What's new? Well, not much really. CD sound and a European data disk, but not much more. But if you don't have this (on Amiga) already, then SS is the soccer game to have. Alan ----(rev. 2) Well, here's Sensi on the CD, so what do we get for the cash? Not a lot more than version 1.1 of the floppy actually. There are FEWER crowd chants, and the total atmosphere of the game is lost. This version has fewer features than the latest Megadrive version - its only saving grace is the low price. Oh yes, I almost forgot: control on the Standard C= controller is also diabolical - I can't wait until Cheater bring out their joypad range! By the way, this was the first CD32 game to be cheaper on CD than its floppy based counterpart....
