when i played this the very first time i was amazed. graphically this is incredible. sountrack...well its ea sports, they always try to get the big names. the gameplay, all though fun at first is jsut so easy after a while. defence is non-existant. dance around them, do whatever, they might as well not be there. the goalies (even though improved) suck, once you get good at deking its jsut so easy to score. the only thing taht makes you lose sometimes, is your own goalie when you play on superstar difficulty players throw it at the net, and the goalies 60% of the time might as well not be there. almost every goal goes in off the post. i like how the goalies are much more realistic in how they move, but still the AI is terrible EA sports really needs to do something about it. i dont want to say rent it, because you might not find out how easy it is in the short time you ahve it. but i wouldnt say buy it aeaither because its a waste of money. fun to play a few times, dies in the long run. EA needs to work on AI (goalies and defence)
