Review by Jukka O. Kauppinen (Finland) and Alan Buxey (England)

 All prices are quoted in English Pounds.
 All phone/fax numbers are in each country's native format.

To call from abroad remember to add the country code and
delete the first figure of the dialing code.
For example '+ BRITAIN - 444 - XXX XXXX'

	Woah, the cool soccer game on CD?  What's new?  Well, not much
really.  CD sound and a European data disk, but not much more.  But if you
don't have this (on Amiga) already, then SS is the soccer game to have.

	Well, here's Sensi on the CD, so what do we get for the cash? Not a
lot more than version 1.1 of the floppy actually. There are FEWER crowd
chants, and the total atmosphere of the game is lost.  This version has fewer
features than the latest Megadrive version - its only saving grace is the
low price.  Oh yes, I almost forgot:  control on the Standard C= controller
is also diabolical - I can't wait until Cheater bring out their joypad range!
By the way, this was the first CD32 game to be cheaper on CD than its floppy
based counterpart....
