    It's funny how many of the reviewers seem to exist only to give FIFA low score and PES a high one Lol.
    FIFA 16 is a very solid game, probably the best football game ever made. The demo felt a bit sluggish, but the actual game is much better. For anyone looking for a real football experience, FIFA 16 is the way to go.

    I played FIFA games throughout my whole life and I like that EA are improving the graphics to compete with games like NBA2K and even PES. I like that they are introducing new game modes like FUT Draft that keeps you in the game, but the things that are still a massive issue in the FIFA franchise and that people are still pissed off about it are the packs which are still terrible.

FIFA Points is still expensive and even with the EA Access discounts that they give you they are still expensive and is not worth spending.… Expand

    The game looks the same. They've fixed lob through balls, but now nearly each contact (even without pressing the tackle button) in the penalty box ends as a penalty. Pathetic EA... 2 games 6 penalties in a row and nearly 1 penalty per game overall. Nothing like a real match.

    WHAT HAPPENED TO THIS GAME? Until FIFA 14 we're having evolution and very good games, but in FIFA 15 EA just ruined the game, I feel like EA droped the production of the FIFA series in the hands of a bunch of monkeys. FIFA 15 and FIFA 16 are a complete joke, total **** cant believe this game became so so so pathetic and not fun.

    RIP FIFA

    I like the changes they made. You CAN play very up-tempo if you got used to it. You don't even need a 5-star squad to play fluently. Though you will need some practice to do so... Is it worth 60 euro? Not every year for sure.

    Very good game so far. Of course it is harder to play than the 15 edition, but once you discover the best way to play it is a very good and entertaining game. The best feature is the return of most brazilian teams, especially cruzeiro, witch unfortunately doesn´t have his goalkeeper fábio

And now when I thought that EA couldn't get any worse, here comes FIFA 16 to prove I'm wrong.
    If I had to sum it up in one word, it would be "senseless". depending on the game, the same team could be playing like a 5 star or a half star. that will depend on the mood of EA. eather you make extreme wonderful passes or you miss the most simple passes (you point it to the player and the balls simply goes to the opponent that is in a completely different direction).
    Graphic wise, the game is inferior then the competition, but in my point of view, graphics is the least of my concerns, what relay matters to me is the gameplay. They are giving all the focus to new dribbling skills and forgetting the main core of the game. The gameplay is awful. They are turning this into a childish game where running with the ball is safer then passing.
    Regarding the women's teams, despite not using it, I think it was a good ideia to bring girls into the clientele, but offering this type of game, EA will loose the clients that has been with them for years. I for example, had my first FIFA in 98, moved to Winning Eleven/PES until 2008, where I finally thought that EA focused on the gameplay, and have been buying in the first week of release until then. FIFA 2017 I will only buy after I see the critics of the users. I hope that EA understands that the path they are taking will give space for other Football/Soccer games to gain market.
    So, for those reasons, my Review score will be 1 out of 10. I do not recommend the purchase of this game.    … Expand

    I actually had lots of fun with Fifa 16. It's gameplay is very similar to Fifa 15, but it has some new features like FUT draft, Trainer mode, Women's teams and No touch dribbling. Fifa 16 isn't better than many other soccer games, but it's still pretty fun to play. Yes, the passing need some work, but when you keep on playing it, you won't have a hard time with the passing. It worked for me.

    Fifa 16 is basically a penalty simulator. I cannot get through most games without giving away 1 or 2 penalties because of players just dropping on the ground by touching a defender. switching players has also been slightly altered making a stupid at times. Pressing r1 for teammate contain has become basically useless as they do not tackle the attacker but just stand right in front of him.Fifa 16 is basically a penalty simulator.

    The negative reviews on this game must be from all the players who used to just use Messi/Ronaldo and hold the sprint button down. I enjoy the gameplay of this iteration of Fifa much more than the prior several years because if forces you to actually plan your attacks and then execute.

    I will try to explain my opinion but my English is poor :)

    I'm Fifa fan for many years. Casual player to start, I buy now Fifa every year since 2008 ! I am very disappointed with Fifa 16 :( It's not longer possible to play in the verticality of the field. As soon as you make a long pass, it's ALWAYS intercepted by a defender. It's impossible to make more than 3 following passes    I will try to explain my opinion but my English is poor :)

    I'm Fifa fan for many years.
    Casual player to start, I buy now Fifa every year since 2008 !
    I am very disappointed with Fifa 16 :(

    It's not longer possible to play in the verticality of the field.
    As soon as you make a long pass, it's ALWAYS intercepted by a defender.
    It's impossible to make more than 3 following passes without the ball is intercepted.

    Thus, players like Cristiano Ronaldo or Lionel Messi are no longer able to notice the presence of a defender on his back and anticipate to receive the ball in the feet ... a defender goes ahead and cuts the ball trajectory EVERY TIME !

    The referee blows anything.
    This causes a lot of penalty that should not.

    The referee does not allow the advantages and breaks the relaunch of the ball.
    If there is a small fault committed, he have to leave the advantage (in the real football).
    But NO !!!! He whistles and it breaks the game !!!
    The decisions of the referee are really strange and illogical !!!

    However, when the last defender commits a hard foul on the striker who goes alone to the goal, the referee do not give the red card ... and sometimes it does not whistle ! It's to become crazy !!!!

    The game speed was reduced, I find that very void and dull.

    Sometimes, the stats of the players seem not to be considered.
    Indeed, you go through on goal with Lionel Messi, you are 15 meters ahead, ... the defender back on you (bronze defender with a rating of 60 !!!!) and he takes the ball :/

    For the gameplay :
    Sometimes I slightly press triangle to make a pass in the stride of another player ==> the ball is sent to 10 Km ...
    Sometimes I press hard on the triangle button to make a long beautifull pass ==> the ball is sent to 10cm ...
    It's the same with the pass button (X) and the shoot button (O)
    I don't understand the mechanic of the game. It looks like it is random

    I played 17 years in football, I watch football regularly on TV, I know the rules, ... but I think that Fifa deviates more and more from reality (gameplay, rules, ...).

    A graphic point of view : it is shamefull that some players from big teams are not better modeled !!!
    Loot the players like "Dries Mertens" from NAPOLI or "Nainggolan" from AS ROMA, ... compare with their true face and you'll understand :(

    I already thought to sell the game.

    My colleague put his fist in the PS4 console because the game has pissed.

    I hope my English is understandable.    … Expand

    Ugh where should I start? Ive been playing FIFA Football games from 2002 and I can boast being a pro player for this game playing on legendary without a hassle. I play mostly Offline on Career Mode cause Im not into EA's FUT BS and can i say, playing it after a while gets really frustrating and boring playing different tier teams that has the same kind of footballing style.

    I've had played low tier teams to the top tier and they all play the same possession football , dominating possession by at least 60% to 70% all the time hardly even getting a shot at goal luckily even getting any, and they always seem to frustrate me with this as it makes the game boring for a lil minute game chasing the ball around the pitch for the entire game! And they ALWAYS frustrate me with the LB To RB long ball passes cross the pitch. FACEPALM , the game just lacks diversity.

    Referee making horrendous calls for fouls ranging from FKs to PKs. The referees Inability to call an advantage after a foul is just horrible, you'll be 1 on 1 with the GK after dribbling past the last defender and the foul is then called! You have scored the game winner, a spectacular goal ! Only to know its called back for a foul against you .Very late offside calls, not for goals scored but deeper in the field. Referees also makes stupid offside calls that is redundant as you have not interfered with the play or haven't even touched the ball! And STILL no calls for back passing to the GK ; and don't let me get on to the scripting part!

    The AI always seem to have an advantage over you in every way playing on World Class or Legendary, its as if attributes doesn't matter anymore, every player plays the same. A low rated CB will play like Sergio Ramos as they will out strength you, outpace you and at least 95% of the time they never miss a tackle, no matter how agile your player is they are agile just as you do. A low rated CM will play like a hybrid, a mix of CB, CDM and Xavi. They hardly miss interceptions , they know your every move everywhere you go! They have a high passing rate as well completing at least 90% of their passes. They have made significant changes to the GKs saving abilities, but, they took it just too far, too good being very unrealistic. The GKs are super humans as they make impossible diving catching saves with their elastic arms catching majority of your crosses and corners no matter the power. Most matches I've played GK tend to make 10-18 saves in a match despite even turning down GK ability sliders to 35.

    Another Fifa series and they still haven't made major changes to Career Mode to let it be intriguing and makes you feel part of the game of being a Manager, there is no individual reward system really to let you make history just like the Football Manager Games where that you have a Fifa Ballon D Or or PFA Player a the year,squad of the year, best youngster, U 17, U 20 World Cups etc if you play the Football Manager series you'll understand more. But otherwise from that

    Literally this game is 'Stress', so if you are stress dont think to play this game as it will get worse.    … Expand

The game looks so much like real football that i was astounded at watching a champions league game and notice the game flowed very much like fifa 16. The AI is more intelligent than ever. Investing in a goalkeeper is actually worth it in career this year as is players you would never bother to try out. All because speed and acceleration have lost a lot of value. It makes the game as a whole a joy to play. I love the fact that this game encourages me to explore the many countries and leagues for hidden gems. The training aspect of this game makes it similar to an rpg where you work on certain attributes and increase their usefulness. Instead of using the same old 14 players on my team i focus a lot more on the lesser know players and it is great. This year players who are playing for their country actually leave and make you have to scramble for replacements on your team. It was a much needed feature. The commentating this year is superb and am greatful for the detail they capture on and off the pitch. I am actually playing all the modes as much as the next due to their polish this year even though i have a soft spot for manager mode. I cannot express how satisfied i am with this years fifa and am glad when a speedster transfers to Pes because that game is not what i want in a game or teammates. Fifa 16 is the best simulator game on ps4 if you are looking for realism and awarding moments like the real life game ,don't listen to the naysers and pick this gem up.

    - Ultimate Team and the draft is a cool consept that I have spent several hundreds of dollars on over the past years.
    - Playing coop on the same machine online versus others in same errand is back. Great work.

    So to the minus side of the game:

    - The referee is ruined. If you try to pass the keeper with the right stick and get tripped you'll never get a penalty. Never. If you slide in for a perfect tackle in the box the ref will blow his whistle for a penalty 2 out of 3 times.
    - Changing players. If you are defending the player you get while defending is based on luck. While defending a counter attack I've got the CM as often as the CB even if the CM is farther away and far behind the player with the ball.
    - "Play beautiful" is the slogan of this years FIFA. Boy was they wrong. I like to play a possession style football and I usually dominate the matches I play with around 60% possession. That have taken me to second division in FUT. Meeting the "high pressure"-gang I realize I will never go any further. It's a huge exploit, like the speed whoring and high trough-balls was in '15 and '14. This alone makes this game unplayable online.
    - Catch up. If you win or not is not stricktly down to how well you play. I have won the cheapest victories and lost games where I was totally dominating. I know that's how football works some times, but not as often as this. During a FUT season I feel like 7 of the 10 games I play is decided in beforehand.

    Playing with an average team (75 rating) the passing is horrible. Both short passing, through balls etc.
    If you are not Messi, than the CPU will decide where you place the ball. For example a short ball to the left side can go hard to the center of the pitch. A subtly lob through ball will go all the way to the keeper and so on...
    It's just completely random. Manual passing might be an outcome, but if that's how the game is meant to be played, than put it as default setting.
    And the player runs are so so dumb. Please stop making runs for me, I have a button for making runs. Let me decide it, because it fails the way it's implemented now.
    Also with the keepers that rush out, team defenders that kick the ball away when I have the situation under control... why!!?
    If I want the keeper to rush out I'll press the button for this action.

    Launch Fifa 12/13 and you suddenly feel in control again. You decide what happends on the pitch and not EA.

    And then there is the AI...

They have also downgraded pace too much yes it was too over powered in FIFA 15 but now since they've downgraded it so much even the slowest of players can run at the same speed of Ronaldo etc. In my opinion they need to go back to the pre-patch at the start of FIFA 15. It was one of the best FIFA's they released, control, dribbling, passing and defending was all great, except the keepers. From playing the game since release it was the wrong decision to buy it. That's why i shall wait for the update and if it makes the game even worse i shall be changing to the rival football game PES, Which i have heard is the No1 football game of the year this year.

    The game itself is **** the mechanics are the same as the previous, and just like FIFA 15 the game is scripted beyond level. You can concede a penalty without even controlling your defender and get a red card without even touching the player. So I advice you if you are getting this game for you kids on Christmas, well don't because it's the most infuriating frustrating game ever and watch your credit cards and be sure not to link anything in your console because your child can easily spend over $2000 without knowing it.    … Expand

    Worst FIFA ever. Pass assistance is useless and dumb. AI doesn't know how to defend. Very bad gameplay. Don't buy the game at full price. On Legendary level the opponent's AI is extremely smart because they know what you're doing on your controller, while your team's AI are really stupid so it's like one player vs legendary AI team.

    Usually I try to change the formation which is a lot of work for me and the scripting reduce a bit. It does not work all the time and when that happens I just stop playing wishing they forgot my winning streak.

    You know you are scripted when your passes to your winger will go over the line just when your player about to get it. When you passing is like the pitch is full of water ad the ball is hardly moving. When your trough balls end up at their goal keeper or fantastic ball but to the offside player. And since when a winger dribble across the pitch just to make a pass to a full back who is in my own half when the striker is in the clear?

    Conclusion, FIFA is bad for experienced players. It was good the first week of release to con people into thinking the scripting is over.    … Expand

There isn't a great deal of difference in terms of gameplay; besides the fact there is a significant change in the momentum and speed of the game; which for one, I believe has improved as it has levelled the playing field to some extent; which is probably why some people dislike it. "Pace" is no longer the only factor which has been the case for previous FIFA's, but there's a more physcial and passing element to the game which players will have to adapt and get used to. FIFA is an easy game to hate, which is why it receives so much, but it isn't as bad as the majority of 12 year old's claim it to be. I believe players need to see the big picture rather than just splurging a negative review without learning how to play the game properly.… Expand

    - I didn't ONCE got a advantage when an opponent made a foul. Even if the ball passes on to a team mate standing in a perfect scoring spot, the referee will still call the free-kick and stops the play. He's very happy to hand out penalties as well. Just retarded like the rest of the players in the way they behave.

    - When defending and calling for an extra player using R1, nothing happens. At least not defending wise. But you will see players making strange runs instead, pretty much destroying the organization of your defence while making sure he cant pass the ball backwards even though his about to shoot on goal. So use R1 with care or just not at all. It might be related to all the scripting, even though EA claims not to be using any. But it FEELS that you control 20%, rest is pre-made and so god damm annoying.

Anything deemed 'over powered' on online play last year have now been made useless, such as pace and over the top through balls. Simple things such as trying to select the right player becomes controller breakingly annoying, the game auto switching you even when you have it on manual, and not allowing you to control the player on the end of your cross.

    The game is incredibly slow paced, weighed down by the sluggish passing. The non-existent opponent 'AI' means you are playing against the same team every time. Trying to add useless features such as 'no touch dribbling' has further bogged down the already convoluted control system, with one button providing 3 or 4 functions before adding on trigger button toggles.

    The addition of scripting for the AI to go into some kind of Fergie Time mode at the end of each half and usually scoring from a corner of free kick is incredibly frustrating especially if you have just controlled the game for the other 80 minutes.

    Every time EA try to add realism they just make it less so, and less fun to play, players take 4 or 5 touches to turn, cant make simple 5 yard passes, the game literally stops you playing certain passes, its so annoying when you want to pass to feet and it passes it like a through ball. The game over all is just incredibly frustrating.

    The improved defense is a positive, however, with the errand passing and lack of flow this game is anything but beautiful. Get PES this year. Play both games and you'll see the difference in gameplay.    … Expand

    Good football game but really lacks improvement across the board apart from graphical and the roster update. Too much focus put on putting women in the game, a mode I doubt will get user's too interested. With PES 2016 kicking ass, I see people migrating across to that game more this year. Lucky FIFA has the licence advantage.

    The revamped passing system falls short unfortunately, though the general direction they have attempted to go with it is a positive, and with a little work could become a key factor should EA choose to persist with the current game engine.
    On the plus side the keepers seem to be more reliable and less prone to unnecessary theatrics, but still there's work to be done in this department, just not as much as in last years offering.

    On the whole FIFA seems to be in limbo with no real direction, and in all truth a solid 5 years behind where it should be at this point, no amount of buzz words or tag lines can reignite the passion to play this painfully outdated franchise, EA unfortunately choose exploit an extremely loyal fan base, which is a real shame, considering they have all the resources and tools to make something exceptional.    … Expand

    Passing is more manual now, which is a good idea implemented poorly. Retarded recieving player's AI which refuses to move an inch towards the ball, makes frustrating intercepts. He just watches the opposing player take the ball while waiting for the ball.
    Gameplay in general is as infuriating as it was last year since it is the same game. That feeling when you have done EVERYTHING right when defending, yet somehow conceded an impossible/lucky/retarded goal with a header/retarded AI/goalkeeper will make you want to break the controller.
    Addition of FUT draft was a great idea but EA's famous greed sabotaged it yet again. There is no way to win back your entry fee even if you never lose. It is just another way of forcing you to buy a card pack only for a cheaper price. Since buying card packs are essentially paying for absolutely nothing, FUT draft's reward system is only good for greedy company.
    In conclusion, paying game's full price every year, just for EA to milk our money with same in game transactions is just retarded and I hate myself for it.    … Expand

It has been clear for few years now, that the actual stats of the player do not really determine how he is going to play on the field. Now, however, the chemistry of the team doesn't seem to matter either.

    Passing is so broken. Everytime you pass it feels like a roll of a dice. Power of the pass and stats of the player have nothing to do with the outcome. The movement of the players, on and off the ball is completely ridiculous. Runs do not make any sense, and it often feels like no team mate is trying to help you out. Possession, due to the passing and the movement is a utopic idea. The lock passing for the player in offside position still remains to be fixed. The gameplay itself is so broken it is so far beyond not fun. I honestly do not believe that anyone playing this game is having or will have any fun with it.

    Please, do not buy this game if you think:

    that, the demo was okay, because the final version is a lot worse

    if you think the UT is fixed,

    if you think the gameplay is fixed,

    if you are trying to have a good time.

    Also, look at the positive user reviews on this page. Same as last year, they sound way too much like paid reviews or something.

    BUT!! The gameplay sucks big time!! So clumsy, ugly, unflowing and boring. It seems to me, that EA tried to make a "build up" kind of a gameplay like PES have, but the task is far from done. The matches are not beautiful and entertaining like PES 15 - 16 is, its nothing like like when it comes to the gameplay. It's really a shame, cause most of the other things in the game are pretty good. Things like co-op online seasons, FUT, PRO and more. I'll guess EA still have time to patch this gameplay problem, but when you are going from playing PES 15 to this, you just want to throw it away and buy PES 16 instead. The only bad thing about PES 16 is that there is no co-op online matches and the failure of license. But that being said, PES 16's gameplay is waaaaaay better than Fifa 16's. It's very entertaining, beautiful and challenging at the same time.

    The sad thing is, that the gameplay seemed alot better on the demo. I really dont get how EA have patched this game to the worse.

    For you that is unsure wich game you gonna buy, this is my suggestion:
    If you want it for the mods like FUT and the social part, and you don't care much about the gameplay, FIFA 16 is for you.
    If you want a game that is specialized in gameplay, and you don't care about the lack of co-op online, and lacks of license of a couple of teams then PES 16 is definatly for you.

    The biggest problem by some way, however, is that Pro Evolution Soccer 2016 has came from out of nowhere, shrugged off the habit of being woeful every year and is comfortably the better actual football game of the two. While FIFA does have the nice bells and whistles if licencing and stadia etc., it really does get its' arse handed to it on a plate by PES in terms of actual gameplay - and gameplay is always king with sporting titles.

    That said, FIFA Ultimate Team is far, far superior to PES's MyClub, so if that's the mode for you, you'll be best served sticking with FIFA - but be aware you'll be spending money on a feature that is built on gameplay that isn't as good as what you could be enjoying elsewhere.

    It's impossible to review FIFA without mentioning PES, and vice versa, and the ultimate point of a review is to say which is the better game - and this year, without question, it's is PES. FIFA has a lot to do to regain the crown next year.    … Expand

    Gameplay wise this game literally sucks the only good thing is the slow paced gameplay and the goalies are smarter.but still the career mode sucks with filthy player facial expressions and motions. and really EA can only promote and do nothing less. I fu want to play a real soccer game play pes.

    No matter what you think of it, it should never be considered a bad game. The User Score is a protest because people want EA to change something, and EA should do it sooner rather than later, but there's only so much you can do with a football game. But PES this year (for me) is too frantic, that isn't always how football is and there's not enough control. FIFA still has the edge for me;No matter what you think of it, it should never be considered a bad game.

    EA have once again decided to exploit a loyal fanbase. No new "real" innovations in gameplay since FIFA 14. This approach worked wonders for them in the past because there was no competition. They are overestimating their appeal and I don't think they will wake up until they see a hit in sales. Fifa fans, vote with your wallet!

    FIFA 15 was a huge disappointment for me and instead of playing it for a year (like I used to do with previous renditions) I buried it on the shelf right after I finished a bitter review. FIFA 16 showed up at my door with flowers and we worked things out. Casual gamer may not notice all the tweaks (i.e. more responsive defenders and better AI), but for me they were invaluable as they helped to rebalance the gameplay and made the game enjoyable again.

    This is a year in which FIFA switches down a gear in terms of pure speed, yet provides marathons' worth of value, if you have the stamina for it. [Christmas 2015, p68]

    The most challenging FIFA to master in years, if not ever - but that's exactly why you'll be playing it for ten months rather than ten matches. [Dec 2015, p.76]
