    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 rating of the game 0/10… Expand

    After playing this game for about 20 hours or so at first I didn't like it. The AI was far superior on World Class and above difficulty and I felt the passing felt a little off and your players would constantly have poor first touches and finishing took a bit of getting used to. How ever once I changed the sliders slightly for both myself and the AI it made a huge ammount of difference toAfter playing this game for about 20 hours or so at first I didn't like it.

How ever once I changed the sliders slightly for both myself and the AI it made a huge ammount of difference to both the flow of games and the difficulty is just right, challenging but not infuriating. I'd reccommend people play about with the sliders until you find something you feel is just right. The presentation is great as always and the large ammount of stadiums and teams keeps this ahead of the pack in my opinion.… Expand

    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]
