Good Player Roster, Graphics, but Poor Controls and Gameplay,
I’m a big fan of the EA Big Street series. I’m also a huge fan of soccer. I was pumped to play this game.
Unfortunately I am underwhelmed. The game play seems a bit lame and static compared to what you would expect from the street series. Most of this comes from controls that are not responsive. The point of the game is to beat your opponent with wild dribble moves. Unfortunately when the opponent uses a move on you, you literally lose control of your player while the animation shows your guy getting schooled. The soccer AI in this game is so poor that none of your other players can be counted on to help out your stranded teammate.
I just don’t see a lot of replay value in this as the controls and gameplay are so static and frustrating.
Also disappointing is the fact that when you create a new team to play through the single player mode, your team is ranked at level 13 and your first opponent is level 25. I played ten matches and won only once because my players are hopelessly outclassed.
Some redeeming qualities of the game… there is a huge roster of real life soccer stars from several countries. Fans of European soccer will be happy to see Beckham, Henry, Totti, Ronaldo, Ronaldinho, etc. Unfortunately, if your favorite star does not come from one of the dozen featured countries, forget about finding him in the game, which means no Schevchenko, Van Nistelrooy, Ljungberg, and none of the Greeks who won last year’s Euro Tournament.
The graphics in this game are very nice. The players look stylish and are dead-ringers for the real players. The environments are decent looking too.
The lack of XBox Live play is absolutely unforgivable in a sports title of this nature. This is a terrible oversight.
In the end, I cannot recommend FIFA Street to anyone besides the most avid of soccer fans, and even then, don’t expect to get a lot of replay value out of this.

|Awesome Game!,
At first i thought this game was going to be a little ridiculuos and forced from the EA BIG title series. However, upon buying the game i found it not only to be extremely fun, but exciting, great-looking and an over all great game. BETTER THAN ANY OTHER STREET GAME!
