Review Summary

FIFA 08 challenges players to master the skills required to play like a professional football player. Fans around the world can experience the same highs and lows of real-world players and tackle the challenges they face on a daily basis. The FIFA 08 next-gen gameplay engine, built to maximize the power of the PlayStation 3 computer and entertainment system, delivers animations and ball control that is so responsive you feel like you are actually on the pitch. Players are now aware of their surroundings, reacting authentically to threats and opportunities to make intelligent decisions. Now with the FIFA 08 shooting system you can enjoy even more control and precision in front of the goal to become a true marksman. For the first time ever, fans playing FIFA 08 will face the pressure to improve their game that real-world players endure every day. A new play mode called Be A Pro locks you in the role of a single player and challenges you to master the same disciplines as a real professional player-from positioning and tackling to reading the field and passing.

    Editorial: The greatest battle of the new football season is not between any real world club but between the virtual giants of FIFA and Pro Evolution Soccer. Konami's game has always been the favourite but last year FIFA closed the gap to such a degree that the title race has never been closer. This year's FIFA uses a completely new game engine, for the first time built specifically for the next gen consoles. But improved graphics and animation are only the half of it... Read more

    The first FIFA game on the Wii is a decent stab at adapting the famous football series for Nintendo's console. If you're a fan of the series and the Wii is the only console you own, you should definitely check it out--but bear in mind that it's not as playable or fully featured as the Xbox 360 and PS3 versions. Judged against other Wii titles it's still an addictive and well-rounded package, though, particularly thanks to the standard-setting online mode. As it stands... Read more

    You can look forward to burning off a few pounds too with FIFA 08 for Wii, as the game's controls turn FIFA 08 on the Wii into a more physical game than its siblings. You can use your whole body to control everything from tackling to shooting and throw-ins to free kicks, and you can try to send the ball just where you want to with a wave of the Wii remote and Nunchuk. Note here that practice does make perfect in the end. With the in-game Football Academy, you can lear... Read more

  1. "Weird controlls and hard to pick up..."

    I bought this game from a friend for £5 + super smash football for GC. The game had confusing controlls which are hard to pick up. The online mode is good, but i hardly play it much, prefering to pick up Mario olympics or MSCF... The lack of premier league or anything resembling a career, is a fatal mistake, wich makes this game only good for multiplayer..PES 08 is apparently much better... but to give it some credit, the multiplayer is good Read more
