Mario and company have finally done it. They broken into almost every sport. Baseball, Golf, Tennis and now they have gone into the world of competitve soccer. In a world where all of the characters have anger management issues, the soccer is fast and furious with little to no complexity in term of core gameplay.

During the gameplay, you kick, slide and score your way to victory. Your main goal as always is to defeat Bowser's team in the end. With a field surronded by an electrical field, the game is soccer with a twist.

The graphics are only average and the sound is only there. But the main draw is in the engaging multiplayer tournaments and grudge matches. You can play with 2-4 people and have a blast doing so.

The verdict is try before you buy and buy if you have friends who like Mario games.
