Im in the US Air Force here at Keesler, and this game is getting me through my day. The mananger mode is just like the console versions, and Be a Pro is also very fun. Take it from an airman, this game is well worth the buy if your on the go and like soccer.
If Your A Soccer Fan, Buy It! October 20, 2008

Graphically, the game is very similar to last year's FIFA Soccer 08. That being said, subtle yet great improvements have been made in the area of gameplay. A few examples include: 1) Where as before you could take the ball across the entire field with maybe two or three passes at most and score, the "AI" is much better at defending. It now requires much more creativity on your part to score, 2) a player will now tire out and slowdown during matches impacting his in-game performance, 3) the game now takes into account an individual player's physical attributes into consideration during tackles. In summary, graphically the same is similar to last-year,s', most of the subtle yet great improvements were made in the area of gameplay. If your a soccer fan, get the game, it's alot of fun.
