FINALLY I GOT MY Xbox 360 back from Repair and was able to tryout Fifa 07, My firts impression was how incredible the graphics were and then on the loading menu I can already see that the shooting in the game is the best I have seen in soccer gaming to date, it feels real and has logic to it, not like in past FIFA installments where I could have my back turned to goal and simply take a shot and have it go in the upper corner of the goal. Just to say it again, the shooting is better then past fifa's and even current Pro Evo's, it simulates the precision that it really takes in real life to get a great strike on target. (Also thee goalkeepers seem to be better as well) Also I like how the CPU also has trouble get a shot on target.
Then I got to playing an exhibition match, I immediately saw the difference but had one nagging feeling, that the players were not moving as freely as in the loading screen and that was frustratig me (they seemed to be limited), the players seemed to be like robots but then thanks to this forum and the wonderful people here that post, I realized that its exactly like Pro Evo, in that you have go to the settings menu and controller seting and move the assisted CPU slider and asssisted passsing all the way to zero (Or all the way to the left). WOW what a difference that made my players were cutting more precise and my passing was more on and controlled.
The AI is very interesting in like OVNY and LUVPES stated in past threads, it seems that you never play the same type of game twice even if you play the same opponent again and again....let me explain. It all depends on how you set up your formations and how you change your tactics within the game, the defenses move very well as well as the players seem to support the attack very well. They also tend to pick up on your attackin tendencies.
Scoring, the few times I got to score I felt the same excitement that I did when I purchased my first Pro Evo and saw how difficult it was to score and life like, and in turn celebrated enthusiastically because of how complicated it was to score and how when I did score it actually felt like an accomplishment.
To sum up in on the positives of the game, I feel that FIFA finally is getting it right and as I play more and more and get better at the game I know will discover more things about the game that I like as I did with Pro Evo, I can't wait to get online and get some matches, but first I have to improve.
Some complaints that I heard were about things outside the game which really don't bother me (Like More Leagues, Stadiums, Cuts scenes) b/c I know that FIFA will fix them, but complaints about game play such as the crossing, to me it seems pretty spot on, of course its hard to get a header in the game, its not that easy like in real life, maybe the headers can be a bit more powerful, but I think if we play more we will find the right way to get a perfect header, remember practice makes perfect. (Well actually thats something that bothers me, no practice mode.)
Finally what I like is that the game has, is that its not predictable, like in past FIFA you knew where to go to always to get a goal on the field or how when you did score the CPU came back through the middle of the field and score with ease.(Rubbish). All in all great game which will hold me over hopefully to next year. If you guys know anything else oabout settings type things to improve teh game let me know.
