Legendary Eleven
''Legendary Eleven'' is a football/soccer video game developed by the Spanish company Eclipse Games and released in 2018 for PC and consoles PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch and Xbox One. Gameplay Inspired by arcade-type football/soccer video games, the game recreates the style of football/soccer of the 70s, 80s and 90s. Its style is purely arcade where the important thing is the direct football/soccer, hard entrances and spectacular shots from midfield that can end in a goal. However, the title incorporates a certain strategic component that complements its arcade nature, such as, for example, the options to choose different types of formations and strategies, and controls that will allow to give measured passes to the gap, make smooth and strong steals of the ball. Likewise, the Super Shot is available, a shot that is almost always a goal but that takes several seconds to be activated after charging a maximum energy bar with passes and dribbles (which remains empty if the ball ...

Tecmo World Cup Soccer
''Tecmo World Cup Soccer'' is a video game for the Nintendo Entertainment System. Released in 1990 by Tecmo, as its name suggests it is a soccer game focusing on the World Cup. It is a port of ''Tehkan World Cup'', released on arcades in 1985. Although the two games appear virtually identical, ''Tecmo World Cup Soccer'' lacks some of the speed and fluidity of its arcade progenitor. While the gameplay is ostensibly unchanged, the lack of support for analog control in the NES version renders it a digital-control-only game that requires almost completely different tactics. ''Tecmo World Cup Soccer'' is not to be confused with ''Nintendo World Cup'' (released the same year), nor ''Tecmo Cup Soccer Game'' (known as ''Captain Tsubasa'' in Japan). World Cup Teams The national teams in ''Tecmo World Cup Soccer'' are as follows (in order, they are available to choose in game "Team Select" menu): * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * ...

Gameplay
Gameplay is the specific way in which players interact with a game, and in particular with video games. Gameplay is the pattern defined through the game rules, connection between player and the game, challenges and overcoming them, plot and player's connection with it. Video game gameplay is distinct from graphics and audio elements. In card games, the equivalent term is play. Overview Arising alongside video game development in the 1980s, the term ''gameplay'' was used solely within the context of video games, though now its popularity has begun to see use in the description of other, more traditional, game forms. Generally, gameplay is considered the overall experience of playing a video game, excluding factors like graphics and sound. Game mechanics, on the other hand, is the sets of rules in a game that are intended to produce an enjoyable gaming experience. Academic discussions tend to favor ''game mechanics'' specifically to avoid ''gameplay'' since the latter is too vagu ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
