Plot Summary: FIFA
Soccer 11 is the eighteenth of twenty editions of this epic soccer
game. The franchise has improved year after year since its inception in
1993. While the rules of soccer never change, game play has only become
more and more realistic. FIFA Soccer 11 improves the way the computer
moves the players that are not near the ball. This game allows you to
play as the goalie if you would like. You can also be a coach during a
15 years of league play. This game allows you to create tournaments
with all the best teams from around the world. Game interaction between
the games has also been improved. During career mode you are notified
of your success through email updates. The final upgrade for this
edition is the improvement of real player personalities. EA Sports
writes, “Feel the difference, on and off the ball, with Personality+ as
each player’s individual behaviors and traits are authentically
replicated in-game.” It is an uphill battle trying to capture the
subtle nuances of hundreds and hundreds of players.
