Games » FIFA 10 Review

Screenshot1

FIFA 10 is officially the premiere soccer game for the iPhone and iPod Touch. Featuring many of the options and controls of its big brother on the consoles, players will be able to control their favorite team or create their own player to control. The controls of this game a pretty decent with a virtual joystick and a large number of passes that can be performed with just the two buttons on screen. With a slide or a double tap, players can execute a through ball or pop the ball up to lob it over the heads of the opposing team.

The game flowed very smooth overall but I wasn't without my concerns. The main concern that comes up almost immediately is the almost always present framerate issues.

The game runs smooth, but it will occasionally get framerate hiccups that will eventually get annoying. The AI in the game does a decent job when playing on harder levels but on lower levels, it if pretty much dumb.

Overall, the game does a great job bringing the FIFA experience to the iPhone and making it all work. The occasional framerate issues are forgivable when you experience how much has actually been packed into the game. This game will definitely be a hit or miss for many of you as the controls can take some getting used to and the gameplay can be tough to manage. But overall it is definitely a solid release for a soccer game. Check it out.

What you talkin\' \'bout? It seems like you\'ve only bothered to play this game twice before posting this ridiculous review!

When I first purchased FIFA 10, I originally had the same thoughts as you. I found the controls to be irrating, and the AI to be like headless chooks. However, after playing about 25 matches or so, I found the controls to be rather intuitive, purely due to the fact that I was used to them. By this stage, I was absolutely in love with this game. I advise all readers to ignore this hasty review (no offence to the reviewer though) and I would recommend this game to all soccer lovers.

By the way, this game is only for the hardcore gamers, and not for the casual pick-up-and-play gamers. It wil take you awhile to get used to the controls, but once you get used to them, this game is an absolutely blast.

Overall, I rate this game 9.12/10.00.
