  • Summary: On the pitch, critical gameplay fundamentals have been enhanced to ensure that FIFA Soccer 10 mirrors real-world soccer, providing more sophisticated ball control, and physical interaction between players. In addition, players now move, behave and position themselves more realistically. On attack, players analyze space more effectively, curve their runs in an attempt to stay onside, create passing lanes naturally, and drive for more variety in attacking options. On defense, new concepts like position priority enable defenders to multitask so dangerous spaces left open by teammates out of position are covered. Plus, slide tackle targeting, press marking, and better-urgency clearance logic provide new options that make defending a tactical skill in FIFA Soccer 10. In goal, a myriad of improvements and refinements to goalkeeper intelligence result in a more responsive and powerful rushing system and ultra-realistic saves. Better balance on lofted through balls, improved goalkeeper intelligence, more realistic shooting mechanics with less shots hitting the goal posts, a practice arena to perfect skills, and a more immersive soccer experience through continuous play and quick free kicks are just a few of the issues raised by fans and addressed in FIFA Soccer 10. Three new innovations revealed today at E3 have been developed to change the player control experience in FIFA Soccer 10. The first-ever true 360 degree dribbling system gives players finer control of the ball, enabling them to find spaces between defenders that previously were not possible. Using an all-new animation technology, skilled dribblers now have the ability to face the defender and use highly responsive lateral dribbling to skip past him. An innovative concept called Freedom in Physical Play enables players to perform wider dribble touches and new collision sharing creates a varied, less predictable, and extended fight for possession between the dribbler and a defender.
    FIFA Soccer 10 also features a deeper iteration of the ever-popular Manager Mode with more than 50 major improvements, including new match realism, realistic player transfers based on multiple decision points, and true-to-life player growth curves. [Electronic Arts]    … Expand

    FIFA 10 is the reference for license-driven soccer. Intriguing gameplay, brilliant graphics and the huge amount of different modes are driving the series towards perfection.

    Amazing feeling owning to the licenses and the new controls. Only the graphics are (still) not on high-end level.

    Despite a solid gameplay and a good number of modes, FIFA 10 on PC has nothing to do with the awesome soccer game that Xbox 360 and PS3 owners know so well. PES is still the better choice if you want to play this kind of titles on your personal computer.

    Yes, it's a better start than last year, but it's still leagues apart from the Xbox 360 and PlayStation versions. [Dec 2009, p.106]

    It's all about the gameplay: the graphics may not be up-to-date, but this feels like real football as opposed to PES, which feels like automated arcade (or German) football.… Expand

    Not bad, not bad at all. But it seems FIFA 10 for PC is just a cash-cow for EA, they're not putting a lot of effort in it, as it's pretty much the same as FIFA 09, sure some new features here and there, but I feel they could've done so much better had they spent some more time on it.… Expand

    It's ok, but the graphics engine is the same used on the PS2...time for an update i think? note, Cynamite's review (90) looks like it's based on the X360/PS3 version since they praise the obviously dated graphics as "brilliant".… Expand

    It's not the same version as PS3/X360, a sluggish game engine, poor controls and outdated graphics.
