I've never played that game before but I do remember playing a Basketball game that had the same top down look and the same character models for the SNES. Same gaming company maybe? IDK, what I do know is that this music does fucking rock.

06.05.2009 - 22:06 | Fuckface OblivionThis game is a wildcard

Why do so many idiots still think that it's cool to say "Dur, hur, FIRST?" There isn't even any content posted. It's just some genius that's getting excited about being in the right place at the right time.
With all that aside, wow, does this game have awesome music, and the Amiga's sound is insane! As for the movies, the first Rollerball movie was great as well! The remake was awful, though.

I didn't know what speedball was when I clicked to watch this movie, but as soon as I saw the team selection screen, I recognized it.
Well, kinda. I never got to play speedball, but I had the NES version that you metioned, Klash Ball. I never thought it was bad, just not great.
-
06.05.2009 - 22:38 | SurahtAlso, if you're going to watch Rollerball, make sure you're watching the original, and not the remake that came out in 2002. A brief flash of a look at Rebecca Romijn's bare chest doesn't even come close to making up for the rest of that movie.

Now that's some music I could get behind! Kinda gives you a feeling like you need to go do something quickly..... listening to that while just sitting there doing nothing would be so :unsure:

Something tells me that I'd love Speedball if I ever got to play it. I'll just stick with watching the original Rollerball movie though, it's awesome.

Somebody needs to make a heavy metal remix of that tune!

I remember playing this back in the days of the almighty Amiga. I had forgotten how kick-ass the music is. Thanks for the reminder, Benzai. Thumbs up!
-
06.06.2009 - 00:34 | FunkyM
Yeah, Amiga/ST days were awesome. All of the best games came out then.
-

I don't think I have played part 1, but I used to have Speed Ball 2 on the Amiga and it was AWESOME!
-
06.06.2009 - 01:22 | nitoro81Do Xenon 2! The dos version has the best music.
-
06.06.2009 - 01:41 | comicbookguy
Ahhh... memories to Amiga time.
I also loved Xenon 2
There should be more reviews of Amiga, C64 and DOS games.

It was called Klash Ball on the NES as Nintendo thought Speedball was a reference to drugs did ye know?
-
06.06.2009 - 02:37 | benzaieyes I knew Larry, I'm the f*cking Benzaie :evil:
:P

The Marsland Brotherhood made one in 2003:

Speedball rocked! Both games! It's really hard to decide which one's better: The second one gives you more to do but this one's way faster B)
@comicbookguy:
Agreed, those systems keep getting overlooked as gaming platforms!

06.06.2009 - 01:56 | Remmus
ah another game benzaie I heard and played, seams we have quite the same taste
-
06.06.2009 - 02:01 | Daikichi
Awsome review, but why din't you speak?
-
06.06.2009 - 02:03 | WJMill
Because then we would be distracted from the music, which was the point of the video.
Benzaie, I love the GSYMDK series! I'm so glad you're doing more of them.
-
06.06.2009 - 02:03 | Richard WeskerWe are unworthy of his beautiful voice.
-
06.06.2009 - 02:37 | benzaieit's Game Soundtrack You might Don't know buddy....
I let you enjoy the music...
-
06.06.2009 - 02:10 | YourAverageJoe
I wanna hear the C64 version :angry:
-
06.06.2009 - 14:01 | wotnografix
That's what I thought I'd hear. Still got that big cardboard boxed cassette game somewhere...
-
06.06.2009 - 02:47 | TrencherI used to play this on the Amiga with the brother back in the day. A classic game and I like this one much better than the sequel.

I'm a huge fan of Speedball 2 so I really enjoyed this review.
It's definitely missing some audio/video of you Benzaie. Would love to have seen you dressed in some Speedball-esque garb whilst playing this.
-
06.06.2009 - 05:03 | futuristiqueCool stuff. I've discovered benzaie with the final final battle, didn't know there was a fellow frenchman amongst the TGWTG crew... just curious, tu vis où Ben?
-
06.06.2009 - 08:10 | YourAverageJoeYOU WILL ADDRESS THE GREAT BENZAIE WITH "VOUS" AND YOU WILL LIKE IT :angry:
-
06.06.2009 - 05:50 | Shinigami
Cool new GSYMDK episode. Thanks Ben.
-
06.06.2009 - 06:21 | slayrideThis game reminds me of Bill Laimbeer's Combat Basketball for the SNES.
-
The first one kinda makes me thing of the music from doom.
I've watched rollerball, both of them James Khan and the crappy LL cool J one.
and I can't say i've ever heard of this game.
-
Awesome as always. Just wondering if you would ever give us your top 5 or 10 Atari ST songs. I would love to see what you pick. BTW any chance of posting the theme to draconus? I just love that song.
-
06.06.2009 - 09:30 | SalFishFin
I remember playing a game like this on Cartoon Network alot when I was younger. It was awesome.
