Summary
As World Cup fever is currently the national epidemic and with the ensuing excitement reaching pant-wetting proportions, everyone’s favourite hunk, hero and all-round good guy David Beckham offers the general public the vicarious opportunity to be him in his very own video game.
David Beckham Soccer is an extremely comprehensive football game, featuring hundreds of up-to-date teams and players, and a vast array of competitions and game modes. Classic England moments (when for a short period of time the whole nation actually thought our national team was any good) are in there for you to re-live, including the qualifying match against Greece and the formidable 5-1 thrashing of Germany.
DBS offers a custom AI feature, which enables the player to manage each player’s AI individually within the team, giving control over movement and formation. Coupled with the game’s comprehensive Custom Editor, which allows for customisation of every aspect of the team and players, this presents quite a versatile play model.
Being oh-so famous for those thunderous free kicks, no virtual tribute to the star would be complete without extensive possibilities to re-live the moments. Enter the Advanced Set-plays system, which allows the player to choose from several existing set pieces whilst standing over a free kick or corner.
Featuring fluid, motion-captured animation and an intuitive control system, David Beckham Soccer looks set to sell well regardless of the endorsement and advertising budget. The inclusion of Becks exclusives, such as secret teams and a unique training mode set by the star himself, are certainly going to help matters further.
