet Set Radio FutureJet Set Radio Future is a video game developed by Smilebit and is the sequel to Jet Set Radio. Similar to the original, it depicts a future Tokyo where freedom of expression is outlawed. The user plays a character in the GG's, a gang of in-line skating graffiti artists who skate around Tokyo covering up rival gangs' graffiti, knocking over Rokkaku police, and dancing to the electric soundtrack. The game uses a cel-shaded style of animation, and has been widely acclaimed for its unique music style, detailed art, and gameplay. Though the game is set in the future, its style and content incorporates many aspects of 1980's old school hip hop culture, as well as 1990's J-pop culture.Trending Action
