RealSports Soccer

[5][6] With the launch of the Atari 5200 a new version of the game was also developed for it, originally known simply as Soccer.

[4] The 2600 version was programmed by Michael Sierchio,[7] with the computer-graphics being designed by Jerome Domurat.

[4] A version for the Atari 8-bit computers was also in development, but was cancelled in hope that it would sell more 5200 systems.

[6] A review in the 1984 Software Encyclopedia was broadly positive about the game, particularly in head-to-head mode, giving it 7/10 overall.

[10] An article in the November/December 1992 edition of Digital Press listed the game as one of the worst ever made for the Atari 2600, criticizing especially the poor graphics, sound, gameplay, and controls.
