Speedball 2: Brutal Deluxe

Speedball 2: Brutal Deluxe

Released1990
Speedball is a futuristic football-like game which takes place on a steel walled floored pitch, 160 feet long by 90 feet wide. There are two teams, and the team scoring the most goals wins. There is a goal at each end of the pitch and a ball warp tunnels in each side of the wall. The warp tunnels can warp a ball from one tunnel to another. The ball is launched from the center of the pit by the automatic launcher in a random direction. There also bounce domes, off of which the ball will be deflected, but over which players are free to move. This version of the game comes with a much better VGA graphics and Sound Blaster sounds. The game-play is also greatly enhanced.

About This Game

In the year 2105, a violent sport makes its return to the public eye after a decade of darkness. The original Speedball league collapsed in 2095 under the weight of rampant brutality and institutional corruption, forcing the dangerous game into the underground where it festered for years. Now, with hopes of rekindling mainstream enthusiasm, a revitalized league resurrects Speedball in a grittier, more chaotic form. You take control of Brutal Deluxe, an upstart team emerging from the shadows to compete in this lawless revival, where only the most ruthless competitors will survive.
