The best soccer game for the cube

When I first play this game, it was on a video game shop.
I start playing it and it was fun, but later I could not stop!!.
the game is a blast!!, every soccer team has his own abilities, and what I like the most is when your player jumps in the spotlight, and the game goes in slow motion, then the ball goes like the bullets on the matrix. I ordered this game to my uncle, and I can't wait to play it again.

fun but not enough to unlock

This game is very fun but when you win the season all you get is the stadium you've played in the championship.

The Best Soccer Game Ever Made and That Will Ever Be Made

Sega Soccer Slam in all its glory, is a game that successfully throws out anything that would make a sim soccer experience fun and ingeniously rebuilds there own versoin of soccer that's part Matrix,NBA Jam,Bruce Lee and even throw in a dash of cartoon network. In a nut shell, Slam includes 6 teams with their own strengths and characteristicaly developed players and pits them against each other in a quest, exibition, or tournament game. In a quest mode game, you can buy items to give your team an extra umph in style and skills. If you enter a tourney mode match, 6 teams hold a five game tournament for the tourney cup. There is a practice mode that sets you up in different situations that teaches you about every skill you will need to know to be successful. And there is always an exibition match where you can just have a quick game against an opponent. With the lack of modes in Soccer Slam comes the biggest part of the game, the amazingly addictive gameplay that will have you yelling and holering after every play. The feature that sets this game far away from a sim game or even Blitz or Hitz is the "Killer Kicks" shots and "spotight shots". To get a killer kick you have to fill up your meter by stealing, hiting, shooting, passing, and dekeing. After your killer kick meter is full, you can let it rip, the ball will fly into the air and it becomes a toss up between teams, if you manage to get in the circle that apears and to press the shoot button, your player jumps into the air and the game goes in slow motion, your player does a crazy siccors like kick that when connecting to the ball, the game sets back into reality speed and the ball goes streaking through the air with a look similar to the bullets in The Matrix. Now the spotlight shots are a little different from the killer kicks, to get a spot light shot you have to get the player, with the ball, into a randomly apearing and moving light that shines on the feild. If you succeed in doing this, the spotlight will follow your character, if you hold the shot button your character will do one of several amazing kicks while going in slowmotion, until his or her foot connects with the ball and sends a cannon of a shot through the feild. On top of all the awesome kicks is the super powers that each team has. For example, el fuego turns on fire when you use their specail power, and when toxic uses theire's you can see the player's skeletal structure with radiation exerting from the ball and player themself. With the lasting impression that this game has left on me, I now know that a game does not need modes and unlockables to be superior, but just good old fashoined gameplay, what games used to only be. If my thoughts on this gem have not persuaded you, god have mercy on your damned soul.

Very Unique

He's driving up the sidelines, quickly traps the ball in his feet and jumps over the defender, sends the ball like a bullet over to his teammate, the player heads into a stadium spotlight, OH MY GOD is this guy casting for "The Matrix"? Anyway he's doing flips in the air, he rears back to shoot, AND HE'S SUCKER-PUNCHED WHILE IN THE AIR! He goes down hard, with the other team in control of the ball, and goes on fire! He charges up the field and tackles some skinny guy that has sparks of electricity coming out his ears. A wrestler from Mexico gets control and shoots from midfield...HE SCORES!
End Score: 16 El Fuego, 14 Electra.

A normal "Sega Soccer Slam" match.

If you didn't get a clue from what you just read, this game is out of whack. In a good way. With six three-man one woman teams. Actually you can't tell what the frigg the goalies are because they have heavy body armor on. As I said before, this is one messed (but cool) game. It provides with more fun then some bestselling games that I will not speak of or everyone on earth will be out to get me. This game is almost like NHL HITZ 20-02 because of the three player action. (The goalies can't be controlled, but they're good enough.) And to clear things up the guy that went on fire was really a skinny girl with strange hair. And fire is El Fuego's natural power. Electra uses bolts of electicity. A team which its name escapes me has poison. Overall, this game is new and exciting.

It's in your face fun. A three on Three battle with a soccer ball. A game this unusaul but fun is only seen in SSX Tricky and NBA Street. Nothing is like a spotlight beatemup kicking game. Just play and play and you can't stop until your friends go home. When you buy this you'll play then when you stop then you thank everyone. Then play

This is the BEST game I have ever played in my life.(and I have played TONS.) This game deserves about 18 stars. Soccer Slam is basicly what happened when Sega realized soccer is a phisical sport. The main mode is quest mode which has much more deatails than you would expect. It comes complete with an all-star game, playoffs and money prizes after each game to buy special equipment. (Half Pint's spiked earings!) The stadiums have incredible detail.(I( saw a guy lose his hotdog!)The two player mode is great and the different teams keep things new. O.K. now for the bad stuff. ......... Well that's about it there is no bad things about this game! This is a must buy.

WHEN THE GOING GETS TOUGH.....

When my brother first got this game I took one look at it and said why bother? It is just a simple game with weird moves and kung foo fighting punching soccer matches. But when I actually tried it I was sucked in with the powerups here and there, and the cool movies after each character scored. Which gets annoying after awhile especially when its my brothers characters dancing around after they catch up to me. But what I like about the most in this game is how tough it is. When I first started playing a game against my brother it was 6-2 me at the end of the first quarter. I had used the same manuver: dribble the ball up the middle and when I was in front of the net pass it to the guy at the side who would score for my team. But in the whole second half the strategy did not work because the goalie covered the SIDES! The game had learned from what I had done in the previous half! My brother did not learn because you can't control your own goalie and my players on the sides of the nets were always open. I ended up losing to my brother 10-9 in the second half GRRRRRRRRRRRRR! SO keep this in mind and that the thin players usually score the most (beats me why). WHEN THE GOING GETS TOUGH THE TOUGH GETS GOING!

Sega Soccer is back again!!

Look out! The best soccer game on the market for gamecube is here! Wow, I don't know were to start! There is so much that is great about this game! The graphics are exellent. Another thing great about this game is the codes you can get. Quest mode is the Season play in this game. You can choose one of 6 All-Star teams with awesome 3 on 3 gameplay. This multi-player game is the only sports game to match-up to NHL Hitz. Each player has it's own attitude and strengths. Plus, no penalties! You can go up and slide tackle the golie or hit opponents. The games are usually high scoring but they're close! Each team has it's own Homefeild, but each are based on each team. You can also earn money (only in Guest mode) to buy items to strengthen you're players! A great game this is, so go to [a local video rental store] and rent this game!
