    I really enjoy the newest Fifa. The tempo of the game is more realistic than on previous Fifas i've played. It's more fun to play career mode than before, because it really requires some tactical thinking sometimes to break the AI-defence. Also it seems that AI is wiser and better than before.

    Anyways, i'm not giving 10 because sometimes it feels that all the goals are identical. Just

    All in all, great game with lots of nice singleplayer and multiplayer modes to choose from. FUT is awesome.

    PES 13 was great, but this is even better.

    This game is amazing as far as Ultimate Team. After a while every game i played at least 2 of my players got injured. Even if i put maximum power into my shot he basically passes it to the goalkeeper

Attacking is no longer creative or fluid do to these defensive buttons and has made attacking - especially in Ultimate Team - extremely repetitive and dull. Granted, when defending, without these buttons it was difficult to have full control over your defence, however there there must be another way to navigate round this issue. Though surprise surprise EA just produce another spin off of its older version, and only sells due to - what seems like - MORE MONEY SPENT on the games MARKETING than redeveloping the game to even remotely ENHANCING the actual gameplay. It almost like they didn't even do extensive testing to identify this HUGE FISSURE IN THE GAME which is the DEFENSIVE BUTTONS. Expand

    A football game made by EA Sports which features different modes like career mode or just play. Its is not as bad as all the reviews say it is personally, but I do admit it is somewhat scripted. Another big concern is that passing or most actions like shooting or passing, take a while for the game to process. Another concern is that the game sometimes doesn't detect fouls.

    I can't believe how many negative reviews this game has, seriously. The game is probably not that much of an improvement from 13, the career mode has been fleshed out a bit more along with the introduction of a FM style scouting where you are unable to view the stats un-scouted players. Although a nice addition for the more hardcore football fan, in reality it becomes a bit tiresome.I can't believe how many negative reviews this game has, seriously.

Unfortunately now its the other way round, because in seasons every noob runs to Real Madrid, so unless you are either Barcelona or Manchester City you have virtually no chance with Bale, CR7 and co running at your defense. With the game new mechanics players with pace and height (CR7, Bale, Ibarbo, etc) will tear the likes of Thaigo Silva apart. I like the new mechanics and the slowed down gameplay, but having such an over-powered team unbalances the game. UT mode has vastly improved, with the ability to change formations at will now and the ability to enhance player stats with boost cards. It's far more a tactical battle there, but it shouldn't be this way. Overall better this year in some parts, far far worse in others. Expand

    I can honestly say that this by far THE WORST GAME EVER MADE!!!! YES, EVEN WORSE THAN FIFA 13 AND BLACK OPS 1 AS IF THESE GAMES WEREN'T **** ENOUGH TO COUNT AS GAMES. The game had potential of being decent with some attempts to improve game modes including FUT. However it failed miserably, so here are some things that have really pissed me out on FIFA this year.

    1) I can understand why
    I can honestly say that this by far THE WORST GAME EVER MADE!!!! YES, EVEN WORSE THAN FIFA 13 AND BLACK OPS 1 AS IF THESE GAMES WEREN'T **** ENOUGH TO COUNT AS GAMES. The game had potential of being decent with some attempts to improve game modes including FUT. However it failed miserably, so here are some things that have really pissed me out on FIFA this year.

    1) I can understand why to make the pace of the game slower than it was on the last game because it way too fast and players with 85+ pace is basically unstoppable. But with this game they took this too far and make every player on the game really slow so that players with around 30 pace can catch up to a player with 90+ pace and making these players unusable.

    2) The amount of headers and rebounds that are scored on this game, mainly UT. The number of games that i have played, about 90% of goals i concede are headers and rebounds. The headers i concede are mainly from corners, it always happens in the 45th or the 90th minute but i never score any headers from corners but that's what costs people games on FIFA and to top this one off, HEADERS ARE SO OVERPOWERED!!!!!.

    3) The game is also ruined by absolute biased referees that does not apply the rules of football on a video game. That's terrible because referees only given decisions that are not fouls or whoever gets the possession. They book players when you touch an opposition's player and does not book any players for bad, rash tackles. What's worse is that when you make a fair tackle when on a one on one situation, THE REFEREE WILL SEND YOU OFF!!!!! WTF!!!!! Why can't they have real life referees instead?

    4) The transfer market system on Career mode is a **** joke. If you want to buy the best players in the game, you look at their overall ratings and stats. But that's nothings compared to this game. The players don't have an overall rating until you scout them to confirm the player's overall rating. But who wants a scout in your club anyway, you will never find any unknown potential young players in the country you want the scout to go to for finding these players.

    5) This one may not be the game designer's fault for having in the game, but i really do feel when you play online on UT that people should never use any substitutes during an UT match because your wasting more contracts by using more players in one match. This can really also change the flow of an UT match instantly which is annoying because gamers are too scared of losing matches so they decide to bring on the most overpowered players off the bench instead of keeping the team as it is. It would help because it will stop the opposition from wasting your time when pausing the game.

    6) The thing that i think that pisses me off the most out of anything in this steaming pile of goat **** game is the EA SERVERS THEMSELVES!!!!!! I CAN'T BELIEVE THAT THE WORST GAMING COMPANY IN THE WORLD ARE STILL MAKING THIS DISASTER OF A GAME SERIES SINCE FIFA 12!!!!!! HOW CAN THEY TAKE A POPULAR SPORT AND MAKE IT INTO A GAME SERIES WITHOUT MAKING IT DISAPPOINTING? THAT'S IS WHAT THEY HAVE DONE. EA SPORTS ARE SO LAZY THAT THEY DON'T EVEN BOTHER TO FIX THEIR SERVERS WHICH REQUIRES MAINTENANCE FOR **** HOURS AND PREVENTS ANYONE FROM PLAYING ONLINE, UPDATES DOES NOT MAKE ANY DIFFERENCE TO THE GAME WHAT SO EVER, THE AMOUNT OF TIMES YOU GET DISCONNECTED FROM THE SERVERS TO COST PEOPLE MATCHES WHEN THEY ARE WINNING. THE ABSOLUTE WORST THING ABOUT FIFA THAT EA SPORTS HAVE INCLUDED IS EA SCRIPTING. THIS HAS BEEN SOMETHING THAT EA SHOULD TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR, HAVING PEOPLE TO PLAY YOUR GAMES AND HAVING FUN, RIGHT? NO!!!!! THE EA SERVERS DECIDES WHO WINS AND WHO LOSES EVERY MATCH. THIS DOES NOT MAKE ONE GAMER BETTER THAN THE OTHER BECAUSE IT'S FAIR ON PEOPLE WHO WANT TO PLAY A GAME LIKE THIS, EA SERVERS ARE **** CHEATERS, THEIR SCAMMERS, THEIR AN INSULT TO THE GAMING INDUSTRY WHO WOULD HAVE SPENT MORE TIME PLAYING BETTER GAMES INCLUDING GTA 5, THEY DON'T KNOW HOW FOOTBALL WORKS, THEY OVERPRICE THEIR GAMES SO THAT THEY CAN EARN MORE MONEY TO MAKE MORE ****TY FIFA GAMES, THEY DON'T MAKE ANY IMPROVEMENTS ON PEOPLE'S REQUESTS FOR THEIR NEXT GAMES, EA SERVERS REFUSE TO GIVE ANY PEOPLE REFUNDS FROM THE AMOUNT OF COMPLAINTS THEY HAVE, EA SERVERS PAY REVIEWERS TO MAKE POSITIVE REVIEWS WHERE REALLY THEY SHOULD ALL BE NEGATIVE.

    EA SPORTS, I REALLY HOPE THAT SOON ENOUGH THAT YOUR COMPANY GOES BUST BECAUSE WHY CAN'T YOU LET ANOTHER SPORTS COMPANY MAKE A FIFA GAME? YOUR LATEST FIFA GAME IS THE WORST GAME OF ALL TIME AND DOES NOT DESERVE TO HAVE MILLIONS OF SALES. PEOPLE BUY YOUR GAMES BECAUSE THEY EXPECT A GREAT SPORTS GAME. IF THEY ARE NOT ENJOYING THE GAME MAKE CHANGES ON PEOPLE'S REQUESTS. IN MY OPINION WHAT WOULD BE BETTER, YOU STOP MAKING FIFA GAMES AND SCAMMING PEOPLE TO BUY YOUR OVERPRICED PIECES OF **** GAMES. ANY PEOPLE OUT THERE THAT WANTS TO PLAY A FOOTBALL GAME, DO YOURSELF A FAVOUR AND NEVER BUY THE LATEST FIFA GAME, EVER IT'S **** DREADFUL.

    Fifa 14, a mixed bag overall. Admittedly whilst the new features make for a more realistic football game, i found that a lot of the time they made for a less enjoyable game.

If i take the global transfer network, for example, it does seem like a more professional way of searching for players however the lack of the ability to search for players by overall rating really hinders the transfer system in the game. Also just whilst on the subject of transfers i feel, in my experience, that some clubs asked for unrealistic and just plain over the top amounts to sign players. This made it difficult to sign good players without paying through the teeth to get them.

    The actual in match football for this game has been slowed down considerably, with more emphasis being put on pressing, controlling the midfield and generally more strategic football. This makes for a more challenging game in my opinion but at the cost of making a love it or hate it play style that will alienate many fifa regulars. The footballing gameplay is more streamlined and realistic, but will make some of the same mistakes previous games would. Some of these include your defenders being caught in no man's land by a single long ball over the top or by the sluggishness of the AI players reacting to loose balls. The most severe of these mistakes in my opinion the fact that your players will constantly be caught offside through a combination of their ineptitude and by the most unrealistic part of the game, good linesmen. These guys could catch you offside if you breathed past the last defender, which although annoying does cut out some of the through ball syndrome previous fifa games had.

    The rest of the game i found satisfactory, with menus not necessarily made simpler but organised in a way that allows for quicker navigation when you get used to the system and the usual high amount of fifa customization throughout the rest of the game.

    Final verdict: Not a bad way to initiate your fifa experience if new to the franchise, but i wouldn't recommend fifa 13 owners to 'upgrade' unless really into this style of strategic football.

One of the main problems in my opinion about Fifa 14 is the (what seems like) lack of effort put into this Current Gen title. When I first went onto the game I immediately looked at the squads and there it was. Mesut Ozil was at Real Madrid and Gareth Bale was at Spurs. Bear in mind that these two players transferred from these clubs over three weeks before the game was released. It speaks volumes.

    Fifa 14 provides a perfect balance in general gameplay but feels like a major let down following on from the fantastic Fifa 13.

    • You can't choose what to do after a match is tied at the end of 90'.

    FIFA 14 (360) still lacks basic features. For example, you still can't filter possible multiplayer opponents on the basis of connection quality.

    You may as well buy FIFA 13 (360) instead.
    • The above-mentioned bugs don't exist.
    • Most of the graphics (gameplay, UI) in FIFA 14 are identical with FIFA 13.

    Conclusions
    • EA spent as little on development as possible on FIFA 14 (360). Perhaps this was to maximize resources on the next gen SKUs, and the upcoming World Cup 2014 title.
    • Microsoft knowingly allowed this turd to ship. Perhaps this was in exchange for the assurances that EA would promptly ship FIFA for Xbox One.
    • Any pro reviewer giving FIFA 14 (360) a high score is dishonest.

    PS Don't blame the QA testers. They invariably find these bugs. It's management who over-rules them, deeming bugs as "shippable".

    This game had so much potential. Yes, they did improve a lot of things such as ball physics, and more realistic player movement, but seriously, the stuff going on 'behind the scenes" in this game is a joke. EA has practically taken the idea of user input and made some sort of practical joke out of it. Players rarely do what they are intended to do. Such a shame.

Now I have lost 28 out of the last 30, some of them against people who doesnt look like they have ever played before. I can have 20 shots at goal against one and still lose 1-0. Scripted.

    FIFA 14 is a game that has received mixed reviews some positive and a lot that are negative. FIFA 14 on the 360 brings nothing new to the table. It's just FIFA 13 with a new coat of paint. All the games are rigged up the wazoo. Playing ultimate just to score 3 goals and then just to get smacked in the next half. Your just following what EA has planned for that game.

    First of all, FIFA has decided to make through balls impossible. They probably thought. "Hey remember, when FIFA 13 was fun because people could play nice through balls? Let's kill that off!" Great idea. Now everyone has to play lob passes. And like that alone isn't annoying enough (because which team in real life would play with lob passes) the defenders are always so stupid to stop running when someone lobs the ball. Great idea EA Sports! What they have also decided is that FIFA 13 was too much fun because you could play nice combinations. But there they also thought "Let's get rid of that". The touches are ridiculous now. 5 star team players act like this the first time they play. Also they need a radius of 5 meters to make a turn. Good job, EA!

    Goal keepers are horrible at corners!

    9 of ten goals are scored by headers. According to EA football players are now better at scoring with their head than with their feet! You learn something new every day! Thank you EA Canadians! You big football nation!

    Some special players like Ibrahimovic are impossible to defend against! He can do anything he wants. You don't have skills and you don't know how to play football? Fine! Just play with PSG and Ibrahimovic. Even Champions League final defenders like Hummels or Subotic won't win a header against him.

    When you play a long pass to your players in front, it will most of the time go to the offside player! They can stand on the same exact line and 5 of 6 players can be onside but you can be sure the player who is off side will touch the ball first even though you never meant to play the ball to him.

    Probably don't need to remind people that the games are all scripted and that there are streaks! EA, this is football, not a pit game in a Las Vegas casino!

    What is also really nice and realistic is, that after you score a goal and there is a kick-off in the middle of the pitch it's actually a lot easier for the opponent to score a goal! So we all know that after a goal both teams go back in their own half! So obviously it should be hard to score a goal 5 seconds after the kick-off? That's why they rarely ever happen, right? Not according to EA. Watch a freaking game of football (or soccer like you call it) once in a while!

    But there are also one good thing! EA has worked on the goal celebrations! Isn't that great? Isn't that why you buy a game? Not because you wanna play a fun game with nice passing goals but so can you have 100 different goal celebrations that you can rub in your opponent's face when the dramatic game script allows you to score!

    This game is finally dead to me! Never again! I want to play football against people. Not "dramatic script ball" against nerds who only try to beat you by exposing the flaws of the game. This is not football! This is not fun! I'm sick of being frustrated after playing a video game! EA please stop buying the FIFA license when you bring out a game like that! It's a disgrace.

    Brilliant Game if your a football fan I don't get complaints about this game I don't understand all the negative reviews in personal opinion I don't see what else you can expect from a football game the graphics and game play are spot on. little slow on updates apart from that id say a top class game. better on xbox one but that's down to the console

    In this year's installment FIFA doesn’t take any larger leaps forward. It is still a polished football game for the dedicated fan base. And for the player who doesn’t want to play alone Ultimate Team is probably better than ever. But it is still too bad that EA hasn’t worked more on improving the core mechanics of the game.

    FIFA 14 pushes the franchise forward in baby steps without providing any major surprises or new “wow” features, yet is still streets ahead of the competition and a must for any footie fan.

    While I have mixed feelings about EA’s perch on this lucrative pedestal, it’s hard to to argue that the EA Canada team hasn’t earned it, and doesn’t continue to earn it, by delivering a game that really does feel better, really does feel different, every year, even if you have to be an avid player of the game to really appreciate how.
