  Sensible Software - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Sensible Software was a highly regarded software house in the nineties from the United Kingdom that released several games, amongst those the popular Sensible Soccer series and Cannon Fodder.
Lately, Sensible Software has only released games in the Sensible Soccer series, and as computers gained cheap 3D rendering abilities and titles such as Actua Soccer and FIFA turned to 2.5D and 3D, the market for the series quickly shrunk to a small niche.
Sensible Software almost went bankrupt, and are now a subsidiary company of Codemasters.

 Sensible Soccer - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Sensible Soccer, often referred by fans as Sensi is a football video game series that was highly popular in the early 1990s and which still retains a cult following.
Developed by Sensible Software and first released for Amiga and Atari ST computers in 1992, it featured a bird's-eye view (most games until then such as Kick Off and Matchday used top down or side view), editable teams and (some claim) gameplay ahead of it's time.
Sensible Soccer spawned several clones, amongst them Croteam's Football Glory, for which they were sued by Sensible Software.

The "trademark" of the Sensible Software's games were the pin-like characters, used in Sensible Soccer, Cannon Fodder (altough slightly different) and Sensible Golf.
Sensible Golf, a simple golf video game (not a simulation) did not well in the market and received poor reviews.
In the late days, Sensible Software only released games in the Sensible Soccer series, and as computers gained cheap 3D rendering abilities and games such as Actua Soccer and FIFA turned to 2.5D and 3D the market for the series quickly turned to a small niche.

 Sensible Software Testing
Software can fail in many ways, and mistakes are introduced into the code from many different sources.
Software debuggers allow the programmer to start and stop execution, modify the data in memory and registers, and sometimes trace execution and coverage.
A software filter uses the most recent data value, as well as a certain number of previous values (for the same data variable) in various weights, to produce a filtered data result.

Whenever this software runs, this box --- it could be implemented as a chroot jail on Linux, but that would suck --- determines its view of the world.
The software can't see anything that isn't in the box when it's invoked (except for things that get passed in from the outside by the invoker).
Other software that depends on the old version of the software will keep using the old version unless you change it.

 Interview - A Sensible Decision /// Eurogamer
Its simple, fast, fluid playability remains virtually unmatched even now, and its re-release by Radica in the form of a plug and play TV gaming device is a stroke of genius that's sure to have gamers' nostalgia glands flowing at the thought of resuming old rivalries on this old classic.
Produced by Sensible Software at the peak of its powers back in 1992, the game still feels every bit as fresh and playable now, and we've reviewed this cute retro package here.
All of these are Sensible Software's flagship games titles of the 90's, all re-packaged in the Arcade Legends Sensible Soccer Plus plug and play TV kit.

 BW Online | January 4, 2002 | Stephen Cross: Crusader for Sensible Software
Yet from his perch as the director of the influential Software Engineering Institute at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh, Cross is spreading the seeds of a quiet revolution in the software business.
Another is that the high cost of reinventing the wheel with every new software project may force companies -- sooner rather than later -- to consider code as an integrated part of a manufacturing process, Cross believes.
And rather than use a separate set of software to control each of the dozens of engines in its lineup, Cummins has built a single set of code, based on reusable components, that goes into all of its engines.

 [No title]
As a software developer, I can tell you that preferences frequently do add quite a bit of code complexity as well; some more than others, but even simple preferences can add a lot of complexity if there are 200 of them.
The traditional, de facto free software line between when a preference should exist and when it shouldn't is "a preference should exist if someone implements it or asks for it." No one is going to seriously defend this one though.
As the maintainer of a free software package, it's really tough to stand up to the continuous barrage of feature requests, many of which are "requests for preferences," often accompanied by patches.

 AVault | PC | Sensible Soccer '98 Review   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
Sensible Soccer '98 is the latest title from Sensible Software and approaches the game of soccer from a different angle than many soccer games on the market.
Sensible released a patch that is supposed to improve Sensible Soccer, but the game was reviewed based on the shape it was in when released (as we always do).
Besides, Sensible doesn't actually tell you what the patch fixes, only that it addresses requests and feedback from players.

As social studies educators, we recognize that computers are a valuable tool in many areas of the curriculum, In social studies courses, however, the choice of software is critical to the effectiveness of computer usage.
To prepare for selecting software, my first advice is to select and subscribe to a personal computer journal, such as MacWorld, MacUser or A+.
Most of the articles are written in layman's terms, and the teacher will rapidly develop an awareness of terminology and available software.

Sensible has been on the edge of disaster since they discovered that there wasn’t a publisher on Earth that was willing to distribute and pay for Sex 'n' Drugs 'n' Rock 'n' Roll.
After four years in development,the innovative FMV adventure was to have featured some pretty ‘accurate’ representations of the average pop celebs life including obscene sexual acts, various illegal substances, and a very British sense of humour (although which element US publishers took most offence at is not clear).

 Amiga Reviews: Sensible Soccer V1.1
It's a testament to Sensible Soccer's supreme playability that it was the only game capable of knocking Anco's Kick 0ff II from its position as the ultimate footy sim.
However, as is always the case, the best could have been better, and whilst Sensible Soccer outflanked Anco's aging star in terms of playability, realism, and graphical finesse, its goalies were veritable Helen Kellers and it completely ignored fouls, red cards, and bookings.
Time restrictions could have been blamed as Renegade were keen to get Sensible out in time for the European Championships, but even without these features, the Sensi boys did good.

 News: Sensible Soccer coming to GBA?
We refer, of course, to Sensible Soccer, a title developed by Sensible Software, with a soundtrack by Captain Sensible that was, however, anything but sensible in its genius.
Following the original Commodore Amiga version in 1992, Sensible Soccer has appeared on over ten formats, spreading footballing joy to the four corners of the gaming world in pre-ISS times.
Since then, much has changed: Sensible Software was assimilated by Codemasters, ISS and FIFA came to dominate the football market and Sensible Soccer was consigned to the great gaming graveyard.

Even so, Sensible Software themselves lost the gameplay feeling with SWOS '98, so it might take some luck for them to find their way back to the 2D roots.

SWOS '98 (or Sensible Soccer '98 to be exact) wasn't released on Amiga because it used 3D graphics for which the Amiga was too weak.
