Forums - Gaming - My FIFA 08 Impressions (PS2 version)

yea, yea, so i decided to buy the PS2 version over the Wii version... no biggie...

Anyway moving on what's different,well...:

Through Balls are much harder to do

AI is much better

Doing long normal passes(as in along the ground) is difficult as the AI intercept very well

Switching Players with the right analogue stick takes some getting used to but you can still user L1 so it's all good

Long balls are a lot easier to do

Crossing into the box is a lot harder to do

Controlling your keeper is a nice addition, but takes some getting used to

There are a lot of new tricks-you can now fix the camera on a free kick, so your opponent is unsure where to place their keeper, and you can also do fake throw-ins, so your opponent marks the guy your in control of but you throw it to someone else who is unmarked

The Manager Mode has a training simulator and pre-season friendlies

Be A Pro Mode is quite good but you don't get much time on the ball.

You can do quick-free kicks

You can make your own formations...

Intercepting the ball is easier(thanks to analogue stick switching)

Slide Tackling is easier

Finding an un-marked player is harder...even on this difficulty level(which is the 2nd out of 5)

The commentary is slightly divvy in places, e.g i blasted it over the bar, and the commentary goes,' keeper kept it out.' But itz improved in some ways e.g I shot over the bar as Zambrotta and they said, ''Maybe that's why Zambrotta is a defender'' 

That's it really i've had the game since it came out on the 28th sept and it's pretty good i s'pose...
