  1. A lovely game engine featuring independent player and ball physics. Card game campaign mode jazzes up offline play.
  2. There are countless days of single- and multiplayer amusement to be had, ensuring that you'll be kept suitably entertained until the next FIFA installment rolls off the EA conveyor belt...which will no doubt be in a few months' time. [Apr 2007, p.86]
  3. The addition of the new card collecting system is fresh and inspirational; however it is also frustrating with a steep learning curve that really needs a better introduction to persuade the FIFA elite to get involved.
  4. This is the game that "FIFA 07" should have been. Despite the little annoyances, this is the best soccer game on the 360.
  5. Overall it is a good game and if you are a soccer lover and I know you are out there this is a game that will not disappoint you.

    The animations are also really fluid and collisions look very natural, an area where Pro Evo is lacking.
  7. UEFA Champions League will surprise most people with its creativity and innovation. It may not be up to par with the competition quite yet, but the card collecting and trading feature makes this a must try for all soccer fans.

    A decent football game with a lot of teams and up-to-date lineups. The Treble feels more like a soap opera than football with simulated games and weird accidents. On the pitch UCL 06–07 has its moments, but does not really shine. The new gameplay based on collectable cards in the Xbox 360 version works great and is tons of fun, and the game looks and sounds very nice. [Apr 2007]
  9. UEFA’s card-collecting aspect is a long shot on goal, but for some it will be right on target.
  10. UEFA Champions League's unique method of building teams by collecting player cards makes up for the fact that it's EA's fourth soccer game for the 360 in just over a year.
  11. The new Ultimate Team mode is addictive as it combines regular gameplay and managerial acumen with a trading card component that entices with a constant sense of accomplishment and attraction...What this UEFA achieves in this new mode it loses in the actual gameplay.
  12. Ultimate Team mode is an absolute blast.

    This is as good a football game as I have ever played (and there have been a few!). The gameplay is quick and slick, and the passing works This is as good a football game as I have ever played (and there have been a few!). The gameplay is quick and slick, and the passing works (much improved over FIFA 07). The tackling is difficult but that justs adds to the challenge of a game series (FIFA/UEFA) that could often have been classed as too easy in the past. The trading cards system is tricky to get used to at first, but after that it is great fun to use and make a change from normal methods. The graphics as always are superb. I am really enjoying this game. Give it a look. Full Review »

    Manages to combine next gen sound and graphics with gameplay that, while not bad, is a step back from FIFA 07 on the PS2. I can see where Manages to combine next gen sound and graphics with gameplay that, while not bad, is a step back from FIFA 07 on the PS2. I can see where this new game engine has promise, but I still feel like I'm playing a beta version rather than a finished product. The mediocre mechanics are in phenomenal contrast to the presentation, which is as polished as I've seen in a sports game (although the commentary can be a little repetitive). As for the trading card system, it's interesting, deep, and challenging, and something I look forward to being incorporated in future (and hopefully better playing) FIFA games. It's a tired refrain for soccer gamers, but it seems like if you want good gameplay, Winning Eleven is still the way to go. In a perfect world, EA's presentation team would combine with Konami's gameplay team to make the perfect soccer game. *sigh.* Bottom line: If you have FIFA 07 on the 360, you might want to rent this one before you buy.
