 May want to just get FIFA 06 instead. October 13, 2006
4 out of 4 found this review helpful
It's hard to find review for this game just yet on the Web, so I figured I'd throw in my two cents. This is after playing the game for a few days.
Good
- Training mode: Allows you to do little mini-challenges to improve your guys ala Winning Eleven.
- Create Your Own Chant: Why don't they have this on the consoles? It's an outstanding idea! Well-executed, as well!
- Touch runs: Calling out a run using the touch pad is a fun idea. However, it's a little clumsy trying to use this feature in the middle of a game. (You'd probably want to use a stylus so you can be more exact, but it's not really an option in the middle of the action.)
Bad
- Gameplay issues: FIFA 06 played a pretty fun game of EA-style soccer. But this version seems to take a step back from FIFA 06. Very strange.
For example,
* Normal tackles are much, much, MUCH more touchy in 07. If you try to do a benign "A" tackle, and you're not directly in front of the attacker, you'll probably end up fouling the attacker.
* The AI seems to be sloppier than last time. I'm noticing a lot more bad clearances from the other team in non-dire situations.
* Finally, you need multiple cards for multiplayer games. You didn't in FIFA 06!
Essentially, if EA would've been able to add the new features & keep the FIFA 06 engine intact, we'd have a winner here. But as it stands, this game probably isn't much of an improvement over its predecessor.
If you want soccer on the DS, I'd say get a cheap copy of FIFA 06.
 Great game. October 8, 2006

Soccer games normally arent that good for the ds but this one is pretty fun. its got great modes and excellent gameplay. the only thing bad is that sometimes the controls seem to respond too slowly but other than that i recommend it. especially if soccer is your #1 favorite sport. p.s. the create-your-own chant mode is awesome.
