Console Obsession says: "Following in the footsteps of EA’s very own Fight Night Champion from 2011, FIFA 17 introduces a story mode to the series for the very first time. The Journey, as it’s called, is easily the headline feature of this year’s game, and it’s a mode that has obviously had a lot of effort put into it. While the Frostbite engine's graphical improvements aren't always obvious, at others times the impressive enhancements can be easily seen. Fictional player Alex Hunter (played by Tomiwa Edun) is the promising young star that The Journey mode spotlights; he’s a third generation footballer, so the sport is obviously in his blood. The events of the story begin with Hunter as an 11-year-old boy, highlighting his early football skills as well as the stormy marriage of his parents and his difficult relationship with his father."
Like all great photographs, the covers of the FIFA and Pro Evolution Soccer video games capture a moment in time. But which ones have been best?
Richard writes: "It would be fair to say that Martin Korda may not be the first name that springs to mind when thinking of video game writers.
However, a quick look through his credits and you will see he is responsible for such stories as The Journey on FIFA 17 and 18, Destiny: The Taken King and Fable: The Journey as well as an impressive back-catalogue. You may then start to understand why we were so keen to sit down and have a chat with him at the Yorkshire Games Festival:"
Some of the best games to play are soccer (football, for our non-American friends). When you're looking for one of the best video games for team sports, and multiplayer play, look no further than the soccer game genre. The world of soccer video games is dominated by two heavy hitters: FIFA and PES (Pro Evolution Soccer). These two game developers keep pushing each other to have better characterization, crisper graphics, and a stronger gameplay engine. As a result, the real winner is the gamer. Let's look at both and see which is best.
