"this is football 2002"

i was thinking of getting it but some of my mates said it was a load of crap i would appreciate it if you would tell me about it and should i get it

I got straight into the button config straight away form the demo I have.

Offense:

X - Pass
O - Shoot
Square - Long Pass
Triangle - Through ball

R1 - Hold to Sprint
R2 - Deliberate dive
L1 - Tap to spin
L2 - Havent used it yet

Defense:

Square - Tackle
Triangle - Shove or something like that

Havent used any others......

As many of you know...when this game was released i couldn't stop talking about it....Pro Evo had to get the handcuffs out (dunno how that stopped me talking) But it is seriously good
u can instantly tell a premiership match from a international...superb.

I Rented the game last year. Only played it for a few days but I definitely found it to be a pretty good game.

Although the button config can take time gettin used to...especially if you play pro evolution everyday like me :)

*looks puzzled as to why people were mentioning his name*

eeerrrr..... yeah....

*puts on novelty disguise*

No sorry dude, I cant help you..... I dont even know who this Hercules! fella is.....

*big gust of wind blows the novelty diguise off*

eeerrr.....

*runs*

Right, now ive got that out of the way :D i'll tell you the stuff ive heard.

I havent got it yet but have claimed it from what ive heard about it.

Loads and loads of teams from the internationals like England and France to the premiership guys, Man U, Liverpool..... division 1 teams (dont know any of these) and even the French teams like PSG (I think).
You can be promoted and relagated if you do good or bad.

Loads of tournaments for you to play.

FIFPro license.

Good graphics.

Great commentating.

Ive got the demo of it though and the gameplay is spot on for me.

Im one that doesnt exactly like a deadly serious football game and so Pro Evolution was rules out in my mind.
I wanted a really fun and quite realistic game. And thats what I should be getting when it arrives.
Its a mixture of fun and seriousness. Not too hard but not too easy.

Lots of great things to do.

And to top it all off, a great price. For £20, you cant lose.

I cant wait for it.

If theres anything else you want to know before you go out and buy it then just gimme a shout in here and i'll see if I can be of some assistance.
When I get it (soon hopefully, tomorrow or Saturday) then i'll tell you more and write a review for you.

:)

thats good because in the fifa series that dosent happen

yes...and u can get promoted to the prem if you win div 1...or get relegated if you lose the prem.

has it really got division 1 teams on

thanks i will get it

that should be over 20 different cups/leagues :D whoops.

Alright mate. I had a long convo with Herc about this. It's a fantastic game. It has plenty of teams...Premiership, Div1, german ect. U can play internationals, Club team seasons. You can play over 2 different cups/leagues. There are school boy jumpers for goalpost cups.
As for gameplay. Not bad. More of a kikaround than a professional style. Fun none the less. Its got great sound. ver atmosheric. It's certainly one of my fave games at at 19.99 it's a bargain!
