The game itself is a bit more realistic than last year's edition, therefore making it harder. I would say it's a bit frustrating at times, but when you put in the effort, it pays off. I'm also experiencing some lag on the menus with PS3. Other than that, it's quite enjoyable.

good simulation, more realistic player mechanics compared to 13

A great game with a great interface and awesome game play. The best feature have to be the Ultimate Team and Seasons Game Features. Overall, an awesome game and a must have if you are a football or sports fan.

You could argue that FIFA 14 shows EA Sports is running out of ideas, then, but for me this is a developer that knows exactly what it's doing. Neither the football match engine nor Ultimate Team were broken in any major way, and the placebo effect of a suite of control and balance tweaks, along with...

FIFA 14 , at least on current-gen consoles, is not the next big step for the EA Canada developed soccer franchise. Rather, it seems like almost like the studio polished the already innovative features they introduced with its predecessors: new physics in FIFA 12 and First Touch Control in FIFA 13 .

Personally i have been a big fan of FIFA series dating back to FIFA 10, bought the game almost every year since then and have played hundreds of matches over last several years. Every year the story remains the same, a new game (with overall functionality similar to previous game) comes out with a...

With next-gen consoles on the horizon and a brand new engine amply titled IGNITE which will power future EA sports titles, I'm not surprised that FIFA14 looks and feels like FIFA13 .

+ Revamped UI which works wonders; + Plethora of game modes to cater for everyone; + New gameplay additions tweak game for the better

- AI still dumb in various situations; - Current gen hardware limitations hinders experience; - Players injure themselves far to easily

"It is a slower, more methodical game that can frustrate as often as it delights" "You're often forced to play the ball out wide to avoid the mass of humanity standing between yourself and the goal." "Goals feel more organic and varied here than they have in a FIFA game for years.

Stunning presentation and attention to detail; More varied and more attractive goals; Expanded career mode with better scouting

Stodgy midfield battles; Movement is stuttery and clumsy; Player errors take control from your hands

Well, well, FIFA it's quite nice to see you again. But I must be up front-I've been hanging out with another. We're not going to drop any names, but I'll just say it starts with "Pro" and ends with "Soccer." Sometimes "Evolution" is actually involved, but let's not talk about that… yet.
