FIFA 08 challenges players to master the skills required to play like a professional football player. Fans around the world can experience the same highs and lows of real-world players and tackle the challenges they face on a daily basis. Players are now aware of their surroundings, reacting authentically to threats and opportunities to make intelligent decisions. Now with the FIFA 08 shooting system you can enjoy even more control and precision in front of the goal to become a true marksman.
For the first time ever, fans playing FIFA 08 will face the pressure to improve their game that real-world players endure every day. A new play mode called 'Be A Pro' locks you in the role of a single player and challenges you to master the same disciplines as a real professional player-from positioning and tackling to reading the field and passing. FIFA 08 now gives every football fan the chance to perform pro skills with a true next-generation organic 'building-block' system. You can combine tricks and skill moves together to recreate signature moves from the real-world superstars or define your own style of play.
In addition, FIFA 08 is dramatically more real and exhilarating with the inclusion of 620 licensed teams, 30 official leagues, and more than 15,000 players.

Its not as quick as pro evo, and the touch isnt as good
Though the online play is much much better
And of course the number of teams and licensing etc
Also the create a player should go back to how it was, all you can create is an average 55 player
Co-op is so boring!!

This is a good game. Personally I like it better than Pro Evo because of the real teams, players ect. It is realistic in the sense that every game is a challenging up to a point. The only problem for me is the Co-op season thing. Why can't you simulate a couple of matches? It is so time consuming, having to play every match!!
A Realistic game

On the Whole the game is quite realistic and it becomes addictive once you start to play. It is not that easy to score but it makes sense since in real life not every attack results in a goal. I recommend it to first time buyers because it is agood gaming experience. Manager Mode is very good apart from the fact that the board demands high expectation especially when it comes to buying players and the financial situation,.
