    good game and and career mode and gameplay is also very good and realistic as well not like fifa 14 15 16 when you simulate a game and it gives you random results. On fifa 12 everything is accurate which i like.

    A treat for all the football fans. This game is awesome. battle for possession makes it more interesting, good graphics, nice celebration moves, nice skill moves, the only thing I find it difficult is playing this game with the help of the keyboard. It makes it difficult to perform skill moves.

    This is the buggiest experience I've ever had with a game.

Couldn't get it to launch no matter what I tried even though there was a lot of people online with the same problem i.e. "Unable to Save Personal Settings" followed by a frozen picture of Wayne Rooney. Turns out the problem was the á in my name meaning I had to alter my computer name and Windows user name just to start this game up. This solution came a year late as the same ridiculous problem occurs with Fifa 13 so EA finally decided to offer some support. However, after playing through around 6 games of a season, I found out that I still couldn't save the game so playing manager mode is a no go. I then decided to play some online head to head only to find that I was denied every match due to the internet connection dropping, something that happens with no other game for me. So basically all I can do is play single games against the computer, and EA offer very little support in fixing the overwhelming issues with the game. I couldn't recommend this game on any level for the PC, if you want to play Fifa, you've got to go console.… Expand

They could not even get rid of ATI card microstuttering problem. If you have an ATI card, then you can play at most 2-3 matches fluently. This game offers a lot of things but does not give any of them completely. EA should buy some better engineers and fix this issues. Otherwise, I will continue thinking about that they are kidding us. I dont have 40 bucks to cast away one more time.… Expand

    It's the best football game on the market. Period.

    + Advanced Gameplay & New defensive system
    + Amazing online mode
    + Collision engine should be improved but it's waaaaay better than PES - Really bad football players make long passes and control the ball too easily

    I didn't like the movement of the players. It sucks when compared to PES 2012. The only thing that I think got better is the graphics. Otherwise, nothing has changes from the previous games

    I'll start with an overall rating.

    FIFA 12 PC (keyboard player) Gameplay: 3 Graphics: 8 Realism: 6 Menu: 7 Overall: 6. So far, the gameplay is the worst of all FIFA PC. Although the graphics is the best of all FIFA PC's. FIFA is the most unpredictable game soccer game ever published. You can win out of nowhere from the best, and you can loose from the worst. (example: Manager    I'll start with an overall rating.

    FIFA is the most unpredictable game soccer game ever published. You can win out of nowhere from the best, and you can loose from the worst. (example: Manager mode Schalke 04 played a match against Bayern who was on the top of the league with a lot of points ahead of number too. I managed to win 5-0, I was amazed, I never thought I could actually acomplish that. I didn't do it a second time either. Then I played a 3th league team. Which I defeaded after replaying it 5 times. I kept on getting goals against in the last minutes 87, 88. 89 and 90+) This is just one of the many, many, many examples.

    )Tactical defending, fail, leave it, do something else.
    )I lost games because of the self injury (wtf) because of 'OUTOFNOWHERE' ouch I am hurt I am not controlable anymore.
    )Impact engine, amazing. Only fail lots of lots of times.
    )Players have no sense in the game, they don't know when to expect a pass or how to walk for a thruw ball when countering. The players are just footballplayers who play individualy, there is no team spirit in them. Hard to discribe, many will understand.
    )Passing/thruwball makes no sense. The passing sucks, first of all. You pass to someone and it sometimes changes direction... or you just don't add enough power so it's really bad pass. Normal passes or like thruw balls many times, and the other way around.
    )CPU is great at long balls, really.
    -CPU is just BAD, seriously, fifa work on it..
    -CPU has the abilty to walk thruw your defends.. if you know what I mean, probably do.
    Just zig zag thruw the defenders while the defenders try to get the ball and faith away when they left there foot.
    It's just a complete mess when an attacker gets in 16 box.
    -CPU knows how to avoid tackles like a really big BOSSW.
    -CPU is just **** up, FIX IT.

    -Skill moves are no more.

    I don't know but It's really FIFA 12 PC, not 360.. If people want to play it with a xbox controller they will get a 360 themself.. OKAY. I will be able tell more, but I wont let fifa down to much. It's a perfect '6' game.
    Make FIFA 13 PC (KEYBOARDDD!) forget FIFA 12 PC.

    Take care.

    I wanted to like this game, but I don't. I started a career and created a player in my likeness. After a few seasons the team I played for was decimated by brainless transaction in the market, maybe only four original members of the team remaining and players like Wayne Rooney playing at fullback.

After a few seasons the team I played for was decimated by brainless transaction in the market, maybe only four original members of the team remaining and players like Wayne Rooney playing at fullback. So I became a player manager to keep things realistic, but it is too easy to buy players, even on the hardest setting, any player can be bought, if you can't afford him, just sell a few (easy). I dislike the the choices the computer makes on my behalf (you will NEVER chip a defender) so I turned all playing aids off. But the computer doesn't do what I tell it to do because my player is underdeveloped. I can't evolve him any further as there is a bug that prevents developments from saving after his rating reaches his mid-70's. The Pro camera angle only allows you to see in front of you but is essential once you turn the aids off as you need to point directly in the direction you need the ball to go in. You can adjust the camera to zoom out but that is only when you don't have the ball - so as a striker you can only pass the ball in front of you, not to the side or behind you. Not very useful. This game is mindless and the only reason why people buy it in the numbers that they do is because they are mesmerised by what they see on their TV screens. It's certainly not a good game. I gave it 3 because it does capture some good footbally moments but it just isn't worth it… Expand

    FIFA was a great game. it has every thing that a good game need.but actually it is really hard to work with the menu.and it has another problem that is the time of the game.i do nat want to play for 10 min but i force you to play at least 4 min for a half. i think 8 is good for this game.

    An awesome game!! That's it!! that's what FIFA 12 is. For a die hard fan of FIFA ,like me, FIFA 12 is one edition that stands out to be one of the greatest releases of the fifa games along with fifa 11. The changes done were awesome , defending is a bit hard in pc but if you have played fifa before , I am sure you will come to terms with it.

    New features such as the online gameplay has been improved really well making matches mean more. For instance on normal online play you have a set number of matches to reach the goal number of points. Reach this and you'll promoted to a higher division. gain too little and you'll be relegated.

    The gameplay can be as smooth as possible, but there is one problem with the game on PC, which drops the score a lot for me - and that is the controlls. It is superhard to get something going, especially those special moves. The game really isn't physically possible to play with the keyboard.

    Replayability is what really counts in football games. FIFA 12 manages to hook, entertain, surprise, and even more. The experience is majorly improved if you play with other people.

As a longtime FIFA player it take some time to get use to the new concept, but it is really worth it. I think I have managed to change the way to play the defense, but I have not grasped the dribbling yet. I see this as an inspiring challenging and hopefully it will improve my game ability, as well.

    Online multiplayer is FIFA 12's saving grace. Without it, it's a reasonably good game with fair graphics, deep defense system and a promising, albeit somewhat unnatural, player impact mechanics. With multiplayer, it's the best soccer game in quite some time.

    New football sim isn't flawless but it is able to attract fans and revive the spirit of competition in every player again. The weakest link is the referees (as usual). [Oct 2011]
