    Es un fifa continuista, pero a los que nos gusta el futbol te hace sentir en el mismo campo.
    La ambientacion es increible, muchos modos de juego.Lastima que la jugabilidad se haya estancado un poco, pero sigue siendo divertido.

When it comes down to the actual football, overall I prefer PES's on pitch gameplay to Fifa's but the Fifa football experience is still very good.

The gameplay has been improved in all areas and the two new major additions: the low shot and the physical button have changed the way you will play.

    The journey is something i have been waiting for in a football game, a story mode. It would have been better if you could customize your own player but nonetheless it is good fun. The story is well written, the training aspect is good, social media has been included and what you say has an impact on your followers and on your manager so you will need to find the balance between being fiery and cool. I do feel many will enjoy this new mode and it is something that will be improved upon just like when ultimate team came out.

    There are a few things which could be improved like; players animations, customization, passing feels sluggish, improve players first touch and when moving with the ball.

    I will be playing this till the next Fifa comes out, Fifa 17 is not perfect but it is the best Fifa i have played.    … Expand

    One of the best games by far and offers new game modes that are great and improved on, one of the new features is "The Journey" which is incredible and the story does truly change depending on what you do with it. My main criticism comes from the lack of improvement in Career mode and all It's bugs but that will be fixed soon.

    simply put, this the best, most smooth soccer (football) game ive ever played. the graphics are great, the gameplay is great, and the atmosphere in-game is second to none. plus, unlike some other soccer games, this games has all teams officially licensed, which really adds to the immersion in the game.

    Grande ideia criar modo com história, excelente gráfico para todas as plataformas, era o que mais o Fifa precisava, pois a tempos estava defasado. Dou nota 10 pela atualização de gráficos e modo de jogo. Para quem prefere simulação, um prato cheio.

    I had the same conditions until PES 2012 was released. The first time that i played the game, i was realy surprised! Because i expect a better version of the game than last one, but it was strongly awful and i was disappointed of it.
    Some days later a friend of mine, suggest me to test the FIFA 12 and when i wanted to start mocking it, he was not allowed me to speak and told me "FIFA has changed and it's not like the FIFA 06. please play the game without prejudice and then judge it...!"
    And that was the beginning of my 5 years of playing FIFA without switching back to PES! Because i figured out that EA has changed the engine of FIFA and the game was awesome! And each year, the company was correct the bugs and problems and made a better and better version of it's video game.
    And today -with Frost Bite engine at the head of affairs- EA company has made a nice and perfect game.

    I usually don't buy games on launch day, especially on FIFA cause I don't think it's is worth 60$, but I did it with this one cause I won't do it with the 18 19 or even 20 iteration. FIFA 17 is worth the buy, at least for me coming from the 2 years old FIFA 15, but if you come from the last year one I don't think you'll be disappointed.    … Expand

    Gameplay though still needs plenty of work players sadly do not feel that different from each other weather you are Messi, Ronaldo, Kroos or Pogba. also quick pacey players who can leave a lot of defenders for dead feel a little slow they have however improved the tackling mechanic you can no longer just mash the O button and steal the ball easy you do have to work hard and time your tackles every time which is a big improvement.
    Graphically it looks good wear on the pitch is a nice touch the new frostbite engine certainly does make this look like the beautiful game except during substitutions players look a little deformed when walking as well as a few animation issues.

    Overall i would give this game a 7.8/10 so rounded up to an 8/10 not a pretty good football game but in need of a overhaul i fear the slump Fifa suffered in the early 2000's may rear its ugly head again.    … Expand

Does this make a difference to the game and does the all new journey mode hold its ground in the FIFA franchise? Let’s find out.
    FIFA has risen to the surface again, with an all-new look and new mode. This year's installment of the franchise has been designed with the Frostbite engine to allow for the story-driven journey mode. You play as Alex Hunter, a little kid playing pick-up games in a Sunday league in London, England. Time skips forward seven years, to when you are about to try out for one of the twenty premier league teams.
    Once you get a grade high enough to make the team you choose which team you want to be a part of. You start off as a substitute; before each game you do some training and depending on how you perform that can determine if you are going to be starting or sitting on the bench. As you play through a few games you get bumped down into another league. Doing well in the lower league will get you called back up to the premier league. Throughout the journey, the way you respond to people can have an effect on you: if you answer a question with a cocky attitude, your followers will go up but the relationship with your manager will go down, if you answer a question cool the manager relationship will go up but the followers will go down. The way you respond to your team mates can also affect your relationship with them off and on the field. Through the course of your journey, you will see your stats increase and sponsorship deals come in as you reach a certain amount of social media followers.
    All the modes from previous installments of FIFA are there, from season mode all the way to ultimate team. FIFA has done a lot of things right in this year's installment compared to last year’s, however, the game does still struggle with some mechanics. Passing is one of them; while I am on the pitch and I want to pass it to another player it will go to another teammate that I had no intention of passing it to. As well, during a penalty kick I could not switch my keeper to automatic control, which became very frustrating.
    FIFA 17 delivers exactly what I needed and wanted in a soccer game, a lot of changes for the good, an all-new story driven mode showing the ups and downs of a professional athlete, Ultimate team mode where you can build your all-star team of current players and legends from Reus to Beckham, and play through the divisions. If you are football fan then FIFA 17 is the definitely the title you want to pick up.

    The story mode (this year’s biggest selling point) is not perfect, but I was surprised how much I was invested in this idealized adventure every little boy dreams of while playing football with his pals. None other mode in FIFA or PES provides such experience. In all other departments – licenses, visuals, sound, atmosphere – the new FIFA is as strong as ever. [12/2016, p.67]
