    If you are an Ultimate Team die-hard then maybe 2014 FIFA World Cup Brazil won’t be for you, but if you are a FIFA fan and excited about the upcoming World Cup then definitely give this one a try. The only thing there is to dislike about it is the new podcasters that you can have talking during the menus.

    2014 FIFA World Cup Brazil is a proof that you can create a World Cup-themed FIFA game with lots of new features and an atmosphere of this great sporting event. We get official teams, pretty stadiums, special game modes and more aggressive AI on the football field. This game can be proudly called a high quality official virtual counterpart to the real thing.

    2014 FIFA World Cup Brazil would make more sense if it had been a DLC. [June 2014]

    The price tag is quite absurd, but you can't ignore the high quality EA Sports can offer in its football games and this quality is present here.

    It’s a fully featured game of FIFA that has been branded beautifully for the World Cup. If you can’t wait for June for the World Cup then I’d highly recommend checking out this game, it’s really well done.

    Building on FIFA 14's strengths, EA's new FIFA World Cup manages to recreate all the excitement around the greatest soccer competition, even if without adding any major innovations to the series.

    In the way that sports games go, this is every bit a $60 release, even with availability limited to aging hardware.

    They newest edition of FIFA is certainly a nice soccer game to play. However, it is not really necessary if you already bought FIFA 14. Nevertheless, FIFA World Cup Brazil is on its best: smooth gameplay and plenty of content to entertain you.

    If the gameplay is a zero-sum when compared to FIFA 14, the title's World Cup-related accoutrements are welcome, but not significant.

    On-pitch action is fast and frantic. It may be to simulate the pressures of knock-out football, but end-to-end contests seem much more frequent, with chances at either goal. Players are able to get the ball out of their feet quicker to make passes, but still suffer when it comes to intricate dribbles.

    It’s too expensive for its contents but the gameplay has several good improvements compared to FIFA 14.

    It's best to consider 2014 FIFA World Cup Brazil as a less serious, more accessible accompaniment to the main FIFA series. Focused more on giving you a good time than on advancing the quest for realism in sports games, this is a football game that's perfect for fans who are looking for a way to pass the hours between World Cup matches this summer.

    Although only available for Xbox 360 and PS3, it does more than an admirable job in faithfully recreating some footie action, and the low price point is also an added bonus.

    This is still football at it's finest for Xbox 360 or PS3 owners. It's difficult to justify it for owners of FIFA '14, but these titles always do well with a non-footballing audience. It’s ideal for gamers who enjoy the sport and want to get immersed in World Cup fever when June rolls around.

    Its fuse may burn shorter than most, but between June and July its flame will be dazzling.

    World Cup Brazil 2014 is a good football game with solid gameplay, polished visuals and gorgeous presentation. But 70€ for only National Teams and limited modes is too much.

    - The passes are horrible, even if you aim to the player you want to pass the ball, its really hard to do it.

    Being to the point -
    - The passes are horrible, even if you aim to the player you want to pass the ball, its really hard to do it.
    - The run is useless, is never good enough
    - The player skills are also VERY limited.
    - The match opening lasts too long
    - The graphics is the same, and sometimes is pretty worse than the others FIFAs games.
    - The penalty aim is pretty confuse.
    - If the ball is crossed into the area, 80% of the times its going to be a GOAL, cause your defese player never jumps to head the ball out of the area. -- The game is simply horrible, and doesn't worth your money.
