Fifa 10
Game Description
After the critical and commercial success of last years FIFA Soccer 09, EA Sports is back with FIFA Soccer 10. Not one to rest on their laurels, EA Sports has promised that this version of the game will raise the bar even higher as they set out to create the greatest virtual soccer ever on the Xbox 360.
This year’s FIFA will feature a slew of new animations and gameplay changes to make the player feel like he or she is in control of a living, breathing professional soccer player. Many of the gameplay fundamentals have been altered to have a more realistic and refined feel to them. Instead of the in-game players on the field having the same temperament throughout an entire soccer game; their emotions will change with the action. If the goal keeper is blocking shots, he will have a sense of urgency about him. On defense positioning, in-game players will cover specific positions and on attack positioning they will realistically base their actions on the ball’s movement. Sliding and standing tackles have been improved drastically in this FIFA 10 so they will be more effective.
When it comes to animations and AI, you’ll find that goal keepers will come out and challenge whoever is approaching the goal. In addition, goal keepers will have the ability to make secondary saves. If they block a shot and it doesn’t work the first time, they can recover and try again. Defensive AI will also be more aggressive and reflexive when trying to prevent the offense from scoring. Defending has been improved so that higher rated defenders have a better reach and avoid fouling the opposition while a better effort gives defenders more options when attempting to get to the ball before an attacker and you can also throw your defender in front of the ball to block shots.
In FIFA 10, shots and manager mode have also been dramatically improved. Increased shot types, improved physics and plenty of gameplay refinements can be found when playing this game. Over 50 improvements to the core components of manager mode have been implemented. Simulated match results and transfers will be more realistic and authentic. Unlike FIFA 09, any player cannot move to any club this year. Player development is also going to be more realistic in manager mode too.
These are just some of the many new features in FIFA 10 for the Xbox 360. Avid followers of this long-time franchise will be glad to see how much hard work has been put into this title. With all of these improvements and additions, FIFA 10 is sure to satiate soccer fan’s appetites for virtual soccer action on the Xbox 360.
