Some sites have selectively edited the reviews of Euro 2000 from EA, leaving only the good parts. Read an edited portion of consoledomain.com's review before you buy:
"For me, the most disappointing factor here is the long running problem with the ease of scoring. Basically, as you run hell for leather by hammering the triangle button, Track and Field style, a simple press of the shoot button when inside the opponent's area will virtually guarantee you a goal every time. FIFA fans will probably love this simple gameplay, but for me the whole skill element is sadly lacking... When compared to the current game of the moment – Konami's ISS Pro Evolution, Euro 2000 can appear jerky and its physics seem poorly judged. If you've already got FIFA 2000, be warned that this is very similar and I believe that not enough has changed to warrant owning both... Not as good as ISS Pro Evolution."
