Summary: madden
Comment: the fifa games are rubbish in comparison to madden. The be a pro mode is useless as you can only do one game, whereas superstar mode on madden is much better as you can do a whole career and you just do your player. i have both fifa 08 and madden nfl 08 and i can honestly say that fifa pales in comparison. Franchise mode is 10 times better than manager mode.
Don't waste your money get madden

Summary: nothing new
Comment: i have been a fifa fan for all these years. i had got all the games even when my friends said i should stop buying them and get pro evo. my friends were right. i had really enjoyed the earlier ones like fifa 2003/4/5 beacause the game flow wasnt so stiff. when you changed direction it was smooth, same as all the gameplay. but since fifa 06, onwards the shot mechanics are poor, same unrealistic shot every time. when they run their arms look very stupid and you cant aim freekicks or corners with an arrow anymore. the goalpost vibration dosen't help. unlike the pro evo series where the shooting varies between what player you are. (ronaldinho will shoot like ronaldinho) and the dribbling is very smooth. i will still get the fifa games because i dont like to wait for the next football action. but i woulod reccomend the pro series.

Summary: Disappointed
Comment: I have to say that when I brought this game it was mainly because I was curious to see how it had succeeded Fifa 07. It doesn't. There are a few changes and a few add-ons but nothing to what I expected. It almost feels like the game has taken a step backwards. Fifa 07 I think is the best game for originality I have ever played and unfortunatly the fun factor has totally been stripped from Fifa 08. It is actually boring to play a game which lasts about 15 mintues, regardless of what game settings you have it on. I really am not surprised there are so many used copies available, (75 used today). Utter disappointment and the creators should be ashamed. Tut tut disgraceful.

Summary: i love this game, but...
Comment: I am a massive fan of EA games and the fifa series.Fifa 08 is one of the best games that i own,but to be honest with you,i think it's getting to the point,where EA are focusing more on the ps3 and xbox 360, as there seems to be a lot more that you can do on the newer consoles. However i still love this game,and would recommend it to anyone.
:D 5 stars

Summary: Had to buy it twice as my play keeps scratching the cd
Comment: Yes, it was that good i had to buy it again as my play just loves to scratch the cd, it goes into overburn.
The controls are much better than 04, but the game still lacks something. it takes ages to finish a season, transfering players could be better

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 including Be A Pro which challenges you to play the role of a single player through a whole season or career. 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.
