An advanced FIFA Soccer 10 features core gameplay refinements based on responsiveness and intelligence, plus a completely overhauled Manager Mode that includes more than 50 major improvements. These enhancements and more deliver a new standard for authenticity, as FIFA Soccer 10 continues to set the benchmark in both innovations and gameplay as the most complete simulation of soccer.
On the pitch, critical gameplay fundamentals have been enhanced to ensure that FIFA Soccer 10 mirrors real-world soccer, providing more sophisticated ball control, and physical interaction. On attack, players now analyze space more effectively, curve their runs in an attempt to stay onside, create passing lanes naturally, and drive for more variety in attacking options. On defense, new concepts like position priority enable defenders to multitask so dangerous spaces left open by teammates out of position are covered. Plus, slide tackle targeting, press marking, and better urgency clearance logic provide new options that make defending a tactical skill in FIFA Soccer 10.
Three new innovations change the player control experience in FIFA Soccer 10. The first-ever true 360° dribbling system gives players finer control of the ball, enabling them to find spaces between defenders that previously were not possible. Using an all-new animation technology, skilled dribblers now have the ability to face the defender and use highly responsive lateral dribbling to skip past him. An innovative concept called Freedom in Physical Play enables players to perform wider dribble touches and new collision sharing creates a varied, less predictable, and extended fight for possession between the dribbler and a defender.
Disappointing single player experience I've no doubt this game pleases those who enjoy on-line play and Be a Pro, but the popular single player Manager Mode is dreadful this time around. You are supposed to be able to play over 15 seasons but in reality, the many glitches in the game makes it pointless to continue after one season. It is quite obvious that EA did not take any care at all in testing manager mode, despite all the claims they made for it prior to launch; there have been zero improvements, it is badly designed and full of bugs (more than 60 identified so far).
Frankly, I feel robbed and will think twice before purchasing anything EA for a long time to come.
Keeps getting better The FIFA series is on constant improvement, and has far surpassed other football series in quality.
The freedom of movement in FIFA 2010 is the greates addition, no doubt... Made me not even want to see FIFA 2009 (which I already though was pretty sweet) again...
Best Soccer Game EVER I haven't played FIFA for a long time, so decided to get 2010 to see what has been changed. Man was I in for a surprise. The graphics are so real, even the faces of some of the stars are realistic.
I like the fact how you can train a soccer player from scratch and try to achieve those goals set out in order to unlock some more funky moves.
Definitely recommend this game to anyone, whether you're a novice or a pro..
Best soccer game around FIFA 10 is definitely an improvement on previous versions. This one lets you control the user more naturally and there are less "restrictions" so it feels more realistic.
As usual the graphics are great and the framerate is always fast.
If you love your soccer games, i highly recommend this one!
