Change is Good

I have been playing the FIFA series since Fifa 95 on the Sega Genesis and I have to say that this is the greatest change I have seen from FIFA 07 to FIFA 08 apart from general graphic improvements that come due to technological progress throughout the years. I am very impressed with the new mode that is introduced: Be A Pro Co-op Season Mode. In this mode you chose or create your own player. Decide if he is a defender, forward, or mid-fielder. You control only him on the team and you earn points by completing tasks each game and basically grow your player into a fine footballer! Other than this new change you will find that the game is pretty much the same. Music is new. Graphics are a little better. All other modes are the same as before.

I find that the new mode is really fun if you are actually an amateur soccer player like me because you get to play your own position and maybe see your mistakes and what you should do in a real game.


Major improvement to the series!
