The view is too zoomed in to see all your passing options, even when switching to a wider camera, but a helpful icon shows you which teammate youвЂ™re pointing to before you pass, even if that player is offscreen. On the downside, through passes donвЂ™t lead your teammate very far, and crosses into the penalty box are rarely headed into the net. The ball squirts loose and flies through the air often. While the passing is crisp, thereвЂ™s still plenty happening that makes the action feel organic. Teams donвЂ™t typically possess the ball for more than a few seconds.Дefenders take the ball away easily with a reliable standing tackle or an unrealistically long slide tackle, but offensive players have a few dribbling tricks to offset that, including one where you easily lift the ball into the air. AI defenders rush after the ball all over the field, so youвЂ™ve got to pass and move quickly. Quick, accurate passes and hard shots are the norm. Like the old-school FIFA games, realism is sacrificed for high-speed action here. I donвЂ™t plan on covering much PS1 FIFA, but I read in other reviews that this game is a clear step up from 98 and that 2000 is a clear step back down. Starting with FIFA 96, there are 10 FIFA titles on PS1, but EAвЂ™s focus was on the next generation starting with FIFA 2001 on PS2. It feels at home on PS1, making the most of the consoleвЂ™s power without overdoing it. This action-packed take on soccer strikes a good balance between depth and simplicity.
