Fifa 17
SCORE: 70
Fifa 17 is a prime example of the extreme radical liberalization of the video game industry. Fifa 17 shoves female teams in our faces, and only allows us to play a black player in The Journey. I love how these companies claim they are all about choice, and they deny us the ability to play a white character in the story mode. Or a Hispanic, or Asian character for that matter. Why can’t we select who we want to be? Why shove one thing down our throats?
Fifa 17 took forever to install. Why can’t we just play this soccer game from the disc? Another choice we are being denied. I turned off the gross music in Fifa 17. Thankfully it can all be turned off in one place. The announcers are okay in Fifa 17. This game has a very European flavor to it. In fact there was little in Fifa 17 that appealed to me as an American.
The passing is now broken in Fifa 17. What is it with EA Sports this year? It is like they are breaking everything in their sports games. Maybe that is why their PR and Marketing department failed us so miserably. They probably do not want to hear the graphics stay small in Fifa 17 either. The lack of options in Fifa 17 dismayed me. The Journey is interesting if you feel like playing a dark storyline with all kinds of trauma. Why can’t they give the main character two loving and caring parents? Like the ones Tim Tebow has.
The ball control feels loose, and penalty kicks are really lame in Fifa 17. Fifa 17 is light on options. We have The Journey, Career, Ultimate Team, Kick Off, Tournament and Skill Games. There is also the Internet draining online section of Fifa 17. I feel this year is a real let down. If I were to price Fifa 17 I would say it is worth between ten to fifteen dollars brand new. Release prices are way over inflated.
Lets be real concerning Fifa 17. Soccer is not that big of a sport in America. We are not the audience. Soccer nuts may get into Fifa 17. I have enjoyed soccer games before, just not this one.
