It could be "We're going to win by four goals!" or "We're going to limit them to three shots on goal." Each one is assigned a point value from one to four, with the higher point values being riskier. Before every match, your manager is forced to pick one of three statements before the game. This mode has some neat arcade-like additions in Manager Moments and Game Boosters. From there, you can begin your quest for soccer domination and play through a season's worth of games. You pick a team from any number of leagues and then assume the role of the manager. It is basically a light-hearted version of any kind of Owner or Manager Mode in other sports games. All of them work fine (my preference is to the Classic controller), but the Wii Remote and Nunchuk combo uses motion controls to shoot and slide tackle, which isn't as precise as a button press.įIFA 10's premier mode is the new Battle for Glory mode. Players can use any Wii controller setup they want. When you play with friends, this is a fun diversion from the regular gameplay. In lower difficulties, this makes it a lot easier to score during these moments against the computer. Still, there are aspects that are very arcade-like.įor example, the set pieces (corners, penalties, free-kicks) are transformed into simple reaction-based mini-games in which players must shake the Wii Remote, or flick an analog stick if you play with a Classic controller, at the correct time to perform well. You still play with all the standard rules and regulations, and you won't be able to get away with slide tackling everyone. But don't let the art style fool you this game is still a realistic soccer experience.
The Wii version has a new cartoony art style that is evident the second you look at the box art.
However, FIFA on Wii has been undergoing an arcade-like transformation similar to Madden, and this year's edition is an awesome mix of the typical FIFA sim-like experience and a less serious arcade game. As a long-time fan of the arcade soccer genre, FIFA's simulation-heavy experience has never appealed to me. My experience with FIFA games has been limited.
