9 PC Games That Will Make You Nostalgic For The 90s
4. Sensible World Of Soccer
Before there was FIFA and Pro Evo, there was SWOS (actually, there were plenty of fantastic footy games, but most are now dead and forgotten). With its charmingly outdated player roster and easy-to-learn gameplay, it's a great way to relive 90s football - you know, a time when you actually welled up with pride watching England play. What makes Sensible World of Soccer such a timeless classic is that fact that it eschews flashy graphics (even for the time) for accessible gameplay that runs much deeper than you'd think. It's like table football - anyone can give it a crack, but there is a deceptive level of skill involved becoming a master at it. SWOS continues to enjoy huge popularity, and if you want to bring its unique footy formula kicking into the 21st century, then you can download a patch for it that updates the teams for the 2013/14 season. Not bad for a 20-year-old game!
