Lauren Tyler Posted June 13, 2014 Share Posted June 13, 2014 (edited) RealSports Soccer: 15-4. Pele's Soccer: 11-13. I can't believe he endorsed such a lousy game. Edited June 13, 2014 by LarcenTyler Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DT Kofoed Posted June 13, 2014 Share Posted June 13, 2014 From the manual for Pele: "The Referee The black lines you see on the left side of your televisionscreen are the referee and the linesmen who assist him (seeFigure 4). The referee blows the whistle to start and stopplay and positions the ball for kickoffs and penalty plays." Only time I've ever seen a game try and justify those lines as both intentional and integral to the game! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karokoenig Posted June 13, 2014 Share Posted June 13, 2014 (edited) Perfect time to dig up this shining gem.

CapitanClassic Posted June 13, 2014 Share Posted June 13, 2014 Vocelli, I changed to Brazil about 0.5 hours later. Is that ok? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrabbler15 Posted June 13, 2014 Share Posted June 13, 2014 I think the referees of the games Brazil plays will lean to the host country on any marginal calls. So my prediction is Germany and Brazil in the finals, with Brazil winning on a controversial goal/no-goal call. . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mister-VCS Posted June 14, 2014 Share Posted June 14, 2014 Real Sports: Soccer: 25 - 5 Bonus: Netherlands vs. Brasil: Brasil wins (I am sure Mr. Blatter choose the right referee for the final...) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oyamafamily Posted June 14, 2014 Share Posted June 14, 2014 (edited) My predictions: SPAIN x GERMANY - Germany wins Germany completes 24 years without winning a World Cup Tournament. I'm using 24 as the magical number, based on the following episodes: 1) Brazil obtained the 3rd World Championship in 1970 (Mexico), and the 4th World Championship in 1994 (USA) - 24 years. 2) Italy obtained the 3rd World Championship in 1982 (Spain), and the 4th World Championship in 2006 (Germany) - 24 years. 3) Based on the logic presented above, Germany will obtain the 4th World Championship this year (3rd World Championship was obtained in 1990 - ITALY).

karokoenig Posted June 14, 2014 Share Posted June 14, 2014 (edited) Getting on the board. Pele's Soccer: 9 -10. I am being fancy this week and play this game on some pirate cart that just says "Football" and even has an American Football scene on the label - yet it's Football. I mean what you call Soccer, and we call Football here in Europe, as any civilized person should. Real Sports Soccer: 22 - 4. Yeah... that setting IS easy. Umm... it seems that I can't upload any picture right now. Always gives me a "failed" message. Probaly just a temporary site issue. Will try to upload later.

CapitanClassic Posted June 14, 2014 Share Posted June 14, 2014 Yeah, Real Sports soccer is extremely easy. I actually used to be pretty good at Pele Soccer. I could score in the 10s (or maybe 20s) and hold the computer at 1-3 goals, but I seem to have lost my edge.

Vocelli Posted June 14, 2014 Author Share Posted June 14, 2014 (edited) Ok. Updated and on the scoreboard: Realsports Soccer: 14-8 A bit shallow. I thought this would be a bit more fun. Pele: 3-6 I am not good at this but I found it much more fun. Vocelli Oh... And I guess I will be against BRAZIL!

StanJr Posted June 15, 2014 Share Posted June 15, 2014 If there is one thing I know nothing about, nor have any interest in, it is Soccer. Luckily, I enjoy video games, so I think I will be able to at least muddle through with scores if not prognostication. Here are my pathetic scores, RS Soccer really, really sucks as a game. Pele's Soccer may not look like much, but at least it feels like a video game. There's a freaking goalie at least. Plus vertical scrolling and fireworks! RS Soccer 19-10 Pele's Soccer 6-7 (I expect to win none of these games) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
