    Apocalypse B is one of the most stupid people that the world has ever had the misfortune to bear host to.FIFA 08 outstrips PES 2008 in gameplay,graphics,commentary and fun.And all the other categories.
    P.S(For you,Mr A B):You are an idiot.Go to another planet where you can do no harm and insults.

    This years Fifa is a big improvement on what EA have previously dished out. They have made great strides to make the game far more playable and realistic. The graphics are also neat with every stripe looking very sharp. One issue is with the overal presentation of the game. The commentary really needs improving. Overall a big improvement, however EA still have work to do.

(2) the players dont seem to move towards a pass somtimes. but them you can put aside as there not that bad and dont happen to often if your Well what can i say apart from ea you have finally made the football game we've been waiting for.all the leaues and players are just awesome.. there is just two things i can say i dont like, (1) is the computer seems to score to many freekicks. (2) the players dont seem to move towards a pass somtimes. but them you can put aside as there not that bad and dont happen to often if your careful. the good,well be a pro is just awesome wish it was more then one game, a whole season would be nice.manager mode is great a whole 15 seasons you can play through.. the gameplay is just spot on really and the commentators are the best ive heard in any football game, they are just up with the whole of the game and the way they go on about certain players (fabregas)etc and certain fixtures ie arsenal v man utd is just great.. the reason i dont give this a 10 is because of the 2 things i commented on earlier.. but hey ea i love this game, and any football fan trust me this will keep you going till fifa 09 easy... overall 9.5/10.… Expand

    Very polished and smooth, much better than PES 2007. It's a different type of game though, very realistic and slow paced. I kind of feel scoring is a little bit too difficult though.

    Good game. Online does have voice communication. Aaron B. is not correct.

    I think it's the best football game released ever. It's more realistic than any other football games. Plus the graphics is amazing. Online features also excellent.

    The game is great. Graphics are above average. Game Modes are acceptable. The only problem with the game modes is that they should have added become a goalkeeper. Other than that, the game is one of the best soccer games I've ever played

    FIFA 08 is the most playable version of the series yet in the next-gen era--including a cool Superstar-like mode--but ghosts of old gameplay still haunt this release. [Oct 2007, p.110]

    While the on-field action feels sluggish and unresponsive at first, you soon learn to work with the pace of the game and play it like you would the sport, rather than just the videogame. [Nov 2007, p.107]

    The infrastructure is definitely in place for a corker of a kickabout but the important thing - that intangible soul - is still frustratingly missing.
