@Kreativity

Like you well said, it's a matter of opinion. Speaking of which... in your opinion, what makes a player the best in history?

If the answer to the previous question is based on the amount of times he scored, then (as you already know) Pelé scored tons of them. Not only he scored goals by the bucket load, he was able to shoot using both legs, dominated the air game, scored in acrobatic fashion. He also made goals from the penalty spot and taking freekicks.

Going back to my question, if the answer is the amount of titles he won, then he also has tons of them. Mind you, not only did he win local (Brazilian) titles with Santos (more than 15), he guided Santos when they won 2 Copa Libertadores (vs Peñarol & Boca, respectively) and 2 Intercontinental Cups (vs Milan & Inter). Besides all that, he also lifted the World Cup 3 times, playing for his national team.

Yes, the pace nowadays is a LOT faster than it used to be played a few decades ago, but then again, controlling the ball on a pitch without the modern draining system, was also a lot harder. Speaking of which, the ball used in the 60's & 70's? Like kicking a coconut!

So, what makes a player, the best in history?

@Mihael-Keehl I totally agree with you, the voice acting is great. Makes me wonder if Mr. Mc Shea played the whole game, or just the demo (not really, it's just an expression). My only point against the game, is that the bosses were a tad on the "easy" side on Normal difficulty, so if someone wants a challenge, then he/she should try the Tough or Hardcore setting.

@SadPSPAddict I agree with you. It seems someone actually put some vaseline on McShea's toasts (as per his profile), because it seems he was in a sour mood when he wrote this review.

@TruthTellers Best turn-based game I've ever played. The relief you felt when all your squad returned safely to base; the agony when one of them was down, or worse, mind controlled (gulp!)... was indescribable. Oh, the memories.
