The massively hyped of return of Sensible World of Soccer proved to be very short lived on XBLA thanks to reports of bugs flawing the game.

How did people get it because I have been checking the market place every day for over a week and never once seen it on there

Lets hope its back on soon because I want this so bad, its one of 3-5 games on the amiga I really missed when it died.

its was released early wednesday morning after 10am, but was pulled about 4 hours later after complains. i've read in other forum that is hopefully should be back on for this weekend.

It wasn't retitled SWOS for the 360, that was the name of the best version on Amiga.

Until they release a decent joystick though, I wont even bother downloading the demo. I played Speedball 2 with the 360 pad the other week and it was terrible, I don't want my great memories of SWOS to be sullied.

I used to play SWOS with a gamepad on my PC. My mate also had a couple of gamepads for the amiga, we used to have 16 man night long tournaments with all the mates round

its back up, and it plays so nicely with the 360 pad

This seems the only thread on SWOS so I thought I'd post here

Been LOVING the return to playing SWOS. Best Football game ever imo (even PES isn't as good, and I love PES). Online is terribly laggy for some games and OK in others but single player/playing with mates is still as amazing as it ever was. I just wish they'd have updated the players/teams to 2007/8. Maybe an Xbox Live content release?

What does everyone think?
