  • Summary: The official soccer game of the 2002 Korea/Japan World Cup features new "Air Play" gameplay with intuitive one-button headers, volleys, scissor kicks, juggling and showboating. New player-to-player animations allow for agressive jostling for the ball on the ground and in the air. The Tournament Mode features a seven game series beginning with round-robin play, followed by playoffs leading to the final match with a progressive story line and a rising intensity as you advance.

    On it's own it's not terrible, but considering it's basically fifa 2002 except with a bunch less gameplay modes, and options world cup is a huge rip off. while i like the direction the fifa series is going on the whole (more realism... less magnetic ball to foot physics). again it's just fifa 2002 at more than double the price with less features. … Expand
