Man, Striker on the Genesis takes me back. The second you boot it up, you’re hit with that chunky pixel grass and those hilariously exaggerated player animations—like they’re running in molasses one second and then suddenly rocket a shot from halfway across the pitch. The controls are simple (pass, shoot, sprint), but good luck trying to dribble past defenders without getting bulldozed. Feels more like street football than proper FIFA, and honestly? That’s the charm.

Matches are chaotic, goals are either scrappy tap-ins or absolute screamers, and the AI will foul you relentlessly. Played it with a buddy last weekend, and we spent half the time laughing at how the keeper would sometimes just… miss the ball completely. Not exactly a simulator, but if you want that ‘90s arcade soccer vibe with a side of jank, this is it.

Just don’t expect tactical depth—this is pure, unfiltered "smash buttons and hope for the best" energy.
