In this video we're making another nostalgic dive with the Sensible Soccer International Edition on the Mega Drive with the help of KEGA Fusion and what is worth noting is that the gameplay still holds up pretty well even by today's standards and it's still as fun as ever!

Sensible Soccer, often called Sensi, is a legendary football video game series which was highly popular in the early 1990s and which still retains a cult following. It was developed by Sensible Software and first released for Amiga and Atari ST computers in 1992 as well as for the PC.

The series was created by Jon Hare and Chris Yates, as a successor to their previous football game MicroProse Soccer (1988), which in turn was inspired by the arcade video game Tehkan World Cup (1985).

It featured a zoomed-out bird's-eye view (the majority of games until then such as Kick Off and Matchday used a closer top-down or side view), editable national, club and custom teams and gameplay utilising a simple and user-friendly control scheme. One of the defining gameplay elements was the "aftertouch" feature, which enabled effective and impressive swerves.

The game topped charts such as Amiga Power's "All Time Top 100". The next iteraion of the game, Sensible World of Soccer 1995/96, received review scores of 96% from both Amiga Power and Amiga Format, the joint highest mark given for any game by either magazine.

Sensible World of Soccer (SWoS) combined a 2D football game with a comprehensive manager mode and featured a career mode that effectively was what Master League later became for PES fans.

The career game mode in Sensible World of Soccer enables players to manage a club through 20 seasons. Basic manager options include a transfer market (buy/sell players).

Every team has a squad of 16 players, by default. Every player has individual skills (speed, tackling, heading, finishing, shooting, passing, ball control). Player prices are calculated relative to their skills. Players can be transferred from other clubs by offering an amount of money and/or own players in a part exchange deal. To be able to buy stronger players and to keep them it is necessary to earn money with success in the various competitions. Job offers from other clubs and also from a national team may roll in, depending on the success, exactly like Master league in PES.

Sensible World of Soccer includes contemporary season data of professional football from around the world, with a total number of 1,500 teams and 27,000 players and it features the most comprehensive custom league/tournament editor ever seen in a football video game, still unrivaled even by today's offerings.

In this era before FIFA & PES, Kick Off and Sensible Soccer were the cream of the crop of all football video games released for home computers and consoles till then (of course excluding arcade exclusive games like Super Sidekicks for the Neo Geo that was in a league of its own).

Sensible Soccer is a game that I personally loved as a child and one that I played for thousands of hours with my brother, cousins and friends for years.
