About This Game
FIFA International Soccer introduced several innovations to football games, including an isometric '3/4' perspective rather than the traditional top-down view used in earlier football games.
The game featured international teams with real player names for the first time in a football video game, thanks to EA's licensing agreement with FIFA.
Despite some criticism for its unrealistic physics and animations, FIFA International Soccer was a commercial success and established EA Sports as a major player in sports video games.
