Get closer to the action than ever before by mastering the skills required to play like a real Soccer player in FIFA 08. Step into the boots of a professional player through a new mode called ?Be A Pro: Co-op Season? that challenges you to master the same disciplines as a real professional football player?from positioning and tackling to reading the field and passing. Step onto the field with your created player to play an entire game as that footballer, and develop him into an elite player over the course of the season. Never before have you been able to approach the game this way, improving your abilities one skill at a time just as if you were a pro. Play with up to three friends playing all fixed to their players on your favorite club, complete individual challenges to develop your player attributes and win glory for the squad, while competing with your friends to develop the best player by season's end. From the moment you step on the pitch, FIFA 08 challenges you to think and react like a real football 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. Take ultimate control over your defenders with new manual controls that enable you to use the right-stick to quickly switch defenders and choose exactly who you want to control when defending. 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 teamma

Awesome game - best Fifa game so far!

Fifa 08 is definitely better than its predecessors and very different than Fifa 07. The gameplay has been made more realistic by the addition of new moves like directed through ball and directed crossing. Is it hard to score from outside the penalty area? Yes, but not impossible. You just have to train yourself to shoot, adding the right amount of topspin, backspin etc to be more effective. Everything comes with practice and experience! And if you are playing this game on PC, a keyboard is hopeless: you really need a USB gamepad (like the logitech Rumblepad) in order to benefit fully from all the available controls.

Admittedly, there are some bugs in FIFA 08, like when the commentator states that the keeper made a wonderful save when the ball clearly went out for a goal kick. My hope is that these will be corrected for in FIFA 09. Compared to FIFA 07, the artificial intelligence in FIFA 08 is improved, CPU team players seemed to have increased awareness to defend or press on, depending on the score, as you play in increasingly higher difficulty levels. I have to say FIFA 08 at some point became too easy for me, even at the world class difficulty level.

Playing FIFA 08 online is also a great experience, as long as your internet speed is ok.

Yep, you have to hit the training ground in order to survive FIFA 08, there is no denying that! It is the hardest FIFA game produced so far.

Since you are currently getting a new game for less than $[...], there is no reason why you shouldn't give it a try.

WHAT CAN I SAY...?

I play FIFA since 1994 and could not stop buying the yearly edition, so, I am not the best to write a review since I never tried other soccer games but also, not willing to do it. I simply love FIFA and since I grew up no much time to meet my folks, the ONLINE is my new tool to get at least 3 matches a day...

AI engine is not that bad, but could be better. Players movements could seem a little ridged and shoudl improve. Features like chat during game and vote to leave a bad connection game still missing from newers versions. I hope to see more in the next edition.. more soccer, lets podcast and others not in-game features.

FIFA 08 is a great game!!!

Well, first, the shipping was excellent. Then, the game's great. It's always better to play it with a gamepad, but the keyboard works fine as well.

Awesome

Love FIFA 08. It gets better every year, this is one of the best versions I have seen so far. Can't wait for 09
