Advantages: Good Game, More than 500 teams, Good use of dual screens Disadvantages: Graphics
I purchased Fifa 06, as i enjoy playing football games and expected this game to be good looking at videos and reading reviews.
When it came home, i was happy that it was a good game when i played it.
I liked that it featured many teams from different countries and different leagues including the english championship lower divisions as well as the Premiership. There is different modes which you can play including: career, ... ...off.
Another good point about this game is that you can play with game with single or multi cartridge which means that if your friend doesnt have this game, you can still play wireless, however the options are limited compared to if you play with mutli-cards.

I liked that it featured many teams from different countries and different leagues including the english championship lower divisions as well as the Premiership. There is different modes which you can play including: career, challenges, season and tournament including the quick and simple kick off.
Another good point about this game is that you can play with game with single or multi cartridge which means that if your friend doesnt have this game, you can still play wireless, however the options are limited compared to if you play with mutli-cards.
One of the best things in the game is that you use both screens in the game. The top screen displays the action whilst the bottom touch screen displays the postions of each player and the field.

The features of the game such as the menus, the sound, the commentary and soundtrack are quite good as they blend with the action of the football.
Advantages: great for handheld gaming, graphics at a high standard for the DS, great multiplayer modes and lots to keep you occupied Disadvantages: lacks some of the capabilities that the conscoles such as the PS2 or xbox offer and touch screen is rarely used.
...was anything like the previous FIfa games it was sure to be worthwhile so i took a chance and took it home to test it out.
Graphics & use of Screens
when i started playing it the graphics were much better than anticipated and were of a good standard for a handeheld console. However it makes the pitch and stadiums seem much smaller and the players sem enclosed.
The two screens for the DS are utilised fairly well. The top screen shows all the action ... ...and the placement of you and your opponent. When entering the field management option you can also drag the player's to the position you want them to field in from now on. Whilst none of this is revolutionary, it is very practical, and having such a detailed view of the ground is very helpful when deciding where to pass to. When a goal is scored you're also able to use the bottom screen to navigate the replay, which let's you control the replay completely. ...
