FIFA 10 Review


FIFA 10 Game Review.

FIFA 9 is considered the best football game of all time but after playing FIFA 10 for a week it looks like it's improved on it's predecessor. Some of the improvements are in one on one physical contests; in heading battles and dribbling contests, crossing, corners and free kicks. So basically most of the game play has been further improved on last years version. Another thing that has been fixed up are the throw ins, although not a big thing at least they're no longer are annoying negative.

One of the new additions to FIFA 10 is the practice arena where you can practice playing a match as well as practicing the various set pieces. In the practice arena you can also make your own custom set pieces which you can later use in a match. Also there are supposed to have been more then 50 improvements to the Manger Mode. For most of the time I've been playing FIFA 10 in the week since it's come out I've been playing manager mode and other then the assistant coach setting which I'll get to later, the main change in Manger Mode appears just to be the layout and appearance.

In theory the assistant coach setting look liked a good edition to Manger Mode, basically if you had the assistant coach mode on it would select your match day squad using form, quality and fatigue of your players to choice the best players available. I decided to turn the assistant coach mode off after it started choosing full-backs to play at centre-back, midfielders to play in defense and attacking midfielders to play in defensive midfield positions.

As well as the football with every year the music is getting more important in FIFA. More evidence of this can be found on the front cover of FIFA 10, which has a sticker telling you were you can download an exclusive remix from a band. Unfortunately there are less songs from Australians in FIFA 10 then there has been in past editions.

FIFA 10 rating 9/10.
