FIFA ’98: Road to the World Cup
EA’s FIFA series has been around for quite some time, and while each year brings a guaranteed new installment, the upgrades aren’t always for the better (just ask Madden fans). Road to the World Cup tries some new things, but it ultimately seems like a step back from earlier versions.

Thankfully, FIFA is a good game no matter what console it’s on, and those who don’t own the Genesis cartridge might look into this version.
