Game Rating: 4.0/5.0

This year’s FIFA Soccer 10 has remarkably improved, with added new features that are sure to make this year’s game, the best in the series. The 360 dribbling system, the ability to upload your face and the chance to play against hundreds of virtual pros players online.

360 degree dribbling system is an amazing feature added to this year’s game. With the left analogue stick you’re able to move your player in 360 degrees, move the ball around with ease, around tough situations that were impossible in previous years.

The commentators: Andy Gray and Clive Tilsley, do a naturally magnificent job, I’m not a soccer follower, so I was surprise on how these two try to liven up the game, with funny chit-chats, observations and nice, play by play.

The online aspect offers up plenty to do. From the typical ranked head-to-head matches, you can also join up with nine other players for team play and you can even link up with nine other Virtual Pros and form your own club. I didn’t notice any lag during online games when I played.

Graphic wise: the game looks great, with nice detail to some huge soccer stadiums, and conditions, including some very realistic looking rain. Many of the kicks, and movement’s of the players on the field all look great and fluid. It’s a combination of factors that go into making the current FIFA feel: realistic passing animations, smooth ball physics, convincing shooting.

This year ‘Be a Pro’ mode allows you to create your own player and play entire seasons with your favorite team. You can even upload your face and download it to your console. Basically implementing your height and weight and style, ultimately making you feel as if you’re playing the game, or rather how you’ll look as a player on the field.
