FIFA 360 Update from IGN

Thanks for posting the Gamespot link. That preview was much more insightful than IGN's.

My favourite quote:

At this stage, the game is hugely impressive, and that's without even talking about the immaculate presentation and fully licensed teams and leagues.

The IGN does seem a little biased to me.

After playing the demo many many many times, I think the game is the greatest football game I have played to date. It just feels real, more of a simulation than an arcade football game.

To compare, I recently bought NHL07 for the 360. This also is a simulation, which seems the way EA is currently heading. Compared to the arcadey NHL 2K7 I believe EA is heading in the right direction. Now, compare the IGN score of these two hockey games, and they side with the arcade version.

I really can't wait to play the full game as I am longing to play a realistic football game as Chelsea. I want to do a season, to play online against others and really get into this game.

So far, the only negatives I have are the lack of leagues and teams, cut scene graphics, stadium detail and some player likeness models. However, these are all small things that will be ironed out! For me, they finally got #1 right; simulated gameplay!

Compared to the arcadey NHL 2K7 I believe EA is heading in the right direction.

PhilH930 & others: In the right direction??????????????????????????????????????
How long is the journey? Where are they going? To outer space? I am up to my ears with this cliche: "Fifa is headed in the right direction" WTF? With all the money in the world, they cannot get to their destination? Every year it's the same quote: "Fifa is headed....... :sleep: PES has arrived in the direction fifa is trying to reach years ago! I mean, how much more slack are you gonna cut EA? I bet you when I'm 40, I'll hear, "Fifa is headed in....... :sleep:

Well, I'm sorry but Fifa have had ample time to get there. They keep churning out inferior gameplay, gimmicks, etc. I had high hopes from this 360 version and so far 80% of reviews, previews have been negative. That's enough for me. They should get their sh!!te together and make a game as good or better than Konami's.
