ISS64 introduces this element to the game world and it is fantastic. With one press of a button and an eagle eye to spot the run of a striker, you can send them away and through on goal with the defence looking as confused as the American defence in France 98. The AI is very, very good. The computer opponents attack with flowing, passing movements equalling that of European champion sides, and your own players move around to give you space, draw defenders away, or make an early run for a pass. Shooting is also realistic.
Most goals come after neat play, and then a good shot into the bottom corner of the goal.
The graphics are also fairly sweet. ISS64 is an excellent game, truly worth your hard earned cash. And if you do find it at a bargain price, it's a damn good alternative to its flashier sequel. International Superstar Soccer 64 2. International Superstar Soccer '98 3.
