Great Soccer (or World Soccer, depending on where you played it) was one of those early Sega Master System sports titles that tried its best with what it had. It’s a sequel to the first Great Soccer, but honestly, unless you were really into the series, you probably wouldn’t notice—it’s got that same chunky, slightly stiff feel to the gameplay.

You pick from a handful of national teams (no licenses here, just generic colors and names), and the matches play out in that classic top-down arcade style. The ball physics are… well, let’s just say they’re more about frantic button-mashing than precision passing. Still, there’s something oddly satisfying about bulldozing through defenders with a pixelated striker who moves like a tank.

If you grew up with this one, it’s pure nostalgia. If not, it’s mostly a curiosity—a reminder of how far soccer games have come. The Master System had better sports titles, but this one’s got its own weird charm.
