There is a choice of six viewing perspectives but unfortunately only a couple of them could be deemed playable. The goal line camera is virtually impossible to use in a two player game and could only be managed in a single player game with the aid of binoculars when the action is down field, the same could be said for the stand view. That leaves Plan, an overhead view, and Touchline, which is definitely the most playable on offer. Pausing the game during play offers the facility to finely adjust the camera angle in, out, up and down by using the shoulder buttons therefore you should find at least one view to your liking. Sounds and Effects Commentary is once again provided by Barry Davies who names each of the players in possession of the ball.
Praise is offered for slick passing movements and skillful touches while poor shooting is ridiculed.
Comments can often become repetitive, but no more than any other soccer game. The crowd play an important part of creating the big match atmosphere as their tempo rises when nearing goal, although when the ball is being passed around the midfield area I swear I could hear them singing 'what a load of rubbish'. Perhaps it was just the way I was performing. Playability Actua Soccer Club Edition allows the player to perform over 40 different kinds of shots and passes, including diving headers, back heels and volleys. However you are initially only informed of the basic skills of passing long and short, tackling, running, shooting and chipping therefore the remaining repetoire of actions must be discovered during play.
