TOKYO--When it comes to women playing volleyball in video games, most fans only know about Team Ninja's bodacious beach babes of the Dead or Alive: Xtreme Beach Volleyball series. Still, it's entirely possible to make a female volleyball game without the revealing swimwear and gravity-betraying jiggle physics, as the developers at Spike are proving with the upcoming FIVB Volleyball World Cup: Venus Evolution. We had a chance to check out the game on the floor of the 2007 Tokyo Game Show to see what it was like playing a volleyball video game that didn't immediately induce a staggering sense of shame whenever a woman walked by us.
It's not surprising that a World Cup volleyball game would be released here in Japan. After all, the country has hosted the Men's and Women's World Cup games--held every four years--since 1977. For a Japanese sports game--which can get a bit wacky--Venus Evolution, despite its title (we'll be honest, we have no idea what 'Venus Evolution' refers to), is as straightforward and true to the sport of indoor volleyball as you could hope.
The game's controls make heavy use of the different face buttons on the PlayStation 2 controller. To serve, you press the X button in time with a vertical meter shown next to the serving player. The closer you hit the button when the meter is full, the better your serve. In fact, once we got the timing down, it was pretty easy to get aces on our opponents. In one nice touch, the game showed a variety of player-specific serves, such as jump, overhand, and underhand serves.
When the ball is served to you, you can set the bump by pressing any button. However, the timing is delicate, and we found you had to more or less press the button just before the ball reached the passing player to keep the ball in play. If you press too early or too late, the ball would go flying toward the back court and out of bounds. Once the ball is passed to the setter, we typically had a couple of choices for whom to set the ball to, all indicated by button icons over their heads. Pressing the X button would set the ball to that player. Spikes were handled more or less automatically, but we could add extra power to the shot by holding down the appropriate button. However, if we put too much juice on the shot, would send the ball out of bounds.
When on defense, your only real job is to guess when to jump to block an opponent's spike. As when on offense, the front-line defensive players also have button icons above their heads; you could send just one player up high by pressing her appropriate button or send the entire line up by pressing the triangle button. Once again, timing is tricky when trying to block an opponent's shot, but it certainly wasn't impossible. Once you got the timing down on all of the different shots, it was easy to get into the flow of the game, sending balls back and forth over the net in well-timed trios of bumps, sets, or spikes. The CPU automatically chose the player closest to the ball for you to control when running down a shot, and we had more than a few dramatic diving saves keeping a volley alive during our match.
There seems to be a lot of game to be played in Volleyball World Cup because the game will feature teams from such countries as USA, Japan, South Korea, and more, as well as plenty of information on the teams themselves. We're not sure if the players in the game are officially licensed or not, and the game's rather pedestrian graphics weren't sharp enough for us to recognize any of the players. Still, the mechanics of volleyball seem to be working just fine, and that's all you really need from this type of game. A US release for Volleyball World Cup doesn't seem likely at this point, but Japanese fans will be playing the game when it's released next month. This will be just ahead of the start of the 2007 Volleyball World Cup being held, once again, here in Japan.

Performance History[edit]
2000-until now[edit]
After the sixth place in the Sydney Olympic Games, the Brazilian men’s national team underwent some important changes ahead of the 2001 season. Mr. Bernardo Rezende, nicknamed Bernardinho, who had spent six years coaching the women's national team, was chosen to be the head coach of the Brazilian men's national team. In the first season with Bernardinho, the team conquered three gold medals (World League, America's Cup and South American Championship) and one silver medal (World Grand Champions Cup). In 2002, Brazil finished second in the World League after losing the title at home in the match against Russia. But in that same season, they conquered the World Championship for the first time ever.
The beginning of the 2003 season was very special for the World Champions. In an exciting final match against Serbia and Montenegro, Brazil won the World League gold medal for the third time, beating its opponent 3–2 in Madrid. After that, the team was defeated by Venezuela in the semifinal of the Pan American Games in Santo Domingo (Dominican Republic) and ended up with the bronze in the competition. However, the Brazilian squad beat Venezuela by 3–0 in the South American Championship final only one month later. That year ended with Brazil conquering the last title it had not won yet: the World Cup, in Japan.
In 2004, Bernardinho led the Brazilian team to a fourth title of the World League. In August, the Brazilian men's team won the second Olympic gold medal of its history, which happened in Athens in 2004 (the first one was conquered in Barcelona in 1992). In the final, Brazil beat Italy 3–1.
In the 2005 season, the Olympic Champion won four medals. In the final match against Serbia and Montenegro, Brazil won another gold medal in the World League, beating its opponent 3–1. After that, the team became second in the America's Cup, defeated by the United States in the final. Then in the South American Championship, Brazil conquered its 25th title, winning all matches and losing just one set. To end this great season, Bernardo Rezende’s team secured the gold medal in the World Grand Champions Cup in Japan. During the year 2006, the Brazilian team won a sixth title in the World League and a second title in the World Championship. This team was considered by many the best and most consistent men's volleyball team of all time.
