Fifa 11 Improvements & Additions

Since Fifa 11 has came out...I have been very impressed with a few things in the game so far. One change which comes to mind is how they have slowed down the tempo of the passing. This is a very good improvement as sometimes it's an actual struggle to get in or around your opponent's penalty box unlike older Fifa/Euro games where you could just get into the box willy-nilly without caution.

A few updates that some people may not of picked up like headers. As of now, Headers are a lot better as you can direct your header a lot better & control it more effectively. Another one being that chipping the ball over the keeper is a lot more difficult to control and ultimately score.

Moving onto the Main-Event being the addition of the 'Goalkeeper Mode'. Firstly, movement is critical to a keeper, with the prediction of shot placements among one of the key skills in effectively saving opportunities. This is done by using the left stick, much like normal movement but is seen from a behind-the-net view while lacking the turning speed of an outfield player. As the game is relatively new I haven't really experienced 'Goalkeeper Mode' that much but I did start a Be A Pro file with Kasper Schmeichal at Leeds United. Playing a few games I noticed how little I was doing and ended up hoping the other team came forward made me actually do something. I have found myself browsing the web whilst my teamates play on...hurry to get back to my controller and burst out into tears when the ball in cleared.

As this is my first entry...I'll leave you with some screenshots so I don't bore you too much.

Hope you enjoyed it...I will be adding more blogs about such things such as MMA Tycoon tips or hints, & a look at Football Manager 2011.
