Only a few hours after its online kick off, the game Sensible World of Soccer has been removed from the Xbox 360 Live Arcade, due to technical problems. Leaving behind disappointed gamers who have waited a long time for the game's release, Sensible World of Soccer has been pulled back in order to fix functioning troubles.

It is reported that the Sensible World of Soccer has been grounded following problems for gamers while logged into Xbox Live. In the beginning this game was due to be released last summer, but suffered delays before its eventual issue. However, upon release it appears that this version of the game somehow managed to disconnect gamers that were trying to play live, which is probably the main idea behind the whole game. When they were disconnected, players were forced to return to the dashboard in order to sign in once again. Once the presence of the bug was realized, the Sensible World of Soccer game was swiftly removed from the Xbox360 Live Arcade.

It is also reported that anyone who downloaded this problematic version of Sensible World of Soccer is recommended to delete the same copy. Once a correctly running version of the game will be available, then this should be downloaded instead, in order to enable Xbox Live enjoyment of the game. Apparently, for users who purchased the game version and now are advised to delete, there will be no charge for downloading when the corrected Sensible World of Soccer version is up and running.

Microsoft and Codemasters are believed to be checking into the matter so that a working version of Sensible World of Soccer will be released as soon as possible.
