The FIFA 08 is back and as good as ever. once you have a look at the main menu everything seems to be in place. I have often felt that FIFA holds back a lot of modes for its later re-releases of the same game spruced up for the Champion League or something similar but everything seems to be on that main menu, be it exhibition, scenario, online, manager mode, tournament & league creation to name but a few.
What about the gameplay itself then? Well it looks better than ever. Players resemble their real world counterparts more realistically than ever, the commentary by Martin Tyler & Andy Gray is more in-depth, realistic and intelligent than ever, the crowd noises are more realistic and seem to react to the game and the frame rate is superb and never flickers. OK, it takes sometime to master the controls, but if you are a long time FIFA fan, i don't think it will take much time to get a hang of it to start things going. I have to admit that the controls are not "super" smooth, but is not bad as well...
FIFA 08 takes the online element to a whole new level. The online play is as smooth as the offline action, and I have checked this myself with a 512 kbps internet line... The action was smooth and stable for all the matches I played...
FIFA 08 is a brilliant game, enjoyable and slick with many new treats and a must have for any soccer fan out there...
