Striker on the Genesis is one of those early '90s soccer games that tries to fake 3D with a tilted pitch perspective—kinda janky by today's standards, but it's got this weirdly addictive arcade feel. You pick from a bunch of national teams (no real player names, obviously), and matches are fast, messy, and full of sliding tackles that probably wouldn't fly in real football.

The controls take a minute to get used to—passing feels floaty, and shooting is all about timing—but once it clicks, you'll be pulling off ridiculous long-range goals like it's nothing. The French version got rebranded with Eric Cantona's name slapped on it, which tells you everything about how random regional releases were back then.

Honestly, it's not the deepest soccer sim, but there's something charming about its clunky energy. Just don't expect FIFA.
