FIFA 08 (video game)

Customer Review

As I've been looking forward to finally be able to enjoy a real football game on the Wii, and it looked at first like this when I could FIFA08 offer this fun, but now I wish I almost did not buy me.

1. The graphics are lower mediocrity. From a bird's-eye view of the players partly pixelated and the movements are not really smooth and realistic. Just not up to date and also the Wii can conjure better graphics.

2. In terms of realism Fifa is its competitor Pro Evolution Soccer anyway inferior but it seems to me as Fifa would apply this fate and tries also garnicht more to remedy the deficiencies in ball and player physics. Shots hit often the aluminum as the gateway or are transformed into goals if you always shoots in the same way. In tackling opponent and ball act like two magnets gleichgepolte whereby the ball is already as good as lost, it when the opponent approaches him.

3. The control is more than used to. Shots are with upward or downward movement of the Wiimote triggered thereby controlled shooting often is difficult and rather random excess force and income level decides. If you are well intentioned towards the game, you could say that it increases the realism for which footballers can always controlled to schießen.Allerdings sometimes annoys you about the goal which would have certainly looked like in reality, in the circumstances differently.

4. My pet peeve, however, is the online mode. From the idea and the presentation ago he is not badly done but the longer you play the more blatant a fall on the grievances. Worst of all are the constant game crashes because for some reason the network connection is disconnected in the middle game. And not because the opponent has gone away but simply arbitrarily what is one then also counted as a defeat. My dropout rate amount partially over 50% whereby the gameplay simply lost. The manufacturer's recommended router settings have not solved the problem for me.
Other players it is with seemingly better but there are also plenty who have the same problem as me and I think it should be possible to deliver EA stable for all online mode. When Mario Football Nintendo has also managed that well ...
In addition there are minor flaws, such as the inability to change his line-up before an online game or that you can only communicate using predefined terms, rather than being able to write freely.

Conclusion: I now have mainly concentrated on the negative aspects, as I now am at a point where I regret buying partially. However, despite the aforementioned shortcomings, it does have a relatively high fun factor, especially in online mode, and precisely because of this sloppy mistakes are so bad.

Anyone over the lack of realism that can overlook mediocre graphics and controls, which is quite have fun at Fifa. And if you have more luck with the online games than I, the purchase could be worth even correct.

But who can expect more and without licenses, should rather wait for Pro Evolution Soccer.
