FIFA 12 Video - Man City vs. Barcelona

I thought the Barca guy was just as bad with the pass-initiate run-pass back-repeat. I love the responsiveness of FIFA but absolutely hate the movement. It's way to quick, hectic, and free at times. You shouldn't be able to turn on a dime like the user with Iniesta did about 3-4 times in a row. What's the point of playing with Barca if you can't get the most of Xavi whom this guy had on the wing making runs. The game is so fast that it strips it of the physicality. Not once did someone receive a ball in the midfield under any type of real pressure because the user can one-touch pass and place it perfectly. I didn't even see one foul.

I don't know if I want to drop $60 because of licenses.

It looks like FIFA 11. Shame on you EA.

I agree. Doesn't look very different at all but I will reserve judgment until I play the demo.

You nailed it KG. The only reason that bothers me in PES12 are the licenses. I think I'm gonna go with PES 12 this year, and use edit files. It looks very unrealistic to me. Too bad, graphics is really nice in FIFA.

Hmmm, not really impressed but I will still wait till the 13th to see what FIFA 12 plays like.

I've never played online but if this is how the majority of the world plays the game, I will continue to keep to myself. I just hope manager mode is fun again.

You should try online play.

I'd say 7/10 of the people are like that, but there are some who actually know the game, and make it very realistic. Whenever I find somebody like that I add them. So now I have a bunch of "FIFA friends" and if I want to play online I will usually just send one of them an invite. It's nice to play against a human every now and then

Just looking at it i dont see enough change in there to warrant buying a new game after i just got Fifa 11 a couple months ago. And this video was not good to showcase because the speed was way too fast and all they did was 1-2 pass the whole time. As someone else said, if this is how people play online then i'll stick to offline games.

Typo? I'm thinking 9.7/10.
