    "FIFA 2003" is fully licensed and pretty to look at, but WTS has it beat in every other category.

    While EA continues to tinker with its gameplay, I think footie fans will enjoy World Tour's more traditional and consistent controls. [Feb 2003, p.98]

    A challenging game with a lot of play options and an immense number of teams. Don't expect NHL-like scoring, though.

    If they can continue this pattern we just might have the best soccer game next year.

    The controls are fast and tight and there are enough play modes to keep you coming back to the pitch for quite some time. [Feb 2003, p.30]

    A solid game that will appeal more to those who play multiplayer games. Although the single player modes aren’t bad, the simple gameplay won’t be able to compete with other soccer games on the market.

    Better than last year's game with new modes and some new controls but it's a long way from being the definitive version of the sport.

    Unparalleled depth and excellent gameplay. A huge improvement on WTS2002 and miles ahead of the FIFA line.

    Great gameplay and depth. Highly replayable with enough modes to keep you busy for months. Player attributes actually mean something. The Great gameplay and depth.

The only drawbacks are a poorly designed free kick system and sub-par sound effects.… Expand

    Way better than FIFA and Winning Eleven, hands down. I returned those two the next day while I'm still playing WTS2003 non-stop. It Way better than FIFA and Winning Eleven, hands down. I returned those two the next day while I'm still playing WTS2003 non-stop. It would be a 10 if the referee wasn't so stupid as to send out a player for a dumb unintentional handball in the middle of the field and other minor details. The best soccer game out there, period.… Expand
