    The game's secret weapon this year, though, is the ball-juggling minigame... I killed more hours trying to keep David Beckham's balls off the ground than I can reasonably justify. [Nov 2005, p.123]

    Evidently, EA Sports has been hard at work these past six months, because FIFA 06 not only addresses the aforementioned problems, but also adds online play and an entertaining ball-juggling minigame to the mix.

    With the camera pulled back so far, the ball can get pretty tiny. Other than that, it's all solid, and a big improvement on last season. [Nov 2005, p.98]

    It's fun to play, even if the managerial options of our season are missing. [Nov 2005, p.182]

    It's smoother, feels better and doesn't feel so much like a PS2 game squeezed into a PSP's body.

    The version to pass on.
  7. Official Playstation 2 Magazine UK

    FIFA's class is not in doubt, but for a series already in a clear state of transition, the move to a new platform is a bridge too far. [Christmas 2005, p.117]

Play is much more fluid and the game doesn't pause when the ball is going out of bounds. You also don't have to be right in front of the goal in order to shoot on goal. Online play has also been enabled and the mini game is fun. Cons - Player controls may not be as responsive as they should. Also, you have to sign up with SoccerNet if you want to play online...either that or pay a fee with your credit card. WTF?? I mean this was a big disappointment...after shelling out 50 bucks + they try to squeeze a couple more dollars out of you. It is a nominal fee but still...paying to play a video game is a dangerous precendent. Overall, I am happy with FIFA 06 and would without a doubt upgrade, if you are a FIFA fan, from last years game.… Expand

    I honestly can`t believe people have actually given this garbage 10/10. Its one of the worst games I have ever played. The gameplay is I honestly can`t believe people have actually given this garbage 10/10. Its one of the worst games I have ever played. The gameplay is incredibly slow and jerky, and the controls are totally unresponsive. EA should be ashamed of themselves, as they have released a game not worthy of the original Game Boy, never mind the technical wonder that is the PSP. Avoid this travesty of a game, IT STINKS!!!… Expand
