On to episode 3, one more blog post, and finally a date for the return of the show itself! Tune in on Wednesday 29th October for episode 6: ABC Monday Night Football! But for now, we’re talking 90 Minutes European Prime Goal.
Box Art
Back to the bottom of the barrel with this one! Nothing says “Buy this game!” More than some dude’s knee! Cheers Namco! The back of the box is fine, I guess. Basic information on the game and fairly nicely laid out screenshots, I am super intrigued by the black and white photo though, because that doesn’t look like 90’s football to me, so why is it there?!

Wrap Up
More fun than I expected with a good amount of game modes, but still ultimately very average, especially from a single player perspective. It would be a lot more fun with a friend, and they tried a few things that would have been fairly new at the time. There are better football games to come, but I’m positive there are worse ones too! I gave it 2.5, and I stick by that.
