Codemasters has announced it's set to bring Sensible World of Soccer to Xbox Live Arcade this summer, describing the decision as a "no-brainer".
Since the revelation that Sensible World of Soccer would grace both PC and Xbox Live Arcade, the UK developer has remained tantalisingly tight-lipped regarding the matter. However, in an update on the official SWOS forum, Nick Pili, director of casual gaming at Codemasters, has finally unveiled some more information on the Live Arcade version.
"Sensible World of Soccer, GRID Autosport and Fable Heroes are coming to Xbox One Backward Compatibility today"

"Why am I prompted to sign into Twitter just to read the article? Is it just a tweet?"
Maybe to show the BC Xbox Team your support, like i did. Your call. ;)
I show that $$$ support. I refuse social media. N4g is my daily dose of net poison lol
Fingers crossed I get an Xbox one s for my birthday. I've already started getting a few BC games already like lost oddeaey
Lost Odyssey is a great choice!
Loved it and wishing for a sequel or prequel after completing the game I wanted more!!!
i had an xbox one s last year that i got for my birthday collected a huge collection of BCC titles it was great but had to sell it to get iphone for daughter for xmas lol il get collecting again need to get hold of blue dragon thats imo the best bcc game as it feels like a remaster locked at 30 with higher sample rate
I remember playing Sensible Soccer on the Amiga back in the 90's. That game was legendary for its time. Couldn't play it now though, can't deal with the graphics.
There was once a time when other football games existed other than the annual FIFA/PES war. Here's a look at 3 such gems.
GamePointsNow takes a look at just why couch co-op could soon be a thing of the past thanks to our new shiny consoles.
It really dissapoints me that couch co-op/ split screen is slowly dissapearing. I really liked going to a friends house and chilling with beers and doing nothing but rotting on split screen. I understand the whole online co-op and all, but i still like the option to see and play with friends in person. I would really love more support. When resistance first came out on ps3, split screen for that was epic!
This is why it is not next gen for me... I want choice between online multiplayer and local multiplayer, having just one of the two, is bad, even though, I would choose local over online anytime. I am not a big fan of sitting alone at home playing games online against people I dont know.
Its already dead. Its funny because this one of the main reason to game on consoles now its fading away. Fast I might add. I dont remember the last time I seen local coop. It one of the reasons why mostly playing on PC Dont bother me, that and the ton of games plus the gfx . Oh n free mp
True, consoles become more and more like PCs, but all act like its better on PCs, then if you ask why this console is better than the other console, they mainly say things, which were PC things.
It won't kill it off, but it will cause the customers who want that experience (for instance, the Wii crowd) to leave the market. X1 is poised to be the best couch co-op system in the regard, what with Kinect being integrated and all. But the price and brand image won't give it the same oooomph as the Wii had.
lol wut? Even though I _completely_ disagree with the Kinect part I have to add that I enjoyed PlayRoom more than any Kinect game on X360. I still have a few videos of us messing around with the PlayRoom and we even watched them a second time because it was so fun.
I just hope somewhere somehow it doesn't. Last gen started it and its so frustrating really. It should be standard requirment for a co-op game
Couch co op is the first thing i look at when a game says "multiplayer" on the box lol. I feel like couch co op is coming back strong actually. You just need to know where to look.
-Double dragon neon (beat this with my gf. Fantastic game i loved it)
-Dead nation (co op at its best in my opinion)
-Resident evil 5/6 (they kinda suck but still fun with friends)
-CoD (yeah i know its CoD but its still fun with friends too)
-Uncharted 3 (fun as hell to play with a friend)
-Diablo 3 (havent played it yet but i know i'll like it)
-Borderlands series
- Gears of War (not big on the series but people love it)
- Dragons Crown
- PS All stars battle royal
- Donkey Kong
- Mario
- LittleBigPlanet
- Guacamelee
That list Dont look like a come back . Old game remakes, old games, and genres that expect to have local coop(sidescrollers) do not equal. Most maybe Dont want to spend time and resources on it especially how console gamers are starting to care more about gfx.
I honestly cant understand what your saying for most of that paragraph but i gathered that you pretty much just brushed all those games off like nothing. Co op is still here and will only get stronger. Its not like the old days but its still here. Annd all those games do count by the way. You cant say "it doesnt count" because those ARE co op games. Theres a whole bunch of other games that i didnt even mention
Maybe, but it won't stay down. Just look at the way board games are resurging - people want to play together, and videogames need to remember that.
Jees I want this game bad!!!
I played it so often on my Amiga 500, many hours of gaming fun on this one game. I still have my Amiga including the diskettes of many, many games and ofcourse Sensible Soccer... I will instantly buy this on the 360. Don't mind about the costs, I'll just buy it. Now gimme this one right now!
This might be one arcade game i buy. I remember u could pull off wicked curl shots on the amiga version, good stuff. Summer seems so far off tho
