    FIFA games in PS 2 were disaster. I played them too much but, it was just like walking in the park to dribble past 7 guys on legendary difficulty versus any team with any player. Then there were some broken players, scoring everything from an angle. Even when playing with your friends, I suggest PES. It has joke graphics, but its gameplay is much better.

    In PS3, FIFA over PES all day.

    What are you guys on about? FIFA 08 for PS2 was probably one of the best in the series in my opinion. The graphics were **** but who cares about graphics when the game itself was fun and nostalgic.

    I can't tell you how angry i am. This game is a shame. I thought it was going to be better than ever. It turned out to be the worst ever.

    I would probably rate this game higher if i had not played the Pro Evolution Soccer series. Next to Pro Evo FIFA falls short on many levels including FIFA 08.

    Just an absolute waste of time. This is the worst FIFA game in the series. I started in 07 and I loved that game. Now I get this crap. I am just very upset.

    What the users say are true. I can truly agree with them. This game is full of bugs. Sometimes when you score a goal, they show your side of the goal........ very disapointing.

    Some bugs are annoying (invisible subs), lack of manager and be a pro mode makes game lack depth. Controls are different but can be learned... online play is fun when controls are learned... I hope they improve next years version include what the PS2 has with no bugs... Then its a 9

    Hey it's not that bad of a game. I started playing it again and it's awesome. Not perfect though but still good!

    The game is ok. The graphics are good for a 2008 game, overall it's a good purchase. If you like soccer games, this is a definitely a good one to try.

    Pretty good FIFA game for PS2 unless you bought them every year in hopes seeing milestone improvements. Graphics were solid, famous players were nicely modeled, stadiums looked, good soundtrack, overall gameplay was decent with responsive controls. Goalkeeper AI was kinda crappy and leaving them to auto save was pretty much suicide.

    Jogo muito bom, como foi comparada com a geração que o antecedia, não foi visto com bons olhos, mais teve evolução pequena para o Fifa 07 de PS2, quando Fifa acertou a mão, a outro geração chegou, jogo muito bom é divertidíssimo, basta jogar uma partida para viciar

    Your standard Fifa game. Nothing more, nothing less.

    I see a lot of complaints about bugs, those bugs were in the games going back to 2006

    EA is always slow on working out the bugs.

    Probably the best game in the FIFA series. The AI can actually defend while the manual controls give the freedom to create scoring chances in many different ways. It is a shame the AI has so much trouble scoring. [Sept 2007]

    Pretty much the same as "FIFA 07" but tighter and more feature-packed than ever. A good effort. [Nov 2007, p.76]

    It's back-to-back successful seasons for FIFA while the Be A Pro mode is really top-notch. [Nov 2007, p.77]
