    3.0 out of 5 stars Not what I expected, November 8, 2007
    Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars 
    The music sucks.

    Great improvement in goalkeeping. Scoring was still a little too easy in '07, but this one makes scoring harder, and therefore, the game is more competitive. Commentary is questionable at times such as "Great save!" when the goalkeeper hasn't even seen the ball!

    Graphics have taken a plunge. The players all look blurry during gameplay. Unlike '07, you can not tell exactly WHO the player is during gameplay. Replays look less realistic, and watching it in slow motion exposes just how awkward was that "great play" you just made. Fouls (yellow and red cards) do look well deserved in replays although you wouldn't think your foul was so bad during actual gameplay.

    Overall, it's the same entertainment as '07, but LESS realistic. Scoring (when you do score) is usually a well placed shot, a good attempt by the goalkeeper, or just pure skill and foolishness on the opponent's part that looks well put together.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Much better..., November 8, 2007
    Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars 
    I don't know what the other guys were talking about FIFA 07 being better, 08 improves on a lot of stuff. The gameplay is NOT the same, defending is much better in this game. Computer aren't that dumb any more and the goalies are a lot better too. The new player switching and goal keeper controls also help out when you learn how to use them. There's also quick free kicks, you can actually push up your goal keepers on corners when you're down a goal. There is widescreen support for this game, I run it at 1440x990. For the person who said he feels auto switching is too slow, you can change the speed in options. FIFA 07 was full of bugs too and it was way too easy to score even on the hardest difficulty.

    Now on to the cons, the game difficulty has been turned up a notch, and it is a lot harder to score, it took me a while to learn how to score on a consistent basis... and there is that bug of when you shoot and miss the commentators think the goalkeeper saved it... but they're minor bugs

    Graphics aren't much improved though

    Overall I feel it is a much more realistic game... soccer usually isn't a high scoring game, and in FIFA 07 goals were way too easy to score

    4.0 out of 5 stars FIFA 08 - going backwards from FIFA 07, October 13, 2007
    By Sonny (Long Island, NY) - See all my reviews
    Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars 
    FIFA 07 PC was a great game and FIFA 08 is almost the same, but takes a step backwards. The graphics are not as good (I don't know why they altered the graphics - the players look like they're wearing phony toupees, and they don't move with the fluidity and realism of FIFA 07). If you want to just watch a game, there is absolutely no scoring - you could watch a fairly realistic game in FIFA 07.
    The manager mode is basically the same, and the press asks you the same managerial questions you've answered a thousand times in FIFA 07 - enough already! How could they not change these questions?
    There seem to be more errors in the gameplay and announcing, and they haven't fixed some of the old ones. In the manager mode, for example - players you loan out to other teams can play against you (they can't do this in the real world).
    When you control a team, the gameplay might be a little better - you probably can't run down the sidelines as much as FIFA 07 (in world class mode), and it's a little tougher to take the ball away from the offense. The "be a pro" technique is fun.
    Overall, it's basically FIFA 07 with lesser graphics and less realistic player motions. At least you get the updated teams and ratings and a few more announcing tidbits from Clive Tyldesley. If you don't want the updated teams, you can probably just stick with FIFA 07, or wait and see if the price goes down on FIFA 08.

    5.0 out of 5 stars 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.
