I love this retrospective on the beginnings of Croteam. I always wondered where they came from. I had been a PC user in the US since the early 90s but I never heard of Croteam until I saw and played the Serious Sam demo in the summer of 2000. I was completely blown away by the game! I couldn't believe how incredibly fun even that test demo was, especially when multiple people were playing! I've purchased and played through all of the PC Serious Sam games through the years but the original game (both First and Second encounters) are still the ones I love the most!

I was never interested in sports games but I love these examinations of early game development, another great video Kim!

The fact that it runs at a high frame rate too. It's just a better verison of starfox 1

Completely forgot about this game until now, thanks for the nostalgic reminder Kim. Also the Jimmy hill chinny reference

i'll go back to five-a-side soccer eventually, get simming it and maybe make teams for it, i used to sim fifa98 RttWC indoor game

If only they’d stuck with this sort, and not gone on to Quakeclones.

This comment is a little ironic coming from a guy with the "hypermasculine" identifier.

awesome content!

Another great video, Kim. Sorry but my favourite football game is the original Football Manager on the Spectrum. 🤣

Great video- thanks, Kim.

Never knew about this one, the Croatian football team of that time were as exciting as this game by the looks of it

I've been playing citadel remastered from the home computer heroes collection on evercade. It's really good. Also football glory is very very good.

And that's why I subscribe to this channel. Good stuff.

I loved this era of the Amiga. There was always a new crack dev team from some far flung country trying something new.

Oh my God I loved this game! I can actually still remember buying the DOS edition from Game in Loughborough purely because it had Geoff Hurst and the World Cup on the front of it. It quickly replaced my bootleg copy of SWOS as the main reason my mum would tell me to get off the family computer!

While I don't like sports games, this one looks to be a roaring good time and super entertaining, would totally love to try this one out.

Please edit out you burping and clearing your nose on your videos. 7:56 this is terrible, happens almost every video

Brian Butterfield was a welcome surprise here, cheers Kim!

Ok - I'm going to say it.......I PREFER FOOTBALL GLORY OVER SENSIBLE SOCCER.......uh oh!!!!!!

Top notch video as always Kim. Knew it wouldn’t sway you from sensible! I’m curious to give it a bash now.

Not out tonight, sitting in with some "treats" watching the Euros...... Then notice there's a new Kim vid. Noice! 😁😁

Can't wait to watch this. I'm a huge fan of both Serious Sam and The Talos Principle and Croteam retrospectives usually don't cover this period of their history much.

Fantastic video, Kim. Brings back a ton of memories. I had a Sega arcade near me in the 90's, and I only ever went on the free play days where you'd pay a fiver to get in and all the machines were free vend. I remember playing a great many of the games in this video, it was an amazing experience and a very special era of gaming. The only problem with free play days is the arcade is always packed and you'd be waiting ages to get on some games. Daytona USA always seemed to have all eight players constantly, and there was always a big queue for Super Street Fighter II Turbo and Tekken 2. Virtua Fighter was never all that popular, and I wasn't a fan either so that machine was often available. I mostly played the shooting games, HotD, Gunblade NY, Virtua Cop, Time Crisis. Gunblade was especially fun on free play days cause you could play 2-player on your on and have a gun in each hand, without it costing a fortune. VOOT was my absolute favourite though, holy hell was that game amazing with the big screen and dual stick controls. The machine was never hugely popular but I loved it and played it an absolute ton. Easily the arcade game I've spent the most time with. I feel privileged to have grown up in this era, when arcades were a thing and they were a step above anything you could get at home. If you were a gamer in the 90's, going to an arcade and playing these incredible games was almost a religious experience. I hate to be all "you had to be there" but, yeah..

Amazing! It's amazing demoscene was this far and wide

I'm not reallly a football fan for either side of the pond. I do love me some serious sam. first/second encounter are pretty good. Serious sam 2 is an amazing game that for some reason got demonized by people who never played it. serious sam 3 and onward sucks.

Arrest Alan Shearer now ? Many are saying his future crimes are an an inevitability....

The Spaceballs of Sensible Soccer!

A more in-depth look on the subject of one of my favourite Kim videos. In many ways, I consider the Sensible Soccer ports on the SNES to be more polished versions of Football Glory (sans the humour) that actually predated Football Glory (Super Football Glory Zero V1 & V1.1 perhaps), with their slightly bigger graphics and the fact that if you play the American version of Sensi V1.2 (Championship Soccer '94), it's probably as fast as Football Glory.

That's pretty neat that they were willing to help other game creators, if I understood that correctly.

One of the great pleasures is how your subject matters are actually about the culture around the art and how they influence each other. Genuine appreciation for the British culture and this time... Croatian. As always, extremely involving work you do.

Don’t forget that the developers had never played Sensible Soccer……erm ……..etc. k Not a patch on Sensible.

Bubsy is kind of a sad one because the first one was good but the sequels got worse every time, which is unfortunate since the first game was a solid foundation for a possible decent series

completely missed this back in the 90s but just added to my amiga mini afteer rewatching your top 100 vid, impeccable timing as always. Sierra Soccer is another one I barely remember but seems quite good

rip off or not, its a great game.

What do you reckon? Is this one of the best footie games around, or is it just a shameless Sensible Soccer rip-off? Have a shout in the comments, and thanks for watching! :)

I thought TOCA was better than the first Gran Turismo. Not so much for content but the gameplay and the way the car s handled was amazing for the time

So many great Codemasters games to play.

Is sqij on c64 actually bad? It looks alright

wow... i love listening to you and it always amazes me the depth and accuracy of your storytelling. I have a master's in System Dynamics and your summary is perfect.

I wonder if the BBC's current wokeness is so they can distance themselves from the Savile years?

I have most of those Games Thanks to Hamsters Arcade Archives on the PS4/5

Great episode as always.

I played the soccer game Pele, i agree that it was horrible.

Zeljko Juric made a map and solution to my one Spectrum game, a GAC adventure called Timewise. It made me very proud that he had played and although I don't know for sure I hope it kept the guys entertained and distracted at least a little bit while they were playing it. Warejevo was and still is a great emulator. Thanks for this video Kim.

What was the difference between FIFA 98: RTWC and FIFA 98: World Cup?

Great video. Wonder Boy on the Master System was the first video game I ever owned, so it will always have a soft spot for me. But I had most fun with Rastan on this console...it was just such an excellent port. Another favourite was Chase H.Q.

A very biased account, clearly fuelled by your bitter hatred of the man himself. For example, you failed to mention how Sugar revolutionised the word-processor market. Many top authors and journalists loved this kit and typed out their copy on a PCW8256. Then there was the PC1512 which out-IBMd IBM - this machine took a massive 30% of the European market share and truly brought computing to the masses - it literally changed the world. But instead, you prefer to revel in the failure to the GX4000 - I could feel you wringing your hands with glee at that failure. Tell me, if you were a manufacturer in Sugar's shoes, would you have a 100% success rate? Ironically you see the comedy value of the Rowan, Smith & Jones sketch portraying hi-fi snobs, completely oblivious to the fact that your sneering attitude throughout the rest of the video was exactly the same!

Dont remeber anyone hating yoshi suoer mario world The game is widley regarded as the greatest ever and yoshi is a big part if it
