GamingLives takes a look at the latest FIFA offering from the EA Sports camp.
"Where FIFA games usually concentrate on the club sides, these major-event side releases focus on the national teams and so you are getting less of a game here. There’s no league, cup, or Champions League to worry about. There’s also no transfers or management, and that means no Ultimate Team either."
Licensed games have a habit of being average, forgettable titles curtailed by the expense of their origins. World Cup and UEFA titles are no different with the majority sinking into the oblivion of the middle-ground. There are some exceptions though - here are the very best and very worst World Cup video games.
I've a soft spot for the 2002 world cup game mainly because it was the last time we graced the competition with our presence
19 year-old German Patrick Hadler emulated his countries success at this summer’s World Cup and has the highest margin of victory against a computer on EA SPORTS 2014 FIFA World Cup Brazil on PlayStation®3 - 321 – 0!
James writes - "The latest Xbox Deals With Gold sale is now live and it’s looking very EA orientated! Available right now to all Xbox Live Gold members, the Xbox Deals With Gold for 29th July-4th August 2014 sees discounts in place for a number of EA titles, from shooters to sports games."
Dominates their own (last months) gold deals. These games are old and can be found cheaper elsewhere. (For physical copies)
The Naval Strike maps are well worth picking up and Second Assault. Wouldn't bother with the World Cup game.
