about

So there is this World Cup thing going on in Brazil right now. Sadly my home team (Portugal) didn't do very much and is back home already. As I release this album there are only two games left, tomorrow's game will decide who finishes 3rd while on Sunday the Final match will decide who gets to be World Champion for the next four years. I admit not being much of a football fan (or soccer to my American friends) but I do love me some video games like "Sensible Soccer", "Kunio Soccer League", "RedCard", "Virtua Striker 3", etc. The more arcade ones if you will. One such game was a lunch day title over here in Europe for the Super Nintendo in 1992. A smart move considering how many football fans live in the Old Continent. However, I could only afford a single game and we all know that game turned out to be "F-Zero". But it was not long before one of my friends got Human's "Super Soccer"! An arcade style football game with a viewpoint that always reminded me of "Striker" for Amiga and PC, it features 16 international teams all gunning for the cup. If you are good enough you will be shocked at the end ceremony when the referee steals the cup and forces to face the inhuman Nintendo / Human team. It was quite unexpected and unique twist that still brings a
smile to my face when I see it. That game might have been the last time we saw it in Europe, however it sprung another four sequels in Japan and even one game for Playstation. I admit, I miss Human a lot, they made fantastic games. This EP is a tribute to both the game and the currently ongoing FIFA World Cup 2014in Brazil. The game really has some fantastic tunes. Hope you enjoy and this brings great memories of playing "Super Soccer" with friends!
