    One of my favorite titles ever, the gameplay is really funny, I don't be a fan of the soccer games but this title is incredible, the crazy characters wow, all be amazing in this game. SEGA Soccer Slam is a great classic.

    The best sports game on xbox, but hard to get your hands on it these days. If you can find it get it. (works on 360 also).

    This game rocks. Furious mix of fighting and sports. Before Deathrow this WAS the best multiplayer sports game. Definitely worthwhile.

    It's a great game. The characters are so fun. The only drawback is that it's a little simple.

    It’s 2019 and this game is still amazing after all these years. Even the graphics hold up and haven’t aged bad at all. The gameplay is still smooth as ever and still is such a blast to play. This truly deserves a remaster. I can understand most time licensing gets in the way of bringing back these older sports games but this just has no name teams and stadiums.

I can understand most time licensing gets in the way of bringing back these older sports games but this just has no name teams and stadiums. To this day if I’m having some beers with some friends. We always play this game just because it’s pick up and play easy fun and such a riot. If your looking for a real soccer experience then stay far far away..this game is all out mayhem and kick butt. If you can find a copy of this game then do yourself a favor and buy it. You will not regret it.… Expand

    Better than Midway’s "RedCard," and more violent than the average ice hockey game, Sega Soccer Slam is pure arcade fun, albeit not very long-lived.

    The world's videogame players require this monstrosity like they need an extra hemorrhoid, a tattoo of child actor Emmanuel Lewis on their buttocks, and the director's cut of "The Adventures of Ford Fairlaine." [Fall 2002, p.119]

    Shrinks the field, boosts the action and scoring, and its multiplay makes for a party that's even more fun than passing around pitchers in a sports bar at seven in the morning.
