    I don't understand why this game has so many negative reviews, because it is awesome.

As pessoas não podem se deparar com algo novo sem reclamar! O "first touch" ficou incrível, fazendo a jogatina parecer cada vez mais real, frustrando provavelmente as pessoas que negativaram o jogo! No começo eu tive opiniões muito parecidas com essas das pessoas que negativaram, mas aí eu me acostumei com as novidades, e adorei! Para mim, o único problema do FIFA 13 é o árbitro. Muitas vezes ele marca faltas que não existiram e ainda por cima dá cartão. Além de não marcar faltas que claramente existiram! Mas fora isso, não tenho nada a reclamar. Aqueles "mini-games" também são uma ótima pedida! Enfim, para mim o FIFA 13 ainda continua sendo o melhor jogo de futebol dessa geração! Acho que as pessoas que negativaram deveriam ver o jogo com um olhar mais crítico, aposto que todas as pessoas que negativaram são frustradas pelo "first touch" ou sempre "apanham" quando jogam multiplayer ou offline. Novamente a EA fez um ótimo trabalho. E a narração em português ainda está um pouco pobre de conteúdo, mas mostra cada vez mais o olhar para o Brasil! Obrigado por mais este ótimo jogo, EA!… Expand

    When I played the demo I immediately told myself that I wouldn't buy the game, however temptation got the better of me and I haven't looked back since. EA has done it again with FIFA, the online play is excellent again and career mode is full of little tweaks which make it a better game.

    FIFA is amazing, the franchise made a massive leap with FIFA 11, this has improved incrementally with FIFA 12 and FIFA 13.

    FIFA 13 is the best sports game to date.

    Normally I'm against having a new game out each year, and I think FIFA 12 wasn't a big enough change from FIFA 11, but this year I think that has been rectified and FIFA 13 is a solid game that feels more lifelike and more fun than any previous FIFA.

    This is the first time I play FIFA ever. It's a complete sports game, even more complete than the NBA2k series. People are **** about the stupidest things. It runs smooth to me. The most important aspect about the game is its replay value, I can't wait to play it again. Isn't that what's most important.

    FIFA 13 feels smooth and quick, which makes a change from the last 2 outings which to me felt sluggish with pre-determined animations. This is of the best soccer games to date and if EA fixed the dreadful server issues, then I'd have given this a 10. Still worth a buy for the fans that eat, sleep and breathe soccer/football like myself.

Graphically they is hardly any difference, except some new animations,the game feels faster and more fluid this year. The game has been improved technically very well over Fifa 12. Fifa 13 does not feel as scripted and previous incarnations. The arena is also improvement, with a vast array of mini games to improve your skill. SO far i'm really enjoying this years game. Must buy if your a fan of Football.… Expand

The AI still needs work as I have let in many goals due to my goalkeeping running out and missing an easy catch/punch and also I've missed many chances by my striker running into a defending then both of them falling over each other.

I'm enjoying the FIFA Ultimate Team mode even more though. Collecting packs of cards (even if they are only digital) reminds me of collecting baseball cards in my youth and then using the cards that you have to build your team is a blast! Even with all of the varied game modes this game wouldn't shine like it does without the stellar game-play. Everything you do on the pitch feels totally organic and the flow of the game feels right. All in all FIFA 13 is one of the best, if not the best, sports game I have ever played. Well done EA.… Expand

    The game is beautiful and stacked with useful and or cool features. You just have to put a bit of effort to learn the game, you won't master it straight away (and this seems to annoy most of the reviewers here).

The ball abides by physics in a way that makes much more sense, the players are more fallible (yes, even Messi and Ronaldo -- sorry fanboys), the ways in which you can score a goal are more diverse, and the games are less likely to become formulaic, as in FIFA 12. The updated teams are also nice -- Bayern and Germany (both underrated in FIFA 12) are much better, and overrated teams (any English team, the England squad, Inter Milan) are all a more accurately ranked. I'm not a big fan of the music, or the absurd number of menu bars and options (I struggle to figure out what most of them even mean until I've selected them). There are good new features -- there's a practice mode (called Skill Games or something) that's more fun than it should be, much better Virtual Pro (so far), and a better Career Mode (see: World Cup). I find the online gameplay a more compelling reason to buy it than the extras, and as someone who spent way too long playing FIFA 12, I feel like this version is different enough to justify buying it.… Expand

Pro clubs is miraculously fun and FIFA 13 held my attention for a few months longer than FIFA 12. FIFA 13 is the most realistic, rewarding and replayable FIFA to date.
