International Soccer - The Grandaddy of All Games
Not many will remember one of the first soccer video games - International Soccer, also known as Cup Final. I do, I still remember playing it on my first computer, Commodore 64.
The game is really simple to play - no offside rule and no possibility to foul your opponents. It can be played by two players or one player against the computer.
I just couldn’t resists not to publish this post when I remembered my first ever played soccer video game. Which soccer game was yours first ever played?
Update: Download and play the International Soccer on your PC.

International Soccer was, indeed, revolutionary. I, however, personally preferred the game that took the International Soccer look and added more control, more realism, and more options: Emlyn Hughes International Soccer. In fact, I still prefer EHIS over any other soccer game — here’s why: http://www.ehis64.net/emlyn_hughes.php :)
