<p>Become a goal scoring superstar hero at the <strong>Sensible World of Soccer Varia Cup 2020</strong>! After two competitive events at WORM it's time to bring the classic football game to the south of Rotterdam. Varia will be host to both an amateur cup as well as a pro cup - anyone can play (literally; in contrast with modern football simulators you only need a joystick with one button!). Although the last official release of the game was in 96 (not counting the terrible 3d attempts that became the downfall of Sensible Software), Sensible Soccer never went away thanks to its highly addictive gameplay and vast database of teams from around the world, creating possibilities to become champion infinite. SWOS has become part of the gaming canon as stated by Stanford University, amongst games as Tetris and Super Mario Bros 3. The Royal Mail celebrated its part in British video game history by releasing a Sensible Stamp last month.</p>

<p><strong>SWOS2020</strong>
|
|
A strong community (check out <a href="http://www.sensiblesoccer.de">www.sensiblesoccer.de</a>) made sure the ball kept on rolling, with ways to play against each other online, rankings, as well as hosting the annual Sensible Days: the World Cup where players decide who's best. The highlight of this year though is the launch of <strong>Sensible World of Soccer 2020</strong>! Not only does it provide an up-to-date database with around 1,500 teams from all over the world (from The Netherlands to El Salvador; a huge community effort), it is also the first time that the game can be played on modern operating systems without using DOS- or Amiga-emulators. This time you can run the game straight from your Windows-desktop (of course, the database has also been released for the original Amiga version). You can even switch live between DOS and Amiga-gameplay, and choose for a beautiful wide screen mode on UltraHD resolutions. The game is available for free through below link (you do need to own the original version of the game though, but online search machines will help, or check out <a href="http://www.gog.com">www.gog.com </a>for a legal way to buy the game).</p>
