Review of FIFA 15(PS3, 360, Xbox One, PS4)

Okay guys! I review yet another entry into EA's annual series of football (or Soccer) games, so can this game sprint past the defence? or will Aguero be called offside? let's find out!

This game is pretty simple at it's core, pick a team, pick a mode and/or opponent and take to the stadium! The accessibility scores are as follows:

Visibility 10
This game is quite accessible, when playing online, the player you are currently controlling is indicated by a cursor over his head.  Players on the opposing team on the other hand will have their xbox live gamertags/psn IDs on top of their heads.  Also through the kit selection screen, you should be able to select a players colour (not of the skin variety! - THAT'S RACIST!!! *ding*)

Audibility 9
There is little need for subtitles, but the lack of subtitles during commentary can be a bit of a pain for hearing impaired players.

Mobility 10
Like previous entries in the series, you can customize your own control scheme.  Great Job EA! (Top right corner like boss - AGUEROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! Manchester United fans you have our sympathy *ding*)

Gameplay 6
At time of this game's release, FIFA Ultimate Team (FUT) was a big thing over the internet, why was that?

Youtube

There were numerous personalities who made a living from making youtube videos on ultimate team.  KSI, Miniinter (Simon), Wroetoshaw (Harry) and Twosync (Chris and Mat) to name a few.  How did they accomplish this?

Sponsorships

There is sites dealing with ultimate team currency (ultimate team coins) people used to pay as low as£20 for 1 million coins (Dr Evil from Austin Powers cliche *ding*) which was the price of, according to KSI, over 200 gold packs (if coins were used to open the packs).  But, currently, this is no longer active in the game.  EA has gone after coin traders by banning FIFA coin traders and gamertags/IDs (depending on your platform) associated with coin traders because of accusations of coin farming.  This turned a lot of people away from FIFA for a while (especially youtubers - like Kenzie "N7" Retro - who is scribing this review for me) to play Pro Evolution Soccer (PES) which is developed and published by Konami (who treated Hideo - oh wait).  The big reason for the temporary ship jump was because of price ranges.

For those who aren't aware of what these are, price ranges are in place to prevent players from being sold below or above a certain amount.  Let's take Lionel Messi for example on FIFA 15.  His minimum selling price at the time of this review is 1 million coins (stay away from us Dr Evil *ding*) and his maximum is 1.5 million.

1 million sins for that! (cinemasins cliche *ding*)


Overall score - 87.5%

Overall an accessible game, however, mostly due to the mistreat AND BETRAYAL (halo cliche *ding*) of the players, coin traders AND FIFA youtubers, this dragged the score to the ground! (sorry EA fanboys, red card for diving)

Final sin count 1000006
SENTENCE - 24 kill streak (hardline noob!)


see you in the next review - segafan1990 & kenzie "n7" retro out!
