Two red cards, five goals, five minute match, changed rules: Chucky blew his top



In regard to British, Actua Soccer (1996) and Actua Soccer 3 (1998). Actua Soccer 3 from today...

A few months ago I bought new IFYOO gamepads for my Windows 10 laptop, and old Windows XP desktop from 2000. The gamepads on the XP changed how Actua Soocer 3 (1998) is played. The huge curved shots are no longer possible to use and the shooting is now more realistic. I can now safely state that after months of practice with an altered game, after playing with the old rules since 1998, I have mastered the new way the game is played. But it is more difficult to score, but now only slightly.

For whatever bizarre reason, my Actua and UEFA soccer posts receive better than average pageviews, so I post this as a public service. I have managed to finally find a PC version of of Actua Soccer (1996) which I originally played on UMAX, a Mac clone. This too has new rules of playing, but this is mainly that the speed is increased and the opponents are better quality than previously.

It is also a very difficult game at times.

Chucky actually blew his top, he was so frustrated with the computer simulation and cheating with the new Actua Soccer (1996).

I would like to post an entry reviewing Actua Soccer (1996), it is actually the American, Virtual Soccer 96, version, but need to find a decent way to film it and my record screen software does not work. Cheap... I apologize for the quality of this recording, but, how the game works can be seen.

In the works are plans to find a workable (Windows 10 or Windows XP) version of Actua Soccer 2 (1997) and attempt to master it. I have never played it...
