Active Soccer DX 2 is by no means a soccer simulation. Instead its focus is on fast paced, arcade action from a top-down view that utilizes the game’s simplistic control scheme. It’s because of this simplistic three-button control scheme that users are able to pick this title up and feel somewhat comfortable within hours and even minutes of play.

The game does provide a seven-step tutorial to help familiarize yourself with these controls, and even allows you to change the control scheme, but custom mapping was somehow excluded as the sprint button is mysteriously mapped to the “Y” button. Once you take the pitch, you’ll notice awkward animations and moments where the rules of soccer are blatantly ignored. As an overall theme, the developers missed out on a lot of bugs that can lead to head-scratching moments.

Everyone is entitled to their own opinion but I will say that minus the occasional bugs and the frustrating menus this is a very fun pick up and play for 15 bucks. Especially when I don't want to fire up a full match in FIFA or PES. And as a long time roster maker I love the ability to edit all the player and team names, even though the sensitive controls in the menu make it somewhat frustrating

Hi!

Unfortunately people don't talk about this one - Total Soccer/ Total Soccer 2000.
Although it was released in 1998 for PC, it works fine today and at higher resolutions ( HD / 4k) and it's what soccer games should be : playable. Using a usb numeric keyboard helps to feel that we're in the pitch.
