Review: FIFA 11 Mobile
Another year, another rendition of the FIFA franchise on console, portable and PC.
Running on basically the same graphics system and gameplay style as its recent predecessors, we thought that FIFA 11 on the mobile platform was very much the same bit of steak and potatoes as practically all of the games in the franchise. However, FIFA 11 has some rather drastic changes that did raise some eyebrows.
First off, the controls are pretty awkward, moving around with the d-pad feels rather clumsy. And the in-game targeting system really doesn’t help either. It tries to make the game easier by automatically targeting to the 'best' player to pass to, depending on your direction. This usually ends up with a fumble and you're so easily blocked by members of the opposing team its not funny.
As far as modes are concerned, you have a wide choice of gameplay modes to choose from, from Friendly matches to the Virtual Pro mode, where you sort of grow a single player.
Graphics wise, the game hasn't quite changed much from the previous title, but considering the game is played from top-down, there really isn't much room for improvement and neither are the graphics too small to see whats going on either, so its pretty good as it is.
As a whole, the game does cater well to FIFA fans, but the dissapointing controls might put most off
