Re: FIFA 07 (Xbox 360) - Next-gen

Anyone else think the through-ball is a bit too effective and facing very fast players it's far too hard for the defender to keep track of a forward once the ball is played?
As incredible as I think the game is I do agree with this. You play PES6 where you're not allowed to do anything (that the CPU wants you to do), and then you play FIFA 07 and every through-ball seems to make it through.

This morning I had the best game ever online, the best online game of footy I'v eever played and I lost 3-2 but the football we both played was great and I lost to an own goal but it didn't matter. Online this effort by EA is amazing, so many lag free games its unbelievable. Well done EA, now sort out the single player content you @@@@s. LOL. I'm happy I chose this over PES.
Isn't it incredible though? I keep reading all of the posts about how much "PES6 has improved", I stick it in and after five minutes I'm laughing my head off. People are so used to an unrealistic football game that they're never going to buy anything else, thinking that because the players now take even longer to respond and stand still when you pass that it's "amazing".
This is the best football game I've ever played (along with Football Manager - I couldn't put one ahead of the other at the moment).

Is it better than the demo, because bar some minor improvements 07 was the exact same as WC2006 and I have that?
There are only minor improvements in the full game. However, it plays nothing like a previous FIFA so I don't know how you can make that comparison...

What does RB do? does it slow the pace like it does in wc2006? I liked that
Yep, RB is pace control.

can you actually make a difference to the camera angles with the slider bars in the menu or does it look the same no matter what?
You have four camera angles, you can't alter the zoom or height etc.

Yes, they take a long time to learn but they're very effective. Very realistic.
ripkord said:
can you still get from box to box in 2 seconds witha good player?
No, but I never thought that you could... The defence backs off a lot, but you can change their style of play if you don't want your defenders to do the same.
ripkord said:
does shooting actually sound like shooting or is it still a silent missile ball?
Play it with the headphones on, you hear everything, including players screaming about tackles occasionally (although I admit I think the crowd noise and post noise in PES6 is better).
