    As usual its just another lazily game that's been given to us. Defence is appalling, players move like they're 50 stone, can't do anything about pace. Worst FIFA ive ever played. Trying to become a football simulator like PES haha, no. Stick to arcade style play. No one plays FIFA for realism. We play only because the licenses.

    Not worth the upgrade. Still has all the same problems as last years version. A certain other game by Konami has raised the bar now and EA can't match it where it counts, on the pitch. The Journey is like a mediocre tv series with a bit of gameplay interupting now and again. Excessive load times in career mode. Bring back the virtual pro EA.

    A welcomed evolution of FIFA 17.Nothing seems the same though as the game takes a hint from PES's freedom in movement and flexibility and adds gorgeous graphics, true to life animations, stunning atmosphere and more than enough game modes. The best FIFA to date emerges the player in a real football world with so many tournaments and options. Credits for the sound/visuals and commentaryA welcomed evolution of FIFA 17.Nothing seems the same though as the game takes a hint from PES's freedom in movement and flexibility and adds gorgeous graphics, true to life animations, stunning atmosphere and more than enough game modes.

The only problem? Lack of customisation again. FIFA must let players create their own clubs at last. Expand

    By rebuilding the animation system the developers managed to significantly improve footballers’ responsiveness, which results in more fluent gameplay and lets you perform tighter maneuvers. That makes attacking a real joy, but in my opinion turned defense into frustrating chore that requires too much precision. [12/2017, p.42]

    No huge changes have been made on the pitch, but thanks to improvements to The Journey and Ultimate Team, this is the most comprehensive and beautiful game of football on PS4. [December 2017, p.84]

    If you're looking for a football simulation then grab a copy of PES 2018. If you want a dramatic series of events with every match you play then get FIFA 18. [Issue#194, p.75]
