#PA2037, Published by Atari Corp. In this episode I cover the first of two soccer games for the Lynx, World Class Fussball/Soccer, also known as World Class Soccer, released for the Lynx in 1992. Included are statistics for the game and a run-down on how to play it, along with reviews and ratings, some fun facts and trivia, and some listener feedback about the game. And Monty and I get into a spirited (and ultimately futile) discussion about the differences between soccer, football, and fussball. “Did you see that ludicrous display last night?! The thing about Arsenal is, they always try and walk it in!” WORLD CLASS FUSSBALL/SOCCER VITAL STATISTICS Release Date: September of 1992. Initial Retail Price: $24.99 (US); £19.99 (UK).
