Fifa 18
SCORE: 65
Hopefully you enjoyed the video Paul and
Teen Gamer did of Fifa 18. They played it on the PS4. This sub standard
soccer video game is also available on the PS3, PC, Nintendo Switch,
Xbox 360, and Xbox One. The PR and Marketing folks failed Family
Friendly Gaming Universe. They also failed a great many soccer fans with
their pay to win gambling loot boxes.
Fifa 18 has long loading, and a very long installation. Fifa 18 is way
too online heavy. The modes in this sports game are Kick Off, The
Journey, New Career, Ultimate Team, Tournaments, Skill Games, Online
(Seasons, Pro Clubs, Co-op Seasons, Online Friendlys, Live from
Playstation), Settings, Profile, Online Settings, Catalogue, Edit Teams,
Team Sheets, Create Player, and EA Sports Trax.
The offensive music in Fifa 18 can be turned off. How did the ESRB miss
that again? Is EA such a large donor that they get away with not
disclosing information related to content that families used to decide
on a purchase? The default for Fifa 18 was way too hard for me. Then I
found the difficulty adjustment settings so I could actually get near a
goal to try and score.
The graphics continue to be small in Fifa 18. Until we see a goal
celebration, or are in the story mode that many will find offensive. The
announcers in Fifa 18 are good. The soccer action in Fifa 18 felt too
slow to me. I do not feel Fifa 18 is as good as PES 2018.
In my opinion Fifa 18 is worth five dollars brand new. The whole pay to
win concept hurts this game. The game play does not feel as good as PES.
The Journey continues its offensive concepts from last year.
If you are deeply into online gaming, and like to pay to get some
victories then Fifa 18 is the game for you. If you like a good local
multiplayer and good single player soccer video game then spend your
money on PES 2018. Even previous years of PES are better than Fifa 18.
