The best soccer game on the market as of now. It has everything a soccer gamer could want, and more.
-
While the game may still have some areas to iron out in terms of a few gameplay quirks and missing features, it still is one of the only choices on the market, but thankfully, it's a strikingly good one.
-
What's nice about FIFA is that it does a very nice mix of simulation and arcade gameplay that works wonderfully with the game.
-
The same easy scoring from 'sweet spots' plague the game and for some reason it's nigh on impossible to score from five yards out, one-on-one with the keeper. And because of the reliance on motion captured animation and pre-set special moves, you still never feel in complete control of the player. This aside, the improvements outweigh the old problems.
-
A game of football that is fast and fluid; now that the game uses its own engine and not a modification of the NHL one, its fair to say that issues such as stifled player controls and jerky animation transitions are well and truly a thing of the past.
-
The new first-touch control, the games biggest innovation for 2005 and the catalyst for this change in attacking emphasis, is brilliant. Its logical, easy to use, works as it should, looks realistic and can blow a game wide open.
-
If you are looking for a "pick up and play game", this might be your thing, but the hardcore soccer gamer will be under whelmed and jumping back to "Winning Eleven" in no time.
