Editorial Reviews:

Amazon.co.uk Review
In a nutshell:
It’s been a national institution for over decade now and the latest FIFA game is finally here, with lots more attacking gameplay, more customisation, more attention to detail, more online and offline multiplayer options and the deepest manager mode ever for the series.

The lowdown:
With Konami’s Pro Evolution Soccer series snapping at its heels with ever more voracity, suddenly it’s FIFA that’s got something to prove. The answer for this year’s edition is a new emphasis on attacking play, with a suite of new tackling, dribbling and shielding controls. Naturally, it’s got all the new stats for the 05/06 season, but with the new create-a-player option you can change the facts to fit you. Also new is a 15 year career manager mode to prove your footballing skills don’t end when you’re off the pitch.

Most exciting moment:
Winning the treble after 15 years of hard graft in the all new career mode.

Since you ask:
According to cover star Wayne Rooney, the FIFA series is popular with many other premiership players, especially when travelling together for away matches.

The bottom line:
The best FIFA game, if not the best football game, ever.
Harrison Dent

Wayne didn't realise falling asleep in a nuclear reactor would have side effects EA were keen to show they were on the ball
More Rooney, here having an existential crisis Wayne to go! I only have eyes for Roo! etc. etc.

4 out of 5 stars Another consistant Fifa game!   February 20, 2007
Jack 'Ultimate gamer!' (Church Stretton, England)
Again we have another Fifa game which is fine, however there isn't that many new things. Yes, it is better than previous Fifa games for the PS2 and yes, the manager mode is slightly different, however for it to be a real classic there needs to be some more stuff thrown in, things which haven't been tried before on a football game.

I would stick to Fifa 07 for the PSP, this game does have new things on it. But, this is a very good game, the best Fifa so far (apart from 07) but if you are considering buying it, don't. get the in date version (Fifa 07). 8/10



5 out of 5 stars Good game could of improved   November 17, 2006
Dr. Philip Razzell
when i first got the game i thought the graphics were good and the animations were to. but i find it annoyingly hard to score with the tricky gameplay but the game authentic as usual and the keppers actually dive properly and when you do score they are usually good goals overall good game


2 out of 5 stars FIFA sinks further into poor gameplay....   October 29, 2006
WhoIzzet (Portsmouth, Hants, UK)
I, like many people, enjoy football, and indeed, football games. However, FIFA 06 nearly put me off the genre for life...

Let's start with the good points. There is the obvious factor that draws most people in: The incredible amount of teams, leagues and players. EA deserve a pat on the back for another great database. Also, a good commentary team, as John Motson was beginning to get a little bit irritating beforehand. There are some good extras too, especially the add-on of FIFA 94.

Now for the bad points. The gameplay is horrific. It seems that EA have tried to cut down on the amount of dribbling time a player has. Unfortunately, now you have none. It is literally passing the ball as much as possible, and you still end up having it intercepted. What's more, no matter how many chances you have, the opposition will only need one chance to score, and it's always off the rebound. This was all on semi-pro mode, so I switched to amatuer for a bit. Unbelievably easy. There's no happy medium.

The graphics aren't great either. I don't know what all the hype was about.

In conclusion, you're much better of getting FIFA 07, which has considerably improved on this game.



4 out of 5 stars fifa 2006 thoughts!!   August 11, 2006
Mr. J. A. Reynolds (Nottingham)
as a big fan of this franchise it is one of the best to date but I would like to see a proper transfer system within the game which is more realistic to the actual premiership/game. The lower divisions though could do with improving the player faces as the upper leagues do so.
Hope to see an improvement on this in the 2007 version



1 out of 5 stars Awful   August 7, 2006

Terrible terrible game. No multiplayer in career mode, gameplay is awful compared to 2005. Don't really know what they were thinking, graphics are cool, but would definitely not recommend the game overall. I've heard some dirty brits say there is a game called Pro Evo that is a lot cooler.
