    After 30 years of dominating the market, EA’s FIFA series will no longer be licensed by FIFA, and will be renamed EA Sports FC while FIFA searches for a new video game partner. The subject of this retrospective, Sensible World of Soccer, was the most popular soccer game from before EA’s domination. Before we enter this new era, let’s take a look at an older one from before FIFA took over.

    Imagine a game like this, updated to use modern tech not for graphics but for all the little details in the game - pitches, stadiums, crowds, sideline details etc. - fully customizable, allowing to make and edit teams and leagues from pub teams right up to global brands - doesn't need licenses just pure sandbox fun - I'd snap that up so fast.

      I agree I think the problem with Sensible Soccer was always that the Swos gameplay was already pretty much perfect.
      The developers didn't need to change the gameplay they, were essentially reinventing the wheel and the new sensible soccers were just not as good. While I can understand the developers might not have been interested in churning out the same gameplay year after year I think if they had worked on all the little details like career mode stadiums youth teams etc they could have had a franchise that rivalled pes/FIFA/football manager etc

    I originally played SWOS on the Amiga, at the time. I believe it was on the Amiga 1200. Fantastic game and I was blown away at the amount of teams you could play in the game. It was the first football game where I could seemingly play leagues within every country. Wanna pick like any Team in the continent of Africa? They were in there. They really weren't kidding when they used WORLD in the title. Especially in that time, no games couldn't claim WORLD in their title and mean it as much as SWOS did. You could literally play it forever if you just wanted to experiment and see what so many teams, from so many countries, played like, and see their players. They just didn't hold back.

    FIFA's golden age was 10 to 14 on the 360. FIFA was solid on PS2, but PES was just on another level then (known as Winning Eleven in the US)
    EA released plenty of tie-in games for the World Cup, Euros, and the Champions League, all of which were good as they were just FIFA with a different skin. The pick of those is the 2010 World Cup game, which is legendary.

    I'd love for anyone to come up with a competitive alternative to EA's stranglehold on sports titles in general, but... as weak as EA's improvements are each year, it takes immense talent and software development infrastructure to do even what EA does. For FIFA to find a development house that can rival it, and WITHOUT all those major league licenses... probably won't happen.

      Also, I wish there were "simpler" versions like this (OK, not this simple, but...) for soccer. I have FIFA 23 and they seem to be trying to find a different pass/shot type with every single button on the gamepad. I'm sure many FIFA fanatics/video game whiz kids think "Wow this is so complex, so many different shot types with so many different buttons! 😄" While I say to myself "Wow, this is so complex, so many different shot types with so many different buttons. ☹" There's gotta be a more intuitive way to alter pass/shot power, or something.
