    Never played the game but I have heard of it. Even for a football game it seems rather repetitive, for me personally the acrobatic goals and hacking players down would get tiresome rather quickly but I guess they tried something new as Urban Freestyle Soccer and FIFA Street weren’t around yet.

    Thanks for sharing this. I’m a Norwegian teacher, and grew up with Actua Soccer. It was the start of a dedication and years ahead that I could never could have imagined. I have talked to most the programmers, designer and other people in the team of the game. After years of work and setbacks I got the source code of the Macintosh version in 2014. I had two journeys to Sheffield prior 2014, and picked up the source code backups in Sweden eventually. It is a shame that all original backups were lost when Infogramers (ATARI that bought Gremlin in 1999) closed their doors. Everything from the Sheffield office was thrown and the building demolished. This game got an extremely interesting history, and that team worked with a passion and interest far beyond what the boring professionalized game industry today does. It’s two different worlds apart. It is truly a game with its own spirit. Far beyond anything from that period. Just think of a game that even got the legendary Arne Scheie as commentator on the Norwegian version. Yes, the game was republished in many countries to multiple language. The team was interested to reach as many as possible with the game. There are an American, German, Spanish, Portuguese, Japanese and Norwegian version with commentators of their language. In the US the game is named VR Soccer and is just as famous as Actua Soccer, distributed by Interplay. In Norway, a unknown company (for myself) called AddOn, published "Fotball Feber", which would be football fever in English as the Norwegian version of Actua Soccer. However it never really made any success, and I probably got one of very few copies that is still around in my collection. Actua soccer 1 was a totally different game with a different team and source code. AS 2,3 and (4) were a different source code by a different team. Many of the programmers in the first version were headhunted to EA. Eventually several of them formed their own company. The main programmer of version 1 still works for EA today. The Premier manager was not a Gremlin coded game. It was a republish with English menus of the Spanish Dynamic Multimadias successful series called PCFutbol. They went into liquidation in the same period as Infogrames.

      Wow, Thanks Thomas! It must've been amazing to get the chance to speak to the programmers! There's no doubt that these guys put their heart and soul into the game. Thanks for all of the extra info. I like to keep my videos short and sweet with just enough nostalgia that doesn't overwhelm people, but I'm sure a lot of people would love to read the extra details you've taken the time write. In which case, I've pinned your comment to the top of the video. Hope that's okay! 😁

      @@RetroSamBam Thanks for your feedback. I’m delighted that you use time to reply. I’ve been on this journey since the 90s. Back in 1995 I was only a toddler at 10 years. It’s been very interesting to talk to the programmers and other team members. However sadly many of the programmers of the Actua Soccer 1 hasn’t been easy going. Those I met in Sheffield were mostly programmers of other games like Lee Hickey, Asad Habib and Sie Barlow. Amazing guys all of them. However I did a trip to Sweden to Julian Gardner, the porter of the mac version, and had a chat with him. That’s the final talk we have had together. However he was the only one reaching out to me of anyone back in 2006 when he mentioned he did the port. I think Julian is amazing and I am very much thankful to his effort. The designer, Wayne Laybourn, is a fantastic and emphatic guy indeed, just like the PS1 interview video sort of reveals. He also gives me a feedback when I’ve asked him for some details. I also talked in early days with the musician, himself in person (Neil Biggin), which have written a bit in this thread already. My impressions is that he is a very social, professional and positive guy. I’ve also talked a lot with Paul Hiley, which is a truly amazing and intelligent guy. He did some parts of the motion captures and work on a pitch code for the game, which was eventually used in the game. Of the owner at Gremlin I’ve been in touch with Barry Hatch. He is still in the gaming industry. He has been very generous with me compared to most others. He used time, even if he is a very busy guy, on both trips I did to Sheffield to meet me. Not to mention the owner Martin Holley of Runecraft, the company Julian work for. Gremlin and Runecraft work a lot together for example for these Actua ports where Julian was a contractor. He had never touch a Mac previously, but was extremely talented and mastered it quickly. He did the port in 6 months. After evaluating the port myself I’m truly impressed. Martin described Julian as the most intelligent and talented programmer he had ever worked with. 👍🏻 Sadly many of the programmers of version one left on bad terms. They were not good payed, and that probably haven’t been a very good start point for me to work on. My experience and impressions is that Ian wasn’t the easiest guy around and a true business man so to speak. 🗣️ He even holds on to the IPs today like an angry dog, and there isn’t little chance there would be any new version with the Actua Soccer name around during his lifetime. Many ex-Gremlins, like the PS1 porter Philip Rankin, works at SUMO in Sheffield to day. Those guys, without mention names, told me to keep my hands off. They don’t seem friendly at all. There is certainly a lot of mixed feelings about their old workplace. I did at one time make a history document. There is a lot you could have mentioned indeed. I am very glad and feel humbled for anyone that did accept to meet or talk to me. For me this journey will continue throughout my life. Actua shaped my childhood and the history is extremely interesting. That the programmers are very hard to get makes it probably even more interesting as you have to go to secondary sources to try to figure out things. I wish I had a big audience I could have somehow could have used as a platform to get the story told after all that research, but sadly I don’t got that. 👍🏻

    It's a bit stupid desing because you cannot advance in the next series if you cannot qualify in top 6. And the difficulty is so hard even on intermediate for the casual player that basically you cannot continue.

    Funny you would say what you said in the title. Because I did complete it without cheating just 2 years ago. And the level you mentioned at 6:22 was moderately easy to finish. When that level starts, just take the heavy tank, shoot and destroy ONE turret as soon as you can, then re-enter the base to get repaired. Rinse and repeat until you have cleared around 5-6 turrets, after which you will be able to kill 2 enemy turrets each time your re-enter the base and exit again. Then after eliminating 5-6 more turrets, you can stay on the map a reasonably long time on the map before needing repairs.
