World Championship Soccer ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ In World Championship Soccer you have a choice of one-off matches or a set of international matches similar to the World Cup competition, split into 6 groups with qualifying games lasting 3 days, you can play a friend or the computer, if a match is not decided at full-time you have to take penaties. It uses a overhead free-scrolling display of the pitch, controlled by joystick which at times seems very difficult when tackling or taking corners, but overall passing seems easier than some soccer games. You can choose your own team to play the International option from a squad of well known players, other teams provide a stiff opposition. Between matches you can check on how other teams are progressing, which at times can be very useful. Taking part in the championship are 24 international teams that seem to take on similar characteristics to their real life counterparts from their respective countries.
