Description:
With tightened passing, more options, and greater customization, FIFA Soccer 2002 is sure to please any soccer fanatic. Following the format of the hugely popular series, FIFA Soccer 2002 includes everything you've come to expect from Electronic Arts in a soccer game. Broken down in a number of areas, you have the chance to either join in the action straightaway in the form of a friendly match, challenge yourself over a season, enter a knockout tournament, or even tackle the World Cup. As with previous versions of the game, the gameplay and graphics are very impressive. And this is a soccer game in which you have to think about your state of play rather than simply rushing down the left wing and popping the ball in the back of the net. With more than 16 national licensed leagues, including leagues in Germany, Brazil, and, of course, England, the game offers the opportunity to play with your favorite team. Failing that, you can always build your own team through the use of a player and team editor and see how it fares against the likes of Manchester United. This is more than just a kick around the park; this is the ideal soccer game for people looking for some thought rather than pure on-the-ball action. --Jason Denwood
