Amazon.co.uk If you've been playing games for some time--and by "some time" I mean long enough actually to have a Spectrum or Amiga computer collecting dust in your closet--it's likely that you'll remember Speedball 2. Well, that classic game from the Bitmap Brothers has spawned a new sibling. Speedball 2100 is not necessarily a completely new game, but more of a reworking of an old friend--and growing where it needed to grow. Based around a combination of a soccer-management sim, a soccer-arcade sim, and a beat-em-up, with its main inspiration coming from Real Tennis, this isn't your average game. Your task is to play, manage, and guide your team through a futuristic league that's controlled by large corporations. Along the way, not only do you have to beat the other teams, but also you've got to collect money and power-ups to fund new uniforms and the ever-expensive transfer fees. Although difficult, this game will keep you going for sometime as you battle your way through the leagues, knockout cups, and championships. This makes for a great multiplayer game, too, as you try to build better teams to beat your opponents. Many a sleepless night was lost on the original, and I'm sure the same will be the case with Speedball 2100. --Stuart Miles Pros: Improved game of yore Great as a multiplayer game Cons: Not a completely new game
