Before you read this you should know that i'm not a big gamer - mainly sports games and driving games. I don't have an encyclopedic knowledge of the games market - but i do have an opinion as a general games player. I have played Fifa 10 three times now. At first glance the graphics are excellent and really draw you in. However after a few games the limitations really start to show up. The players don't move as you want them to and the interaction between the players is oddly stilted. I... (read more)

Great graphics, absorbing gameplay but fatally flawed by ridiculously difficult controls. I have played it for the last time, constantly giving it the benefit of the doubt but now it seems clear: there are some times when the game absolutely refuses to allow you to score. You can be inches from the goal line, with no keeper or opposing player in sight and all the player has to do is to tap the shoot button and surely they'll score. Not if the game doesn't want you to. Go over the bar, get... (read more)

Brilliant game. Both the gameplay and graphics are top notch. The 360 degree movement of players makes the game fantastic to play and much more realistic. The most realistic part of the game has to be, as is usual with FIFA, the licence. The Manager Mode is quality as is the Be a Pro mode; the new Virtual Pro part of the game is fantastic; a great addition to an already great game. The only problem I have with the game is that sometimes the commentary can be a bit iffy (i.e. incorrect... (read more)

On the pitch the game is great, the only real problem is that keepers come off their line far too easily leading to multiple lobbings. Double tapping triangle to keep them on the line doesn't work as well as it used to. Players lack individuality but that has always been an issue. As i say though, make no mistake, on the pitch it is a great game.
I don't really play online as people are only ever Man utd, Barca, Inter and this time the Uber team is Real. There is a filter this time which...

You could easily read a review of FIFA 09 and it would read the same as any new reviews so I will in short review the changes and improvements on a vastly improved model. The so hailed revolution of 360 degree movement is seemingly unoticable however lodged deep within the game exists a more realistic style of play only revered by the most hardcore of games it makes some difference when picking out passes but in the large it is unknowingly helpful.
The transfer window has been and gone and...

So, before everyone goes nuts, I have of course only playe the demo of Fifa 2010. So, this is a review of the demo - just to be clear. My involvement in this boils down to sitting and watching my 6 year old son playing it - his idea of us playing together is me telling him how well he is doing. And he does insist on Playing as Barcelona - I do hope the full game allows him to select the Mighty Southampton FC. Playability looks pretty good so far, but tonight we are going head to head - that... (read more)

OK, played the whole thing now and it's pretty good. I am not a 'gamer' so I haven't played all the different modes or online, but for a simple 'me vs. elder son' it's provided plenty of fun. Just wish he would tone down the triumphant celebrations a bit.
