    Is this the worst concept for a video game ever?

    Sheesh....I cant imagine North American sales will be very high....

    Will you Europeans buy this?

    (I curse NFL Blitz for starting this extreme prosports genre. Whats next? Fighting and Curling?)


    *********************************



    Acclaim Entertainment has today announced that it will release Urban Freestyle Soccer for the PC and all three current-generation game consoles later this year. The game, which is in development at UK-based Silicon Dreams, is a four-on-four soccer game that will attempt to re-create the sport as it is played on streets all over the world.
    "Urban Freestyle Soccer will offer a great alternative to the traditional football game and will appeal to a much wider audience," said Ned Browning, brand manager at Acclaim International. "There has never been a football game which takes the best from park soccer and combines it with the raw energy and skill which is seen every day on the streets around the world. Urban Freestyle Soccer will deliver the ultimate arcade football experience ever--with innovation which will revitalize the football genre."

    The game will allow players to assume control of one of 16 gang-based teams in five different gameplay modes including turf wars, home turf, and street challenge cups. Players will have access to an array of different showboating moves such as flicks, volleys, juggles, and scissor kicks, but they will not have to worry about being cautioned for minor fouls or straying into an offside position.

    Urban Freestyle Soccer is currently scheduled for release in both North America and Europe toward the end of this year. We'll bring you more information on all four versions of the game as it becomes available.

      Soccer is gay. They should focus on marketing this to the homosexual market.

                      I market to homosexuals myself. They convert like mad. I merely pointed out that soccer is a gay game and therefore the most likely market is homosexuals. If you don't think it's gay, watch it for ten seconds and get back to me.

                          An excerpt: ( ? seanbaby.com )

                          This game was based on the adventures of Athena as she went on a quest to cure her boredom. She attempts this by walking sideways for a few hundred screens fighting potato bugs and guys that look like giraffes and pigs. You travel from "World of X" to "World of something else" until you can finally get it into Athena's head that she's never going to cure her boredom as long as she's stuck in this damn game. My fellow appreciator of garbage Nintendo games, Big Red, had this to say about Athena:



                          "The point of the whole game is pantently ridiculous (Athena is bored and looking for adventure! Keep her alive in the dangerous land of X!...does this sound like one of those bad D&D adventures we all had as kids, where the DM starts off the story with, 'You happen to be standing at the entrance to a dungeon. What do you do?'), and the extra stuff they tried to add in (catch the magic shell necklace and you can turn into a mermaid!) seemed designed to interest little girls who don't like Nintendo
