"Sega Soccer Slam" is a sports game released for the PlayStation 2, Xbox, and GameCube in 2002.

Gameplay

"Sega Soccer Slam" is much different than standard traditional real-life sports games because of its exaggerated interpretation of soccer and allowing characters to punch one another and also there is no throw ins, no corners, no free kicks and no penaltys. "Sega Soccer Slam" includes an exhibition mode, a challenge mode (Xbox, PS2 and GameCube version only), a practice mode, a tourney mode, and a quest mode. It also includes two mini-games (in the Xbox and PS2 version): Hot Potato and Brawl.

The practice mode is mostly a step-by-step instruction of how to play the game, teaching the player maneuvers including steals, passes, shots, dekes, volleys, as well as more complicated moves such as spotlight shot and the killer kick (an incredibly powerful shot that can be accessed when the charge bottom at the bottom of the screen reaches its maximum through doing basic moves). The practice mode is essential for both masters and newcomers to prepare for the exhibition, tourney, challenge and quest parts of the game.

The exhibition mode is similar to that of most other sport games. In it, players are allowed to choose your own opponent and team as well as a stadium to play in. They can also play two mini-games with up to four players: Brawl, which is where four of the characters fight against each other, and Hot Potato, a game where passing scores points, but when the ball explodes, anyone in the blast will lose points. Tourney mode is where the player can play in a tournament that lasts for 5 days of each team playing each other at least once through the competion. Challenge mode is when the player creates a custom team and compete in a series of matches to unlock nine secret characters, but each character can only unlock two secret characters.

Other than the gameplay options said above, "Sega Soccer Slam" also has a quest mode. In quest mode the player chooses one of the starting six teams and then competes in a series of ten games. Through winning these games the player can accumulate money which can be used to buy character art and power-up items. The character wears each item in order to enhance his or her attributes.

Teams

*Team Toxic: Colored mainly green. The major team members consists of Raine, a Canadian eco-terrorist; Duke, a burly American football player; and Nova, a young Native American genius who wants to win the championship so that he can aid in making soccer possible on a space station. The characters come from Northern America and best at passes. The Reactor Core is their home field.
