And thats something FIFA cant show in his defending character. Take John Terry for example, John Terry is more of a steal and interception kinda guy, not a one-on-one dogfighter defender. Example: Spain and Barca defender, the young Gerrard Pique, big tall guy, with big feet, defends excellently in FIFA, and he is a good defender in real life, so where does the issue lie? I’ll explain. There’s a whole lot of tactics and mentality involved in defending. Again, defending in real life football is not all about speed and agility. Now, lets talk about the defending in FIFA 2011. Look at all their games, they market them through bogus trademarked features with cool names, without any real depth, just over-the-top nonsense. Its like its mandatory that you should always sprint. And theres a reason why I’ve noticed all hardcore FIFA players use the Sprint button 100% of the time they spend playing. Now thats something what I call a flawed ‘heart of the game’. Drogba is such a great scorer, but if you have him in FIFA you cant really do much, thats because his Speed stats are low, thus he cant run fast. See this is all, it depends on, STATS, which are very shallow if I had to mention. In FIFA 11, have a player that runs fast, has good shooting stats, thats it, can score goals to glory. Now, take David Villa for example, Villa scores through dummy runs, draws defenders, and also through his excellent vision in positioning. they just have good Shoot stats, which is incorrect and is not congruent to the real situation. These players are bulky and swear by their physique and strength for goalscoring. There’s more to it than just getting the visuals right. They might look exactly like they actually look, their animations might be perfectly motion-captured, but I’m not talking about that. Players in FIFA 2011 are not even close to their real life counterparts. Maximum number of goals scored in FIFA 2011 is by playing through passes to your wingers! You hit a through pass when you see your winger is open, and ZOOM, your wingers past all defenders and all you need to do is a simple drive to score. You learn the tricks, do them at the right time, bang, you’re past the defender, it couldn’t get any easier. Its not a game in which you can build and develop yourself in. Also, almost all the goals in FIFA 11 look just the same.

With FIFA 11, the deal is, you play 30 games, and then you’ll know exactly how to score, the exact spots from where to shoot. They just sound cool, but they dont really portray themselves truly into the game, as in, dont justify what they’re intended to do.

For example, what do I have to say about FIFA’s trademarked features such as Pro Passing? Its just a gimmick but offers nothing new. In the long run, you realize that all these ultra-marketed features are just gimmicks, and what you need in a game is solid mechanics and deep gameplay, which can grow on you. FIFA excels when it comes to graphics, a close to reality tele experience, great sound (Pro Evo cant even come close to FIFA on this), commentary, licensing, online play, support etc.

‘The Features’, except a few minor improvements in mechanics, mainly influenced/copied by the PES mechanics. FIFA 11, just like FIFA 10, 09, 08, is a game with all the bells and whistles i.e.

Personally, I’ve been a little sceptical about FIFA since FIFA 99, so I might be a tad little opinionated.
