Let's Be Realistic May 5, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Fifa is the only choice you have if you care about playing a game with accurate info. Some complain about game play (unreasonably), but the real club and stadium names make this the only product you can really consider if you actually follow football/soccer. This is one of the top games on the market today, sport or otherwise. 4 stars because any yearly game could use some improvements from year to year.
Possible needs:
-More stadium names and physical accuracy
-More international squads
-More budgetary accuracy in managerial mode
Still improving March 26, 2008

FIFA has long been a fun game, but some have stated that FIFA was more arcade-style while its main competitor, Pro Evolution Soccer, was more realistic than FIFA. The people at EA Sports heard the detractors and have worked for the past couple years to make FIFA more realistic while keeping the fun intact. With this year's game, they have made further strides in this pursuit. While FIFA still may be a step behind PES in terms of realism, it is now a very slight step. The main improvements in the newest installment of the game include a smarter AI, lower scorelines (which in and of itself makes things more realistic), formations based upon each individual team, an improved passing system, and new leagues and teams. The new passing system is perhaps the biggest change and it does take time to master, but once you do you can make pinpoint passes that were not possible in previous versions of the game. Also on the plus side, the graphics are still very good on the PS2 version and the game is still fun to play. I've been playing FIFA for a long time, but have never been enough of a gamer to play it on the highest level of difficulty so I may not be the best reviewer, but I think the game is more challenging than past versions as well.
As for negatives, I have only two beefs with the game. One is that while the new, team-based formations are supposed to be based on fact, some are off. And I also wish that the user could customize formations a bit easier to move players around the pitch, but beyond that this is an excellent game. The second negative is that, again this may be perhaps I'm not a gamer, but the defenders on your team, whether you control them or not, are just awful. The computer's players will run all the way from midfield to the face of the goal and you're defenders won't be able to stop them. This happens even on the lowest difficulty levels. It means that you won't have many games where you win 6-0, but it also means you'll give up some cheap, bogus goals.
Even if you think PES is more realistic, FIFA is worth picking up and giving a try.

My sons had a lot of fun playing the game. They couldn't wait to have it.
Now they play whenever they are allowed to play.
The best fifa yet January 27, 2008

This is probably the best fifa yet, however if you play the next gen versions (ps3, xbox360) you will be disappointed in the graphics. With that said, the gameplay is very good, and the new be be a pro mode is a remarkable innovation in football sim. The new manual cross and manual true pass makes the gameplay a bit more difficult than previous versions, but its a lot more realistic and hence a lot more fun to play. I would recommend this game to any soccer gamer.
 FIFA08 is a good game but not enough. January 23, 2008
The game is good but we need more emotion. Also changing the configuration of the controls with respect to the previous versions put some incomodida who has already played before. The new options Online game is good but having to re-enter each time it finishes one game left some disagreement
