There are no fewer than 9 soccer games playable in Neogeo, never heard a dickybird about any of them on the forum, thought there may be some Poms interested. Are they just shite soccer games or dont they fit in, so to speak. Super Sidekick..
There are baseball games, golf and soccer, no grid iron ?

Soccer Brawl rules!

After Windjammers it is my next favourite Sports game on NeoGeo.

Oops!!! I think I only love these two and furthermore I only got these two sportsgames, because I am not interested in the others! <IMG SRC="smilies/ohno.gif" border="0"> <IMG SRC="smilies/ohno.gif" border="0"> <IMG SRC="smilies/ohno.gif" border="0">

Windjammers is a great game, I always get beat against the machine, it takes ace reflexes.
Im suprised that there wasnt some kind of american football game released.

There was an American football game released, I think! Haven't played it though.

The soccer games are in general pretty poor, but some people like them. I think SS2 is normaly considered the best...

And windjammers IS cool!

It's called FOOTBALL!!!
Not soccer! <IMG SRC="smilies/ohno.gif" border="0">

IMO Super Sidekicks 3 and Neo Geo Cup '98 rock. They're both great arcade style footie games. I hear the previous Super Sidekicks games are pretty good too.

The only Grid Iron game I know of on AES is Football Frenzy. Never played it, but I think there's a review in the Reviews section of this site. <IMG SRC="smilies/smile.gif" border="0">

Right, right! But we are dealing with an audience that might get a wee bit confused <IMG SRC="smilies/biggrin.gif" border="0">

I couldn't careless. <IMG SRC="smilies/biggrin.gif" border="0">

They're the ones that caused the confusion in the first place - not us!!

I like US Football - a lot - but they need to stop calling FOOTBALL soccer. <IMG SRC="smilies/mad.gif" border="0">

Why can't their game be called soccer? Both sports require you to wear socks.

I'd like to meet the guy who coined the phrase soccer - so I can punch him in the gob...

It's FOOTBALL - the greatest game on earth!!!!!!!!! <IMG SRC="smilies/glee.gif" border="0"> <IMG SRC="smilies/glee.gif" border="0"> <IMG SRC="smilies/glee.gif" border="0">

WE English coined soccer, so we only have ourselves to blame! And Rugby Football was Rugby's original title, so I'm guessing American Football took it's name from that, as it was derived from Rugby rather than Football.

But you are bang on, FOOTBALL IS THE GREATEST GAME ON EARTH! Better than Neogeo, even. Maybe...close call.
