    FIFA 20 like so many of its previous iterations doesn’t play very much like a real game of football. That’s someone due to smashing 90 minutes of game into a playable 10 minutes. The problem is that FIFA 20 simply isn’t very enjoyable in comparison to the likes of PES 2020.

That’s someone due to smashing 90 minutes of game into a playable 10 minutes. The problem is that FIFA 20 simply isn’t very enjoyable in comparison to the likes of PES 2020. EA Vancouver has provided substantial new content in this year’s game, Volta football being the main mode, including new House Rules for FUT and friendly matches, revamped set-pieces and a defense overhaul. The presentation with a Sky Sports broadcast, and full detail ripe in the menus. You only need to open a FUT pack and see the effort of presentation put forth. You can play the pass and shoot football here if you wish, but really these 3v3, 4v4 and 5v5 games are about skill and self-expression. The story itself isn't full of twists or turns and won't convince anyone that this is how real football is, but it’s still a somewhat gratifying experience overall. The quality of animation remains impressive as it does each year, but this year more than any previously, FIFA’s players feel more locked to 8-way movement grid, as PES 2020 feels more depth to it's overall control scheme. Defenders are now much less automated when you’re in control of them and the standing tackle has more range variant when you hold the action, so in this sense FIFA 20 presents new scoring options. FIFA 20 is engaging and it holds your attention, invites you to imagine being in possession of a full squad, and gets you plotting your journey from here to there in detail thanks to new season objectives. It rewards grinding with various currency and customization options, and makes you feel like you’re part of an online football club. In that regard, it’s ahead of PES 2020 and its comparatively lesser MyClub. FIFA 20’s biggest shortfall is the lack of producing an overall enjoyable football match. So if you're looking for the better football experience this year, my recommendation would be PES 2020 for the Xbox One. Long time fans of the FIFA franchise may still find enjoyment here but be sure not to pass over the option of PES 2020 in your Xbox One library as well. Expand

    Game has some good things about it, controls are often very tight and responsive, shooting remains mostly strong (aside from headers which are atrocious), and when things are working as they should the game can be quite a bit of fun.

Now on to the bad things: horrendous passing that goes all over the place despite your best efforts to aim it precisely, extremely overpowered pressing and counter attacking, strange spikes in difficulty on legendery and ultimate which alternately can be too difficult or far too easy while world class simply is too easy, horrendous ai intelligence, awful awful corners and near impossible heading of the ball. Very unfortunate how Fifa has turned the last couple years, Fifa 19 was the worst Fifa of all-time and Fifa 20 feels even worse. Sadly EA mostly only seems to care about milking their customers for money in FUT and not about the sport and game that so many of us have loved for a long time! Expand

    Vou resumir, é o FIfa 19 mais lento. futebol de rua, com movimentação de campo? Han... Mal feito.
    Triste, mais um ano a empresa usando o mesmo jogo desde o 18, só muda algumas coisas e bota preço cheio... é o mesmo jogo dos últimos 3 anos. Porém vendidos como novos a cada ano.
    Será sempre assim... Precisam refazer o game, parar de aproveitar 90% ... o jogo parou no tempo. Xbox one X

    I mean... it's FIFA, right? We buy it every year and we whine about it every year, but this year is different. The game is ok, but no Juventus? What?! The FMV for press releases and player negotiations is text with no voice acting? Are we in 2006?

    Add to that the many, many new bugs in the game this year, like having to go out and back into Volta every time you want to pay your friends

    Add to that the many, many new bugs in the game this year, like having to go out and back into Volta every time you want to pay your friends and the way you have to redo all of your controller settings because it doesn't save them and you can see how lazy they have been with their flagship title this year. It's almost as though they want to hand the title to Konami.

    EA really showed contempt for it's fans this year and proved that they are only interested in you buying coins to play FUT.

    EA, where is the love for football? Where's the passion? Where have you shown any love for the fans of the series? You must've forgotten how serious Pro Evolution Soccer is as competition.

    Modos online extremamente bugados e manipulados, e com microtransações até o talo, o que compensa são o número de ligas/jogadores/clubes licenciados e os modos fora do Ultimate Team

    The same game year-to-year. The developers are focused only on FUT. Single-player is getting forgotten more and more.

    For all the scathing comments about FUT's predatory and disgusting practices, it cannot be denied that FIFA 20 is still a great game. If micro-transactions are a concern then, avoid them - it is pretty easy to do with the sheer number of available options, which are next to none in this genre, with Volta and House Rules being incredibly fun additions to FIFA's on-going repertoire of modes. The subtle evolution of player skill moves might be inaccessible to the casual player, but the experts that can take advantage of these changes will definitely be able to test their skills. FIFA 20 is an evolution to the series, which has surprised with its diversity of options, and should only continue to grow as the decade goes on.

    FIFA 20 offers an impressive number of modes and introduce the awaited Volta Football, but the gameplay is too tied to individual situations of attack and defense and loses a bit of fun.

    A new Volta mode lights up a bumper footy package, but FIFA could do with an overhaul. [Issue#183, p.75]
