So, this is what it feels like to be a professional footballer. Scythed down by a spaghetti-legged David Luiz, I lock eyes with each individual player, and place a gleaming ball upon Anfield’s hallowed turf. Turning a full 180 to admire the Kop, I gaze up to the cloudless sky and then back down to the ball. It looks glorious. A shame then, that the resulting free kick is as graceful as Peter Crouch on rollerskates, fizzing straight into the wall and bobbling over the touchline for a throw. Ironically though, this might just be the most accurate description of FIFA’s maiden voyage into the world of Wii U – aesthetically accomplished, awkward in execution.
Games Asylum: "Outdated football games are a common sight when scouring jumble sales, car boots and charity shops for bargain price video games. Entire shelves filled with decade-old FIFA and PES games spread across a dozen formats. Often they end up in bargain bins, sitting alongside unwanted celebrity fitness DVDs and seemingly random TV show box sets. But here’s the thing. Not all football games gathering dust in the likes of Oxfam are in fact worthless."
Just who is buying FIFA 13 on Wii U? We may never know, but there are more people buying that than there are Bayonetta 2 and Sonic Boom: Rise of Lyric.
are seriously trying to downplay Bayonetta 2 with sales
In Fails of the Weak #210, Jack and Geoff bring you fails in Sniper Elite 3, FIFA 13, Sportsfriends, Destiny, Halo: Reach, and FIFA 14.
Sounds good. It seems like the only real gripes they had was that it needed some time to get used to.
I will check this game out. I might buy it early next year sometime.
LOL
"The first real ‘Wow’ moment comes with the aforementioned Lift and Look feature, as directing the GamePad at your television gives you a full 360-degree view of the stadium during set pieces. Granted, it strays into gimmick territory-"
>Yes,
'cause when a video game makes me say, "WOW" it is clearly a gimmick and something that I want taken out of the game.
I agree (with Shackdaddy) it boils down to them needing to get used to the controls.
Still, the WiiU additions and extra modes don't "waterdown" the game (it just adds more ways to play. and I am sure Kinects will have 'family' modes).
BUT if you don't like the WiiU Touchscreen Functions- Use the other controller without the Touchscreen.
FIFA13 this year with the Kinect and WiiU functions...
sounds fooking amazing and genius if you ask me
