Welcome to the highlight reel.
Perhaps more than ever, this year's FIFA comes down to the little details. If you played last season's game, then the visuals, game modes, on-pitch action, and means of interaction will be immediately familiar. As a result, the learning curve in FIFA 15 is almost nonexistent.
New goalkeeper animations add diversity and visual flair; Opposition AI is more adaptable; less predictable; Ultimate Team's 'loan' system reduces the mode's inherent grind; Tactics and formations are easier to implement and design; Focus on attacking play makes for great online matches
Commentary remains awkward; Emphasis on exciting football could limit long-term depth
