England International Football gives gamers the chance to step into Sven-Goran Eriksson's shoes and choose the team line-up, and then it's down onto the pitch to face the world’s national teams playing in matches and tournaments. From the opening sequence and menu screens, all resplendent in England colours and branding, kick off a top international football action game, packed with official content. See true-likenesses of all 25 England team players (and Sven!) created from an exclusive photoshoot and 3D modelling session, and the full home and away strip in perfect detail, right down to the famous Three Lions badge and World Cup winner's star. 20 top European national teams feature in the European Championship game mode. Additionally, England International Football also lets you go intercontinental and play World Cup style tournaments against a further 12 teams from all corners of the globe including Argentina, Brazil, Cameroon, Australia and Japan.

A resoundingly solid game of football.

A middle of the road type game that will please some but will leave many listless and apathetic. When another not-to-be-mentioned title rears its proud head later this year, England International Football will slide out of the Premier league to rub shoulders with Torquay United and Huddersfield in Division Three. Shame but that’s the game.

The unlockable memorabilia will keep you interested in your nation for a fair bit, as will the fun of trying to win the Euro Championships on the hardest setting. The addition of many custom options, like leagues and tournaments should appeal to the fan that wants everything, but the bloody annoying niggles in the game engine put me right off.

Gamestyle
A surprisingly pleasing football game, which lacks the depth of "Pro Evolution." With a few faults that grate over time, rental may be the better option for PS2.

Even with all the St George crosses this is a disappointment. Nationalism's fine, but EIF's all bulldog without the balls.

Ferrago
The main criticism to be levelled is the lack of variation the limited game types offer. At the end of the day EIF is adequate whilst failing to excel at anything in particular.
