Creation Center return in PS4 and XONE a big plus. FIFA and PES are so different that it's all about taste: some like meat some are vegs. So no debate about that. Pick your poison and enjoy but a note to EA: You really need a beast next year to do better than '16 and the trick is in the graphics, where there's a lot to do more.… Expand

    Great Game, Graphics, Game play the best soccer simulator ever.

    Fifa 16 just has one thing they should improve, the career mode and also to bring some ideas to the table.

    I didn't like it as much as PES 2016 when I first started playing it. But after a while I actually prefer this to PES. Graphics are much better making the game much more realistic.

    Draft Mode is kinda hard, because you dont get the tokens in every pack. i hope they make draft for free and not for 15.000 coins, its kinda hard to be honest to win all 4 games. because good gamers will play the draft mode all the time to win the packs, after winning it they should receive nothing and leave draft mode for the weak players. and please make better trophys like make 100 ultimate team matches or achieve 50% in pro club, make it to division 3 atleast to win a trophy because the thophys in fifa 16 arent that funny to make. i liked how they changed the passing, its not x x x x anymore, you need to use ur brain for the pass. shooting is a little bit to weak in my opinion but its okay i will get used to. pes has a little better gameplay with passing and shooting but the keepers and everything else is better in fifa. better package so i go with fifa this year. improve the graphics and a little bit the passing and the shooting and pes cant even reach you. its a really good game and see you next year.    … Expand

    Celebrations after goals
    Better defenses
    Accurate simulation figures
    And many other features

    Failures in defense and goal of FIFA 15 have been corrected , especially in regard to the keeper , and dependence on fast players is now virtually banished , especially in driving the ball . The rest is history : it is the best. Not perfect , but ... who is in this life? Long live the king.

    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.

Fisicas, defensa, porteros. y el modo FUT Draft es un modo nuevo e innovador con el que divertirse jugando. Si te gusta el fútbol real, este es tu juego. Si te gustan los arcades, mejor juega a PES 16.

    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

    Way better than Fifa 15. The neft to defending hurt the possession game and made it more arcade like, which I don't like.

    Pro clubs need some love and Ultimate team can be laggy at times.

    I hope they don't revert to the fifa 15 style for fifa 17, run the length of the pitch and score goals style.

    After the update patches, the game again regained the spot as the great soccer game that usually is. They corrected the penalties, the tempo, the speed of the players... now it's good. Unfortunely, the damage has already been made.

It is satisfactory to see ball hogs without patience and knowledge of the game stumbling to shine. This enables more people who actually love the real sport and have wisdom of tactical gameplay to flourish and thrive. 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. Not perfect, but oh so close. 9/10… Expand

    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.

    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.

    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]
