Captain Tsubasa: Rise of New Champions

On the whole, it's an acceptable game with its own unique charms to make it stand out from other football games. However, there's just a bunch of little things that add up to make it rather negative imo. 1. Live service game - meaning it can be terminated at any moment and you're left with the rather miniscule offline shell. 2. Online is dead anyway - barely any players to play online with. 3. Connection issues - when you do get to play, expect connection issues. 4. So many characters as paid DLC - including the literal main character of the entire series? Go away, scummy micro-transactions. 5. Lack of single player replayability - you can create a custom character, go through an entire story... and then you can either put him into an online team or create a new one. Their story just ends there abruptly. Kinda depressing, tbh. It's kind of okay to play through for a bit, but as soon as I finished the New Hero episodes, I kinda lost the will to play anymore. Definitely not worth its price at full, and it's kind of a big chunky game taking up storage space for me to really want to justify keeping it installed.

This review is entirely based on my single player experience, since I have not played online versus and I have no intention to. So, if you're a guy who wants to play this game for the single player, here's my review. This game can be fun at times, with the special combos and plays, the animations playing and fast paced arcade futball, but sadly, I cannot recommend this game, because it is more frustrating than fun. You might say it's a skill issue, and I do admit that I'm not the best player ever, but, some issues do not arise from skill at all, but faulty game mechanics. For example, when the enemy team has the ball and is passing around, the game auto-switches between your players to one that is best positioned to defend against the current enemy player with the ball. This on paper sounds like a good mechanic, but it is very faulty. Many many times I have a player that is just about the reach the enemy player, but since it's from behind, the game decides to then auto-switch to another player way farther ahead, giving valueble ground and space to the enemy player. You can, however, manually switch between players, that sounds like it could solve it, right? No. The manual switch is also faulty, many times I had a player so close to the enemy player with the ball and when I tried to switch to the player, the game kept switching between two other players that are so far from the enemy player. Then there's the slide tackle bug. Oh boy this one has made me get so angry so many times. Sometimes, the slide tackle just doesn't want to work. You'll either phase through the other player or, your character will be pushed to the side of the player you're trying to tackle. My guess is because for some reason the game can't initiate the slide tackle animation (or dribble animation), thus it makes the other player invincible. I've even encounter issues where my players (the ones I am no controlling), forget what position they where in and wonder somewhere else, for example, I was playing with a left MF, going down the left side, I was going to pass to my right MF, but then I noticed that for some reason, he was running next to me. I guess he felt lonely and wanted to chat. And then... my biggest gripe with this game... The damn NEW HERO story mode. Holy crap what a let down. In this story mode you can created your own custom character, editing appearence and field position and add it to a japanese school futball team of your chosing. At first it's exciting, you get to be a new rising hero in the world of Captain Tsubasa! You can form friendships with other players, learn their skills and moves to make your own dream player in the world of Captain Tsubasa, with your favourite moves! You, a new prodigy, rising through the ranks to become the best player in the world!... Yeah, no. Even though the story mode is called "NEW HERO", even though the player that shows is a custom character, even though Tsubasa has his own story mode, the moment you finish the initial part and go to the world stage, your character becomes completely irrelevant. And I do mean it. Some times someone will say that you have potential, but no one actually thinks you're a prodigy or anything. The story becomes completely about Tsubasa. I am not joking, your custom character does not matter at all, if it was removed from the story there would be no changes at all, the story is all about Tsubasa and how amazing he is. What. A. Let. Down. I've seen people defend this, I do not understand why. Tsubasa already has his own story mode, why make the story mode called "NEW HERO", where you can make a custom character and make him grow, all about Tsubasa? FFS, the moment you go to the world stage, Tsubasa becomes the captain and gets locked into that position, you can't even make your own character the captain. Overall it does have it's fun moments, but the amount of frustation the issues with the game and the letdown that is the custom character story mode makes this game very hard to recommend, much less at full price. Thanks for reading.

Melhor que FIFA!

The tutorial consists of 28 playable trials, most of them can be finished within 15 seconds. You pick one from the menu, loading screen, trial, loading screen, back to menu. That means that through the tutorial you will see loading screen at least 56 times. When you shoot at the goal, the gameplay turns off and you jump to the animation. There are two animations for conceding a goal and two animations for succesfully defending. The plot is exhausting, awful lot of exposition, characters using 20 sentences in what can be said in one. Typical low quality anime bullcrap. Game modes are confusing. You start by doing tutorials (optional), then the game tries to force you to do them again during the first matches of the story mode. There is less gameplay in story mode than there is clicking through pointless "visual novel" part of it. The game is uninspiring, gameplay barely existing, controls laughable. The game crashed twice within first two hours. Game pauses when alt+tabing. Doesn't keep settings saved, you have to change to full screen mode every time you start the game. Don't buy this.

pqp que jogo ruim, modo historia completamente scripitado, os controles nao funcionam NUNCA, sem ser nas cenas scriptadas, onilne lento e cheio de lag........... nao recomendo comprar a nao ser que voce sejam mto fa da obra original (que nao é o meu caso).

futebol + poderzinho + drama do cassetete + protagonista que a cada partida é abusado fisicamente por causa das suas lesões + o goat Shingo Aoi = jogasso

yenisi çıkacak almayın bunu

If you're old enough to remember Nintendo's World Cup Soccer, this game brings enough back-and-forth rough housing and insanity to make you feel nostalgic. If you're looking for a pro soccer game with all the rules you'd expect, this game isn't it--But if you're looking for an arcade-style romp with over-the-top moves, this game is a blast. I've only played the story mode so far, and can't speak to the quality of online matches.

Not what you'd expect from a football game... The gameplay is as arcade as it gets, which is fine. The problem is that the games are heavily scripted; if you have to struggle in one specific match, you will. There is one part of the game where all you have to do is lose possession of the ball ANYWHERE on the field once, and the CPU scores against you immediately for story purposes. This could be caused by a skill issue on my end, but I did try to learn how to play... I would say, try this game once it goes on a heavy discount if you are a fan of the series. As of writing it is priced at 4.75 USD. Don't buy this expecting a real football game. S

3/10 The gameplay is too complex/difficult for me, and as much as I love animes in general, I couldn't care less about this one. And you'll get LOTS of cutscenes, before, after, and even in the middle of the match. Also, the UI is just terrible. The only upside for me is that it looks great.
