The game took some massive strides in providing soccer fans with a game that was easy to learn, fun to play, and addictive as all get out. When I saw FIFA Soccer 10 a few months ago, it played very well, and had some noticeable differences, but I wasn't completely convinced that enough was going to be different about this year's version to warrant a day one purchase. That was then. Now I can tell you that not only does FIFA Soccer 10 improve on what EA Canada did last year, but makes a case for being the finest football game this generation."
FIFA '10 was released to the public last September to huge praises from both critics and fans. It has a score of 90 on Metacritic.com, and current sits as the 26th best rated game for the 360, and the highest rated sports game on the 360. The closest sports game to FIFA '10 on that list is NHL '10, which sits in 46th place (although it won sports game of the year last year for many publications, but don't get me started on that). But my reasons for FIFA '10 being the best sports game ever is not about ratings or rankings. It is about how the game is the best simulation of any sport, ever.

"Its coming home, its coming home, its coming. Footballs coming home!". There ends my in-depth knowledge of the beautiful game. Sure I've played me some school yard footie and I've taken a stab at the odd football game but truly, honestly – football bores me. Paying £40 for a nylon shirt with the name of a Korean firm on the front just strikes me as a little crazy. What does excite me? The World Cup. Every four years comes my excuse to act like "a real man" and embrace the nation's favourite pastime (excluding binge drinking of course!).
