 Shocking January 28, 2008

I was so excitetd when I first saw Fifa Street 3 advertised. Bearing in mind I'd never played Fifa Steet 2, just the original, I had been told FS2 was every bit as good as the first in the series and better. So I thought surely the third would be another step forward for Fifa Street. So I downloaded the demo onto my 360 with great anticipation. However, only one word springs to mind when reviewing this: Shocking. This is a complete step in the wrong dircetion for Fifa Street. It's a leap back from the original game. Whereas you used to have realistic looking players, great music, a great MC Comentator and hours of fun playing on your own or with a friend, this has none of those. The players look absolutely terrible. They all seem really tall, thin and lanky, and, as a previous reviewer said, the word characature springs to mind. They look like cheap and tacky cartoon drawings, nothing like the original Fifa Street players. The music is poor, the absence of the MC commentator was very obvious to me and was sorely missed, and just the whole gameplay in general has greatly deteriorated. What happened EA? Bearing in mind I'm reviewing the demo, I can't see how the Reatil Version will be any better. I would have given it no stars given the option. It is not at all value for money. So I warn you: buy this drab with extreme caution.
IF YOU HAVE FIFA STREET 1 OR 2 DON'T BOTHER, IT'S A BACKWARD STEP January 24, 2008

FIFA Street always looked good, I was expecting big things on the next gen consoles, but instead of wowing us with amazing life like graphics, they have made it a cartoon game with caricature faces of the famous players.
You will notice all the England team look either look like Popeye, or thugs in some prison type cartoon, Beckham doesn't look like himself one little bit, which just shows you that if they can't make the most famous footballer on the planet look like himself them their artists simply need firing, the bodys are basically caricature too, so is the background of the arenas, this looks like it has been done on purpouse, not neccesarily that the artist who did the arenas was on recreational drugs.
What really irritates me is that now there is an arcadey almost pinball machine type sound as you play the game, gone is the MC from the earlier games and you have to put up with this dreadful cheap sound affect that you can't turn off in the sound options without turning off the whole of all the games sound effects. It seems they have gone out of their way to make the whole thing like a cheap arcade game and not of the quality of real life street football of the last two games, if EA Sports wanted to do this why even used licensed players? it makes no sense at all.
We, the players, want realism in our games, and making a decent footy franchise into a cartoon isn't going to please anyone, but graphics aside what about the gameplay? well, it's not bad, but not that good either, there is absolutely nothing new or improved on the last games, in fact I would say it's not as good as the previous FIFA Street games, so as I said in my headline if you have previous games you might want to stick with them and just pretend this sloppy effort never happened.

peopel say the new carachters look less realistic but who cares the whole games really unbeleivable anyway like doing backflips of walls or jumpin 10 ft over people so if the games characters look funny it just adds to the effect. this game is atotal muck around and great fun buy it

EA break the mould and produce and outstanding street football game which ozzes urban and contemporary class. The exaggerated player characters, the buzzing music and the slick skills available make this a real fun fest nonstop action game requiring quick hands and quick tactical thinking.
Good Job EA!

When I bought this game I thought that the graphics were absolutely shocking, i still do. The annoying thing about this is that it is very confusing, its not like the original FS where you can rule the street you jump teams which is very confusing and a number of tournaments can get repetitive. You cant make your own player, customize him or make your own team. Tackling is annoying because they dont actually slide they sort of breakdance and by you've pressed X the opposing player is too far away to actually get tackled. I rated it 4 stars because the gameplay is pretty good. EA could and should have spent much more time perfecting the graphics. This is not worth 40 quid of anybodys money so rent and dont buy it unless you really like it.
PROS: Good gameplay
Better Gamebreakers
Lot of Choice
CONS: No MC commentator which makes the game seem too quiet and the music is enough to give you a headache.
Can get repetitive
No Rule The Street
