The Bottom Line:

"Best in series"

This year the FIFA series is completed with the all-new FIFA Football 2005. This year's game is a great experience for everybody who would like to play a real soccer sim. Previous titles of FIFA have been very good, but this year EA sports is really outstanding. The gameplay is even better than in the past and the football fun and experience is improved with a very important feature: the first touch. It's a new way to control the ball even better and to pass perfectly in order to score. The creation of a new player has also improved and the leagues are two more than the 2004 version. It also seems that a new player reaction and growth is something that will interest us this year. However, the season mode is not such user-friendly as it could be. The managing years have changed from 5 to 15 and the visual sim is good asit is the player growth. Apart from the first touch control, the game on the field has improved. The off the ball-control continues to be right and some improvements are made with the free kicks.

This is a game which will be remembered for a long time. I strongly recommend it!
