"
While multiplayer matches provide outrageous fun, the single-player gameplay experience in "SEGA Soccer Slam" is enhanced in the Xbox and PlayStation 2 versions, with the inclusion of a variety of modes and features. An added Challenge Mode and revamped Arcade Mode join existing gameplay modes such as the Continental Cup Quest, Practice and Tournament. In the Challenge Mode gamers can build their own teams by custom selecting individual players from any of the existing soccer squads and competing in special matches where players can unlock one of the three new secret teams. The Arcade Mode gives easy access to single exhibition matches, lets users mix and match players from various teams and play the two new mini-games.
"SEGA Soccer Slam" takes the world's most popular sport to hilarious new heights, with its zany cast of characters, each with their own skills and irreverent personalities. In this 3-on-3 kickfest, players perform lightning quick rushes upfield, intense, high-impact tackles and Matrix-style spotlight kicks to place the ball firmly in the back of the net. Detailed character and stadium models, featuring fully polygonal fans that passionately chant and wave their teams' flags ensure that the action off the field is as exciting as the action on field."
