If you are expecting many new features of World Cup 2010 from FIFA 10, you might be left disappointed. If you were hoping for a turn in a new direction or a drastic change, continue to look further.
In terms of style and gameplay, there is little difference between World Cup 2010 and FIFA 10. There are a few new animations, as well as lighting improvements and improved player models. However, I would argue that most players could not tell the difference between the two models. Regardless, FIFA World Cup 2010 is still the best looking soccer game on the market.
One of the key components behind the makers of EA’s FIFA World Cup 2010 is the atmosphere. The overall presentation could be the most striking feature among these minor changes. The menus offer a clear, crisp, and bright picture. World Cup 2010 also has a slightly faster feel. The matches kick off with streamers and fireworks, much like the start of a party. There are also regular video clips of cheering and dancing crowds that enhances the World Cup feel.
In the end, the game does a nice job of capturing the spirit of the real event while limiting the changes from FIFA 10. Once the Cup kicks off in June 2010, it will be worth getting your hands on.
