However, this still remains a game for the casual soccer fan rather than the serious footie fanatic.Īs with most games from EA Sports, FIFA 2005 looks drop dead gorgeous.
#DOWN FIFA 2005 SERIES#
The 2005 edition takes some important steps in the right direction: it's not soccer nirvana - and it's still not nearly as good as Konami's classic Winning Eleven series on the PS2 or PC, but it's certainly the best FIFA in four of five years. The FIFA series from EA Sports has been treading water, quality wise, for a few years due to its arcade slant and less-than-realistic gameplay. Once again, online play is supported for Internet-connected gamers. Like past versions, FIFA Soccer 2005 offers one of the most complete roster selections of any sports game available, and includes more than 12,000 real-life players in over 350 licensed teams and leagues from around the world. The game's career mode has expanded to involve more management activities, in the office as well as on the field.

Introduced in the previous year's edition of the game, FIFA's "off the ball control" returns, and has been enhanced to allow new moves in more situations. Among the new and improved features in this year's game are the "first touch" system, designed to give expert players more control by allowing split-second, one-off passes and more improvisational teamwork. EA Sports' celebrated soccer series returns to home computers in this "2005" edition.
