Just played a few games with the demo. Had few thoughts, hopefully some others can comment.

In all, the game looks good - of course the full depth of it - commentary, etc. is not available as of yet.

The pitch is indeed much larger, but the camera angle in the demo is a little low - hopefully there is a better option in the real game.

Graphics are superb - and I don't even have a graphics card. The new skill moves are really sweet - well modeled after actual footwork in footie.

The power bar is going to take some adjusting too. You can really crank the ball, but I had a whale of a time hitting the bloody net.

Cut scenes. replays are the best of any FIFA series I've seen.

Didn't notice a great difference in the keeper, and the ball doesn't seem to travel on grass as quickly as some of us might like.

I'm not certain, but by the looks of it, there may be able to score lob goals. HAven't played enough yet though.

I'm pretty sure I'm going to buy it. And the video card too.

I'd give it an 8 out of 10, if you can rate a demo.

Yeh overall the game seems feels good, with the other camera angles, commentary ect it should be pretty sweet. One thing I noticed however was the crowd, up close it looks diagaceful as blocky as hell, man I expect better from EA especially when the crowd looked 10 times better last year hopefully the patch makers amongst us can improve it hehe. The power bar seems ok and the overall feel of the game is good. An improvement over last year YES but the fifa series still has a long way to go, my rating 7.5/10.
