Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review

The greatest battle of the new football season is not between any real world club but between the virtual giants of FIFA and Pro Evolution Soccer. Konami’s game has always been the favourite but last year FIFA closed the gap to such a degree that the title race has never been closer. This year’s FIFA uses a completely new game engine, for the first time built specifically for the next gen consoles. But improved graphics and animation are only the half of it, with just as much focus going on the artificial intelligence thanks to the new "35 point decision engine". What this basically means is that every player on the pitch is fully aware of those around him and constantly thinking about tactics and position when not under your control.

Other changes include better modelled physics for taking a shot on goal, which take into account everything from air pressure to the angle of your foot. You’re also able to create your own special moves to replicate every possible trick from real life. There are also new game modes. On top of this there are revamped online leagues to play a virtual season in the Premier League, Bundesliga, French League or Mexican 1st Division against real opponents. With 620 licensed teams, 30 offline leagues and 15,000 players as well FIFA might just have made enough new signings this year to put it over the top.

Manufacturer's Description
Get closer to the action than ever before by mastering the skills required to play like a real professional soccer player in FIFA 08.

From the moment you step on the pitch, FIFA 08 challenges you to think and react like a real soccer player by giving you complete control over all of the action. New manual controls enable you to dictate the play with control over through-passing and crossing. Control the goalkeeper in one-on-one situations to deny the striker yourself. Plus, now it is more strategic to break down the opposition than ever before with new defensive and positioning logic that ensures players are in the right place at the right time, constantly considering all threats and opportunities.

Intelligently manage your club by preparing for each specific opponent using new custom formations. Design your own unique strategy to create the perfect formation and tactics. Assign roles and move players to the exact position in relation to teammates to undermine the opposition.

In addition, FIFA 08 is dramatically more real and exhilarating with the inclusion of 30 real stadiums, 30 official leagues, and more than 12,500 players all accurately re-created.

4.0 out of 5 stars Another chapter in the FIFA/PES love affair, 9 Oct 2007
By Simon J. Whight "typical_moody_dj" (Manchester) - See all my reviews
(TOP 100 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 
For years now it has been accepted that the state of play is that ProEvolution Soccer is the only game that is worth caring about. Look past the iffy licencing, dodgy names, limited leagues and cups and you have a superb footballing engine at the crux of it all.

Something made me think though, should I just accept what is said to be true. I can remember the old isometric days with players highlighted by circles and stars, screaming in 35 yard wondershots, but surely EA must pay attention to what the market demands.

I would say that the gap between FIFA and PES as far as a basic footballing engine is at its smallest yet. Indeed I may even go so far as to say I prefer it. The basic functionality of the game remains the same, pass, shoot, lob, throughball (albeit with pass and shoot buttons differing between the two franchises) but the tactical side of the game feels so much more advanced than last years PES6. Players signalling off the ball runs, overly boysterous shunts drawing free kicks, a player goes down in the box and play is waved on, players with skill performing the odd piece of flair without it looking unnatural or forced into the game to appear flashy. Also the way that players seem to wane, and lose confidence if things go against them as the clock ticks on. Spot on.

Add to this the superb presentation, animations of players appropriately berating each other for defensive slip ups, fluid ball control and shooting motions. Then there is the commentry. This is like walking into a lush wonderland when compared to the near silence of PES6. Also the content of it is on the whole accurate as to what happens on screen. Pre-ambles about tough opening games of seasons, surprise at goals from nowhere as a match heads for a draw, comments on players losing confidence in front of goal. Excellent.

There is a huge wealth of gamplay options available here. Round the world leagues already set up and ready to compete in along with nominated and adjustable rival team for the season (Liverpool v Everton for example), a wealth of cup competitions. This is just scratching the surface. So much is there for the football fan and on such a small machine too, I do like the mentality of "we will give you everything you need" here.

Of course there are downsides, the odd graphical glitch with textures on hair I've seen, and perhaps one or two moments of madness from the keeper/defence when it came to a throw out and clearing their lines. But perhaps this reflects reality and the fact that teams are not all robots.

I'll have to compare this to PES7 when it finally surfaces, but currently this is the top dog of football sims on the machine. Just make sure you don't dismiss this purely because of the 'lore' of PES is god.

4.0 out of 5 stars Fifa 08 PSP Review, 30 Sep 2007
By Chris Smith "Chris" (Aberdeen, Scotland) - See all my reviews
Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars 
i bought this game and got it the day it came out for psp. i couldn't wait to play it, the new features like be-a-pro were the things that persuaded me to buy it. i also love the ability to play online for the fifa games. This is an excellent game, its pritty much the same as fifa 07 but with new ways to shoot, cross and you can control your goalkeeper manually. The only negative thing about this game, and its a MASSIVE negative is that it does NOT have the Be-aPro mode i was expecting, it seems only consoles that use televisions to play them include the be-a-Pro mode. this was very disappointing, i also find that the semi-pro difficulty on fifa 08 is harder than the semi-pro difficulty on fifa 07 however this is still a very good game thanks to manager mode, challenges mode and most importantly ONLINE PLAY! There is also a new feature on the main menu called Football IQ which tests your knowledge of football. right now my IQ is 126, dunno if thats good or not but alot of the questions are repeated.

5.0 out of 5 stars FIFA Rocks - PROEVO Sucks, 1 Dec 2007
By J3B "Jimbo" (Plymouth, UK) - See all my reviews
Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 
The ONLY footie game to own for the diehard fan. Proevo lost it's appeal to me when I bought 07, & 08 improves the whole experience. Now adding pre-season friendles as well.

OK the keepers make Lehman style boobs on occasion, but that is realistic. You can pull off the special moves (with practice), but crossing is certainly harder. Crank up the difficulty level & enjoy a tough game of footie. As a plus you get proper leagues, Masterleague ? Pah !!
