COMMENTS

Sega Soccer Slam is fun for while but then gets boring and repetetive. Playing through the single-player mode to unlock new items for each player a couple times is great but there isn't enough depth in the gamplay to play through it for each team. Soccer Slam is three on three soccer that allows punching your opponents. Each team has 3 distinctive players. The field is small so there isn't alot of running. There are some cool moves like the "Matrix" kick that slows everything down. As mentioned before the gameplay is excellent and fun in the beginning but then goes downhill. The graphics are good but not great. There is a lot of color used on both the playing fields and the actual players. The sound is poor. The character voices are nice but again get repetetive. Younger kids will probably love Sega Soccer Slam but for everyone else its nothing more than an excellent weekend rental.
