10 Video Games That Weren't As Good As You Remember 

10. FIFA International Soccer

The FIFA game series have changed the face of football video games forever. Some have questioned if this change was for the better, but it's hard to argue that over the years, EA have refined the games into the glossy, well-rounded footy package that we see today. But if we go back to day one, then you can truly see how far we've come, my friend. Because, dear reader, the very first FIFA Soccer on the Mega Drive was actually pure balls.

At the time, it might have had you weeping at joy at the glorious player animations and the fact that finally, after all this time, you could play as the Qatar national team in a football game. But there was a big problem - playing FIFA was painful. Literally, painful.

The Mega Drive controller and D-Pad were simply never designed for an isometric-based football simulation and made merry hell of any sustained effort in you trying to make your guys run anywhere. Thus, any 5 minute game would likely make your fingers bleed right down to the bone.

On the plus side though, in this early FIFA incarnation, you can commit horrendous GBH style fouls and proceed to endlessly run away from the ref to avoid punishment, in true Benny Hill fashion. So there was always that to look forward to.
