Whistle: football really becomes

Surely FIFA 09 was one of the best football games we remember. We expected that in the field we saw a slight evolution of what was a great simulation last year. But no, EA Sports has gone further and gives us that, for now, is the most perfect football simulator we've seen so far.

The first big change is the animation system always hitherto affected the game. And is that the animation system did make the game much slower, more predictable. In this FIFA 10 has not lowered the technical level, but it has become more natural and now players will not only see where they go their peers, but focus passes a touch that never had seen so far in FIFA.

But then, not only that, but we also have the most tactical. In the menu system we have a lot of options to customize the tactics to satiety. The best thing about this is that it is perfectly reflected in the field. If we say that intercept passes, they will, if they need more positional, they change completely to cover the gaps.

More important defense is the fact that now it has created a support system which covers positions in advance. We are not referring to the fact that two players will by carrying the ball, but now cover passing lanes. Although you can choose to provide that pressure, it is more than possible that we end up with a goal against, because the opposing team maximizes the chances of a hole.

And with this we turn to attack. FIFA 10 has opted for a realistic about the attack. And we also mean realistically difficult. Forget FIFA where these score a goal was very, very easy. Here we must have patience and spend, spend, spend until we find the gap or the failure of the defense.

Of course, influences the quality of the team and players. Not the same one match with Real Zaragoza with FC Barcelona, ​​but it is true that parties change and nothing is impossible. Let it serve as an example of realism, the developers have gotten a system in which the opposing team thinks against whom or who is game history. For example, if we play with FC Barcelona against Real Madrid, we will see a tremendous game open. But if we play against a team such as Xerez, the latter tends to close lines, which makes it complicated to score goals.

This approach might not only been applied to equipment, but also leagues. For example, playing against an Italian team is playing against a defense up to 6 players (4 defenders and two pins), but instead, if we play against an English team, we have to adapt our game to meet the bands and, especially, the long ball.

FIFA 10 has had all of this and much more, it then goes to the most basic level, the player. And is that the players have been completely redesigned. They have their own skills and EA Sports has given personality. We see you move like, haggle same or equal position themselves how they behave on the pitch.

Two examples: Cristiano Ronaldo before a failure puts legs at an angle and take a breath in a very distinct lack before shooting. We will see perfectly on pitch. And in the case of Barcelona, ​​we can see that peculiar Alves gets run before launching his missile.

Finally, before moving on to the technical aspects, we have to say that control of the game has improved a lot. One problem was the famous delay could sometimes accidentally give two passes. That has been minimized to the maximum, but has not disappeared.

The technical aspect
FIFA has always been a franchise in highlighting the graphics. FIFA 10 is an incredible improvement over its predecessor, but it has been polished details such as animations that are much more natural and fast, so the game is infinitely more dynamic.

As in any FIFA have respected the most of the actual kits. Not only in colors but also in advertising that is real we can see in the players at the pitch of a real game.

It is also true that all stages are clones of their actual facilities. Mind you, not all, but serve as a curiosity that when we choose a team like ours, if not the stadium, we can choose a similar one and rename it, something that is much appreciated.

The player models have been improved once again, with a lighting system that also makes them more realistic. Yes, still not all, but EA Sports will be updated gradually.

What about the sound? Precisely here we are a little disappointed. First, because the fantastic videos we teach the advanced techniques of the game are translated, but it bent and then because there are repetitions of comments last year left over.

Yes, we know that repeat the comments, but listen to our usual FIFA commentators, Martin Tyler and Gonzalez, Barcelona have two European Cups, when now 3, means that that comment has not been reviewed. Apart from that, commentators are predicting good plays.

Our opinion
FIFA 10 is the best football game you can buy now. It is, without question, the most complete in options, both online and offline, but it also has polished simulation details about the field that he needed both. We have also added options and advanced tactical Manager Mode has been remodeled to offer a more realistic experience.

Do you have flaws? Yes, of course, but interestingly the biggest flaw is found in the comments of Martin Tyler and Gonzalez, who seem to repeat last year. That and that this is a really tough football game.
