anyone else got this??
i have to say i'm disappointed. I thought ISS was the more "arcadey" brother of Pro Evolution. Maybe it's just me, but i thought it was a bit slow for an arcade game and overly fiddly. There seem to be a fair few issues with it too:
1. the player select is dubious at best, it always seems to change to the most unhelpful player :-\
2. pressing long pass results in booting the ball wildly into touch an awful lot
3. there doesn't seem to be a tackle button that won't give away a foul.
4. not option to use the D-pad for control :(
maybe it's just me but i'm having a hard time warming to this game, am i missing something?
to think that the money i spent on this could've gone towards Viewtiful Joe.. dang! ;)

I liked ISS2.
Certainly no Pro Evo, but quite a good game all the same.
ISS98 still remains the king.

Is the commentary still very DISTURBING!?
Well, all football games are like that.
They didn't show my spaces in my post :(
You have to use the ALT0160 character.
The commentary in ISS is genius.
And now ENGLAND!!!!! have possession of the ball, that's a goal for ENGLAND!!!!!! ESTONIA!!!!!! must be very disappointed.

I read about ISS 3 and it sount really bad. Personally, I'll stick with FIFA, at least the commentary (Sp?) isn't as bad.

*LMAO*
it's funny......... because it's true, i turned it off on my 3rd game.
yeah, this hasn't been fixed, it's still appalling, most of it is in a different tone of voice. it's madness, GC games are on mini-dvd's so there's LOADS of room!! maybe if there were less pointless menu animations or movie clips for company logos (seriously, just a picture would be fine!) then there'd be room to make the commentary passable..
i'm still giving it the benefit of the doubt, but if it's not grabbed me by the weekend then it's getting traded against viewtiful joe :)
ISS on the SNES and fifa 98 for the PSone are still the best footie games around. oh, and sensible soccer, NATURALLY! :)
