I thought I should commemorate the start of the World Cup by looking for some soccer (or football, if you must) games.
Turns out there aren't a lot of them -- most are either shootout simulations or using headers or kicks to keep the ball in the air.
I suppose Flash or Java programming for a website has some speed limitations, because the great majority of "realistic" games have only 3-6 players per side, often nothing more than colored dots.
However, I persevered, and eventually found this. It's got complete teams, instant replays, joystick control (if you have one), and a full World Cup schedule.
Of course, I won't be playing it. If I get the urge, I'll pop my FIFA Soccer '04 (I really should update it one of these days) in the Xbox. So, nyah.
Or maybe I'll start practicing this.
