The ball is like metal and the shoes are like magnets, nearly impossible to take the ball from anyone who know how to keep it and every player not in possession feel like tanks. The matches themselves feel very "scripted" and I have never lost soo many 50/50 duals in my life. It is not acceptable to charge full retail for this, get ur head out of ur ass EA and listen to the fans and for gods sake Stop release unfinished games.. or we will give U the grand prize of "worst company in america"...4 the 3:e time.

    Fifa 15 is absolutely **** to say it out loud. The feeling of playing the game is completely lost. I have played fifa since 2006 and i have loved it since, but this is madness, how can a fifa game be so **** I really don't know. The feeling of controlling the player isn't even close to be there

    This is not a good game. I have played 102 seasons in the co-op season in FIFA 14 and this game has many flaws. The game has poor AI, it drags, it's full of bugs and it is almost unplayable online.
    Goalkeepers act like retards.

    A tip for EA is to start to focus on gameplay and stop focusing on the details.

    This game is without a doubt a step backward from FIFA 14 which itself had numerous problems.

    The list of problems is almost too long to entail, however I will cover some of them; overall this game is really bad.

    It's frankly laughable that they said they have "revolutionised" goalkeepers, some of the strange decisions and mistakes that "world class" keepers have made have blown my mind. The defenders in general are a joke, they stand around watching 94 pace players waltz through, they get shrugged off the ball by basically anybody who isnt 5 ft 1' and isn't made of paper.

    They watch balls through the air fly through from goalkeepers hands, generally pace and decision making of the defenders seems really strange and inconsistent, frankly FULL of RNG and bugs.

    Dribbling and so called "sweaty play" is totally overpowered and unrealistic, take any players with a bit of pace and dribbling and you can go pace 8 players from left back and smash it in top corner.

    "KSI" goals still work along with a new, even more horrifying, "zig zag" technique from the kick-off where a pacey player runs through all the defenders who are on their mobile phones or waving at fans or somthing, who knows? They literally (other than the one you are controlling) stand still and watch the player run through in the first seconds of the kick off and score a goal.

    Bugs and RNG in general play are really, really frequent. Players "floating" through balls, being ranomdly shoved off by suposedly thin air. Emotional intelligence literally seems to be nothing other than RNG / useless eye candy which decides to punish / reward you for some innane random tackle or decision.

    The referee's and also the foul decision system is without a doubt (played since FIFA 10) the most ridiuclous inconsistent and buggy pile of steaming, you know what, that I have ever seen. Pretty much every 10 seconds you are fowled and the referee doesn't even bat an eyelid. I have had no less than three players sent off in around 50 games for world class tackles, awarded straight reds for doing literally nothing wrong. On the flip side, you'll frequently find yourself in the box about to shoot, only to get fowled and to have the game laugh at your penalty cries.

    Really don't go buy this game, it's hugely dissapointing, unrewarding and frustrating to play and rammed full of bugs and inconsistent development.

    P.S: Another really horrible part to the game is the total Americanisation of everything. The typical "pin up players" behave like super heroes and have "really rad skill moves", they can just spam skill moves and seem to float through anybody ( you can just picture an american who knows largely nothing about 'soccer' going "awwww dude did you see that step over?!!!?!?!!?" ). There is unnessercary, and to be honest ghastly, music everywhere such as on the loading screen and at half time, this along with the score board and the scrolling team members at the bottom makes it feel like a baseball game, it's really uncomfortable to be greeted with. But hey, considering EA CANADA developed this disgrace to the FIFA series, there's not too many surprises there.

    Don't buy this, you'd have more fun and reward playing the lottery.

    This is not a football game anymore. The game is totally scripted. There's handicap if you're better than your opponents, every game is rigged (offline AND online).

The game is totally scripted. There's handicap if you're better than your opponents, every game is rigged (offline AND online). Basically, Fifa is turning into Mario Kart : "Everyone can win, especially if you're down 0-3 at the 85' minute". 5 minutes extra time every game, last minute goals from impossible angles, your defenders suddenly can't play football anymore. If you're winning too much, your team starts to choke, your pass % drops, your accuracy suddenly drops, and the opponent gets all the luck.

    They have turned fifa into a money machine.

    Basically, for the Ultimate Team mode, the point is to buy cards to get better players, but the more your players are good, the more handicap you get, and it gets more and more difficult to win. You will never be able to win 5 games in a row, unless you're a total prick or spend your whole life on it. The last game you need to win to be promoted will always be rigged. It's another Candy Crush-like system where you need to pay real money to advance quicker, and this needs to stop

    Another point : the whole strategy/chemistry/tactics is ruined by the fact that you can score easily by just running forward at kickoff. 90% of the online games goals are like this. Don't even try to stop their 62 overall rated attacker, he will dribble your entire defense.

    In Career mode, it's the case since fifa 2001, the weakest team in the league will always be the hardest to beat. Yes you have Messi but that Elche defender is just better, quicker and he can score from anywhere.

    EA continues to insult the players, and the fifa community is one of the worst you can find. There absolutely no pleasure to play this game, you just have to cross your fingers and hope that the script is in your favour, that's all. You'd better just play dice and see if you roll a 6, same fun.

    The only good points : the grapchis are better, and if you can't play fifa at all, then you'll have a bigger chance to win games.

    I loved FIFA 14, but this version is just horrible. Not because they didn't improve anything, but because the so-called improvements are causing gameplay issues. For example, the opponent keep scoring with ricochet balls, which is very unrealistic and annoying. Also, the game borders are cut-off because of a bug in the game.

    Sadly, this year's FIFA is horrible and I regret buying it.

    Too many dropped online matches, too many bad positions taken by AI, too many weird goals, too slow a response time, bad music, too much emphasis on player speed over true skill and passing, too much a resemblance of a 1990's arcade-style sports game than a true simulation of a soccer match. Really taking steps back in the gameplay for the sake of expanded game modes. Really poor.

Players with moderate pace can weave through defenders like Messi. Online Ultimate Team matches are invariably against people who run down the middle at your defense at full speed. God help you if your match is laggy, because your star players will suddenly lose the ball mid-dribble, and your defenders will fall over each other, which is only slightly less effective than their default AI. Many matches are laggy due to a poor matchmaking system. Even without lag, your players will miss passes from two meters away, fall down for no reason, and generally act stupid. Even when your players do what you want them to do, glitches will do the rest. Referees are still arbitrary, rewarding yellow cards for standing in the wrong place while letting play go on following slide tackles from behind on players in the box.

    Older FIFAs reached a point where they were starting to feel like actual soccer matches, but this just feels like an arcade soccer game aimed at impatient Red Bull-chugging middle schoolers. Match lobbies and unranked/non-season matches remain non-existent, and they even pulled the 11 v 11 practice arena for PS4/XBO.

    FIFA 15 could be an enjoyable game, but the same problems that have been present in the recent FIFA iterations are still there and have never been solved because EA just don't care about their customers as long as they are milking money out of it.

    Biggest problems are scripting, handicap and momentum. EA deny these exist, but they do. When the game decides you are to be penalised your players magically start moving in a sluggish manner, their reaction time gets much worse, they cannot control the ball anymore, they move slower and in the wrong directions lacking any precision. Basically this totally ruins the game as you don't win just by using your skill but it's a random process. Until EA fix this I will constantly rate this game as a 0 because it's just like cheating and I cannot understand why EA do it.

    Apart from that some of the ratings for players on Ultimate Team are just ridiculous and show how little the creators know about football. The web app is even more bugged and slow than last year. Some of the items you redeem from the EA catalogue never materialise or are broken and EA never fix this either (still waiting to get the extra trading slots I redeemed on day 1 for example).

    People will buy this game because apart from PES there is no real competition in this segment and because they love football, but year after year it's always a big let down as EA never address the main issue of the game showing they couldn't care less about their customers. No wonder they get voted year after year as the worst company when it comes to customer care.

    Thirdly, you have to get brutally hit in order to get a foul called on the other hand if you happen to push someone it's a direct foul.. (illogical)
    Fourthly too many weird graphical glitches

    FUT is still as bad as always.. you dominate the game for an hour with 14 shots 10 post hits and your opponent has 1 shot and 1 goal.. you know because if you don't hit the post at least 3 times per game you're not playing fifa.

So we know the fact that this games koncept builds on personal playing-kompetences, but why the heck am i going to play and try to catch even more kompentences, if the "EA machine" doesn't allow me to use them, it will simply make my players do a absolutely horrible work on the field (Even with the biggest world star players) It is so obvious sometimes that its almost looks kinda funny.
    I know that there are many people who still like this game, but i got a kind of feeling that it is most small children and noobs generally, people who isn't capable to see it and figure it out. I have been played Fifa every year since 1995, but i most face that i has comed to and end (for now) I would still recommend this game for children, but it isn't an adult game anymore unfortunaly :-/ I think EA have destroyed FIFA for the "good" fifa players who have played the game very much, and they really have to step up the upcomming years to bring back the desire. But i guess they wont, cause the money is still rolling in. In my personal opinion, i dont think that the FIFA game have proceded any kind of gameplay progress since Fifa 12, and the graphics haven't eather, even on PS4.

    Why is nobody saying anything about the awkward red cards. You get them even when you win the ball. You need an Italian team to be invisible, that camera man is made of wood and the camera.... I don't know...

    i play this game on PS4 and trust me its the glitchiest game I've ever played. passing,goalkeepers, shooting everything is broken . it is not worth the 70 bucks that you have to spend to get it. it's better to go spend this money on other games. EA f@cked us again!! they couldnt even copy their own game! fifa14 was better

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. O my god, whatever you do don't ever consider buying this game, the game has become so scipted so it doesn't even make sense anymore to try. And the more you play the more scripted it gets, it's like once you get addicted the AI gives the less experienced player so many advantages that it becomes impossible to win. The last game made me throw away the game for ever. I mean it from the bottom of my heart, don't but this piece of **** its the most scripted game I played in my life. Expand

    Probably the **** game and the **** company in the world. EA don't give a **** about the people who buy the game. EA recently released price ranges to FIFA 15 Ultimate team. they care so much about money and so little about security and their customers its disgusting. I DO NOT recommend this game to anyone who enjoys having a good time. Go **** you're self EA, I'm buying PES.

    Fifa use to be a great simulation game since 08 and now that's a big arcade game, even PES 2 was more realist. Even if the offline part was really good as usually, the online is a real disaster. Games look like everything except football. What a shame. But people who doesn't like football may enjoy this game.

I seem to only have this problem during 2 player. Sometimes I can be playing and kick other players butt and sometimes they kick mine regardless of how good the teams are. Most of the time the player behaviors are not relative to reality and good players become horrible in game and slow bad players become dominant and fast. Some players can run right over others and take the ball without hitting any buttons and others stop dead in their tracks when switching players or when being challenged. Not at all close to realistic. Expand

    Completely awful game. Apparently the most important skill you can ever have as a football player is the ability to run fast because that makes you a god in fifa15.

    What's the point of playing a game online when the game scripts the hell out of everything and makes your defenders move out of position so your opponent can score goals? It's a joke of a game made by clowns who know nothing

    FIFA 15 is just a danger to your nerves and to your state of mind.You will 100% be annoyed at how idiotic this game is. FIFA is far from a simulator. A game in which matches end 5-4, 5-5, 6-5, 8-6 every time online can be called anything but a simulator. You simply cannot defend in this game, no matter how hard you try.

FIFA is far from a simulator. A game in which matches end 5-4, 5-5, 6-5, 8-6 every time online can be called anything but a simulator. You simply cannot defend in this game, no matter how hard you try. Tactical defending was always retarded, but you can somehow still pull it off in previous FIFAs, Not anymore. Any player with a little bit of pace will be able to zig-zag through your defence and score because your defenders ARE NOT TACKLING the opponents. They are simply running away from the ball. I purposely watch replays to see why I concede and it amazes me to see my defenders NOT MARKING the opponents and simply running in other directions or just watching on the pitch.

    Apart from this, this game is heavily scripted just like other FIFAs before. Most through balls or lobbed through balls will make your defenders do like a jerking movement, slowing them at that exact time for the opposing striker to catch the ball and get through on goal. 90th and 45th minutes are again scripted. If you are winning by, let's say, 3-1 in 90th minute, be prepared to concede 2 goals because the match will always get 5 minutes extra time and because the player you have simply dominated whole match suddenly turnes into a god and scores a couple of goals one after another.

    Another stupid thing about this game is the kick-off goal. Players online are now just running straight from kick-off, zig-zag through your defense and you can hardly defend. I have scored and conceded a lot of goals like this. Whoever implemented this into the game clearly has no idea about football, and is probably living in Canada watching hockey or rugby or some stupid sport but clearly not football.
    You can never do this in real life, totally unrealistic.

    I would like to add that the game feels too fast, passing are travelling at light speed, sometimes you can barely see where the ball is. This clearly shows how arcady this game has become, you are basically playing call of duty now.

    In conclusion, I would not recommend this game to anyone, unless you love getting angry and you are a masochist. For me it landed straight in the thrash bin. Oh, and don't even think about PES 2015, tried it and it is just as crappy as FIFA.

I think its an innovation to give the player the feeling to totally control one player, but its freaking hard to control 11 player..so i think they should have think about it. 2nd one is to change from Legacy defending to Tactical defending which is the newest way to defend.'' legacy defending is the way you always defend in a fifa in past till to fifa 12. The Tactical defening system his the most useless thing they had introduce in the game, because it is very very hard to defend properly, remember its very hard to control the ball now think you have to control all your defenders at a time. So I really think they had just go a way too far for me, I saw on a forum that many users has already gone to return the game because they are not able to use legacy defending online, which make the game very very hard even for someone it is good at it. So don;t lose your time to play a game which look more like a mission game than a sport game. better go on PES its a way better trust me Expand

    Just another year of typical FIFA. It's funny how with all the money in the world, they just never polish the game properly. Keepers are better in some respects but in others they are worse, when they use to be strong in certain scenarios that is now their weakness. Good job EA.
    The defending AI is absolutely retarded. They play as though they have never played football in the back line

    The defending AI is absolutely retarded. They play as though they have never played football in the back line before. A true misrepresentation of their true counterparts. So sad that every year the same problems are apparent. So many cheaters buying coins on UT and pace whoring, every game you play the same pacey players with a direct skill less approach to football it is letting the beautiful game down.
    This game deserves a zero because EA never listen and never fix the same problems that have always been there. It's shame because every year i hold to hope that maybe EA will get it right, they do and they never will with regards to their approach to football.
    Been with FIFA since FIFA 06. I will not let the cycle continue and am now embracing the beautiful game that is PES. They understand football.

While the animations and physics have improved drastically this year as every year EA can't shake off the desire to simplify and dumb down the game to the extent that speed passing and silly tricks are promoted over teamwork and tactics. Pro clubs is especially rife with the 'win at all costs' mobs who seek to use exploits, speed passing and cheap gameplay tricks to win instead of working to a game plan.

    Unfortunately Pro Evolution Soccer, which has historically been the football game for the genuine football fan is still lagging behind. Hopefully one day it'll catch up, but for now we can just wish for the day when beauty will return to the beautiful game.

The ball boys, the bench view, the flag celebration, the chants, the cheers, the new camera angles, the ability for players to last longer than game in regards to their stamina, all phenomenal additions.

    There is a problem, however. Gamers buy games to (predominantly) play and then enjoy the graphics. The primary reason we enjoy a game is the gameplay. The reason I enjoy The Last of Us so much, is because the gameplay is superb, the graphics is the extra part that adds to the game. Fifa 15 lacks greatly in gameplay. It is flawed. When attacking, the opposition destroys your players and there is no offence committed. When the shoe is on the other foot, and you are defending the players run through you like you aren't even there. When contact is made with the player a penalty is given. It destroys the game, that whenever you try and play, you automatically lose.

    You either lose because you can't tackle, and the players run straight through, or you tackle the player and a penalty is given.

    If you're thinking of buying the game, then don't. It's a waste of time and money. Please fifa, sort this rubbish excuse of a legendary game out.

No Tiki taka gameplay ,No possession, .i feel like me and my opponent just do counter attacks.

    The bad.......it does seem like Fifa is designed for people who don't actually know how to play football, many games you will be dominating an opponent playing fantastic football coming so close to scoring only for the other team to try a through ball from the half way line that finds an attacker standing there on his own in yards of space.

    Pace is insainly overpowered so be prepared have some trouble stopping any attacker who just sprints at you with 83+ pace. On the other side you will find that your oppositions defenders will get an injection of pace on times as you can watch the oppositions 65 pace defenders catch up with hazard/robben/reus with ease.

    Everyone likes to moan about loosing in Fifa and say its 'scripted', personally i don't think its true but its hard to argue when you win division 1 with only 1 draw and 1 loss then get beat 4/5 games in a row next season by conceding goals in unavoidable ways, lucky rebounding/gk not moving/loosing 50/50 balls every time/ through balls from the half way line, basically the computer gifting your opponent goals.

    Oh and the defensive ai is a load of crap so get used to trying to position every defender continuously every time you have to defend other wise they will just stand and watch as attackers run past them.

    When its an even game win or loose Fifa can be awesome its a shame it hardly ever happens

    This game is a disgrace to soccer and video games. You get players acting on their own and keepers missing the easiest shots and if your opponent has a fast player it's game over for you. The game is really slow, compared to FIFA 13 for example, and completely unrealistic. Total waste of money.

I decided to give it a 4/10 for the few games that actually take place properly, hence the 4 points. But for the rest of the game, I won't hesitate to say that it's basically **** EA's Fifa franchise is in a spiraling downfall that will end with it losing it's first spot as the best and our favorite "realistic" football simulator. I'll give one simple example out of many. Obviously this took place on ultimate team, where losing seems to depend more on how much the game likes you rather than your skill level. In one of the brilliantly well put together online cups, I had played three times the same cup. The first two cup runs I lost after conceding 3 to 4 goals in the last 20 game minutes in the semi-finals (well made scripting) and in the third run, my game crashed after i had won and simply got a DNF. As I said, this game is poor on way to many aspects to be able to call itself good anymore. i do not advise anyone who wants to try this game to actually waste their money, as I have, on this game.

    EA Sports has been following Activision COD footsteps of business strategy in bringing out its yearly released gaming franchise by putting in very few changes every year.That's not acceptable for charging us football gamers $60 for small changes that should have been included as DLCs.

    I actually had a little kind of hope that EA would make the game without scripting this year, but of course it didn't happen. Fifa 15 and especially ultimate team, is 110% scriptet and horrible to play. The same sad story like last year. The EA "Machine" decides if you are going to win, loose or draw, in every single match you play and its like not even playing the game yourself at mostI actually had a little kind of hope that EA would make the game without scripting this year, but of course it didn't happen.

So we know the fact that this games koncept builds on personal playing-kompetences, but why the heck am i going to play and try to catch even more kompentences, if the "EA machine" doesn't allow me to use them, it will simply make my players do a absolutely horrible work on the field (Even with the biggest world star players) It is so obvious sometimes that its almost looks kinda funny.
    I know that there are many people who still like this game, but i got a kind of feeling that it is most small children and noobs generally, people who isn't capable to see it and figure it out. I have been played Fifa every year since 1995, but i most face that i has comed to and end (for now) I would still recommend this game for children, but it isn't an adult game anymore unfortunaly :-/ I think EA have destroyed FIFA for the "good" fifa players who have played the game very much, and they really have to step up the upcomming years to bring back the desire. But i guess they wont, cause the money is still rolling in. In my personal opinion, i dont think that the FIFA game have proceded any kind of gameplay progress since Fifa 12, and the graphics haven't eather, even on PS4. I really hope that 2k (who did a really good job in NBA 14) will take over Fifa or at least make a better football game.

    To be honest, the demo worked nicely and playing the AI felt like a bit of an upgrade.

    Now I bought the damn thing and played 2 vs 2 on PS4 and nothing works. Stats are **** up, the keepers are more stupid than ever, the AI seems more random than ever and even with all the small improvements - this is the year PES will get another shot at it.

    It seems EA is trying to piss off its customers

    Decided to give this game the time to properly review it. Ultimate teams is very addictive again and the game feels improved from Fifa 14 with the graphics a highlight but on most of the points that count it is a failure.

Ultimate teams is very addictive again and the game feels improved from Fifa 14 with the graphics a highlight but on most of the points that count it is a failure. I purchase Fifa mainly to play online and at first I got smashed by more experienced players which is understandable as I learnt the game mechanics. Once I began to get a feel for the game and got a few wins under my belt. As I got to playing against more skilled players I started to notice the flaws in the game as those games are generally tight.

    The major downsides of the game are:

    AI seems to have gone further backwards, a loose ball around the opposition box will be ignored by your players who in addition never make intelligent runs. Defenders will not attack loose balls either when the opponent is counter attacking, this usually results in a easy run in for opposition attackers as your defense decides to watch the game rather than be involved.

    The gameplay is extremely slow with players looking very labored at times, the physics are shocking at time's with balls bouncing off players and some players just seem unable to control the ball without taking 4 touches.

    The goalkeepers have been improved but at time's will make amazing saves and at other time's let in ridiculous near post shots that would be saved 99% of the time in real life soccer.

    The Ref's have gone backwards as well, I have seen players be completely taken out with no foul, red cards being handed out for tackles around the box for no obvious reason and general fouls having very little consistency.

    Overall I am very disappointed with the game and will be looking at PES 2015, if it has improved gameplay then I will be switching brands and trading Fifa unless a very expansive patch is released very soon. Fifa has not done enough in terms of fixing the simple mechanics of the game to make it enjoyable. As someone who is happy to buy a new soccer game every year mostly for the online play, it has become extremely frustrating and no longer enjoyable.

    If I was rating this as a newly developed game rather than something that has been built upon for a few years now then I'd probably give it a 6 but as the game has gone backwards in every way that really counts I have decided on a 3 rating.

    NEGATIVES. If you want an arcade style game of football and don't care about realism get this. For everybody else that wants as close to the real game as possible it's a big letdown. A key area of plenty of concern is defending, as in they are stupidly unresponsive and dumb. Centre backs often swap over, this happens now and then in real life, but not this often, no sense of a unit inNEGATIVES.

A key area of plenty of concern is defending, as in they are stupidly unresponsive and dumb. Centre backs often swap over, this happens now and then in real life, but not this often, no sense of a unit in tandem at all.They get dragged all over the place, defend too high,have the turning circle of Rio Ferdinand these days. Sometimes this all happens on purpose because of the scripting, ( where the computer basically cheats to either help create you a goal or cause one against you) Even Manchester United are defending better than this. As for the attacking play, where do i start, virtually every player in the game has been blessed with super speed, there doesn't really need to be a pass button. i played online (same offline) and i basically just took the piss out of my opponent by running right through the whole team. I had Darren Fletcher on the ball, i just started running, WITH DARREN FLETCHER!, Offline its the same, yes you do have sliders to adjust speed offline but i turned it right down to zero and it is still the same. Even turning the game to SLOW does nothing to change it. Playing against the CPU is where it becomes the most shocking, PES this year has pissed all over fifa in this aspect. In PES the CPU will try to pass the ball, and players have realistic speed. You know like real football. Fifa bypasses it totally this year, it just runs, strikers run into nowhere then suddenly turn and blast into such speed there is no point in defending. Defenders cant turn, and wont have a chance of catching ANYBODY. Doesn't matter who it is, if they are quick players or not. A patch could sort out so much, but don't hold your breath with EA.

    POSITIVES. Presentation this year has taken a step up, pitches look almost as good as the real thing. Still no realtime day into night transition but lighting has been altered at least. ALL 20 premier league stadium's are present and (largely) correct. Along with official premier league in game branding for team sheets, referees,and so on. If you are a fan of other leagues you will hope for this treatment in future version. Over 200 new player likenesses, however some don't look as good as they could be. And the promise of promoted teams faces added has yet to happen. SOME modes that were removed last year have returned, custom tournaments, tournaments for single player. Team tactics have an interesting difference this year, again how much of an impact it actually makes is the problem. Options such as the striker to drift out wide, play as a target man, the winger to cut inside, come short for the ball, or just stay up the pitch are welcome, defensively setting the full backs to always overlap, central midfielder to cut passing lanes and stay back or go forward. Hints of the kind of game that could be if everything was knitted together. But again this year it's backwards, and more than just a step.There is the basis of a great game there, but strange development decisions are undermining it.

    In short there is no way this game should get more than 5/10, because a footy sim it isn't! The scripts determine who is going to win, which is basically the underdog, so expect to whip Barcelona 3-0 every frigging time but struggle against Yeovil town because in EAs infinite wisdom, it's good to manufacture a challenge by boosting poor teams stats while dumbing down your teams AI, so you can't defend. Defending is awful anyway, there's just no way to overcome the AIs psychic or zero reflex time ability to turn on a dime and dribble past you. I've tried contain, high pressure and second player contain but it counts for naught because the controls stop responding to your input when the scripting kicks in (ie when the algorithms want the CPU to score). And I really mean stop responding, not just delayed. Corners conceded around the 45 or 90 minute mark, well, don't expect your 7 foot power heading CB to do anything except move out of the way to allow the 5 foot striker to head into the corner. And the goalies? My goodness, they range from being superhuman to assisting bystanders, actually moving out of the way of the ball if the AI wants a goal!

    In short this game is a mess, lots of mini scripts within a 90 minute game leave you either feeling robbed or the game gave it to you. No point building up an 80+ rated team in career mode because stats are irrelevant thanks to all the scripting going on. There's also no need for a midfield as the most effective way to score sadly is the hoof to a fast player method. So pack your defence with 6 players and buy 4 fast strikers, and as for the keeper, well it don't matter. Regardless of who you buy, there's no discernible difference in ability between a 50 rated melon and a 85 rated super star. The same types of shots will be goals or not irrespective of Keeper ability.

    Since Ultimate Team is the most well-known and most advertised game mode for FIFA 15, you think it would be good right? WRONG!

Before you kick-off on Ultimate Team, or any online game mode on FIFA 15 for that matter, the game has already decided who has won. There is pretty much no realism in the game either, 60 mile per hour shots will be easily saved but 2 mile per hour shots will easily go in. The keepers are constantly beaten at near-post and they parry the ball out for rebounds 9 times out of ten. You may think career mode will save the game. Wrong again. Career mode is complete garbage too, everything below world-class difficulty is too easy and when it's on world-class, you watch the opposing team, no matter who it is, pass it around like FC Barcelona.

    The only positive about the game is the presentation on career mode, the BPL aesthetics are outstanding, the only reason this piece of sh*t game isn't getting a 0.

    To summarise, the game is completely awful and it decides when you'll win or lose. It will most likely be a horrific experience. Save yourself some cash and don't buy this disgusting mockery of a game.
