I live in BELGIUM, my father is italian and mh Mother belgian. i m 43 years old. I have been playing kick off since i was 12 years old on Amiga
When i was young, during holidays, i was playing 7 hors à day with my neightbours on kick off, and after we were playing 3hours on real football. It was so great.

Actually i m still playing kick off on my amiga 500 with my speedking joystick ( i m from the old school;-) )

I m very excited to participate to tournament, real or online:-)
I see that they are tournament on line, is it True?

Hi Frederic!
And welcome aboard.
Nice of you to drop by. And so cool to see there are still people around, still playing the great game.

Agewise, you'll fit in nicely.

Frederic, WELCOME HOME!

The forum is not very active, but you can see pictures and read stories from our last World Cup, last month, and begin thinking about participating in the next one. In the meantime, if you have no one there to play with, there is the great Kick Off Online option.

If you read the Online-part of the forums, you'll find both how to download and access the client Steve made, and also a thread about joystick adapters.

Frederic's laptop runs Windows Vista which is too old for Unity hence the search for a suitable computer.

[Giuliano]

I found à laptop with Windows 7. But he need a good formatting before use it.

I hope it will be good.

Perfect i see the adaptator. Is it better to.use a old joystick or a New on usb ?
The old joystick are very fragile

[Freshmaker]

I'll let the hardware-kings answer that.

[Steve Camber]

The first thing you should do is to get yourself an old joystick, one that you are familiar with.

If that doesn't work out for you then you can get more modern joysticks, but you will need to do some research to avoid disappointment.
