Great game! Love the new 'Journey' experience. You can tell with the new engine that the graphics are more crisp.

With improved player impressions, better player positioning and precise passing, I see this to be one of the best sports games. There is also the addition of new training drills and scenes, increased shot accuracy, and better ball touches.
As a Chelse FC fan, I would have been happy if Hazard was on the cover photo.

Presentation/Availability:
Product was well packaged with no broken/opened box. There were many available at the store.
Performance/Gameplay:
My review is for the PS4. Image resolution (gameplay and theatrical) is very good and the sound is good as well. Online playing is fast-paced and I love it!!!! I really recommend you use a good headset with this game if you want to hear every tiny sound on the game, especially when playing online. If you are not too serious about online playing, don’t go for the expensive edition of the game, since those extra features (and extra money) are for online playing. My kids and I love it!!!!! Can't wait to play FIFA 18.
Customer service:
Very good customer service. I was greeted by an employee as soon as I walked through the door.

FIFA 17 is Amazing

This year edition of Fifa is fun. The Journey is surprisingly enjoyable and offers an experience similar to MyCareer from the excellent NBA 2k series. If they build on this by allowing you to have your own created character play out his Journey through the end of his career and add improvements in incentives, FIFA will become a bigger gaint in the sports genre. The Career mode is excellent and fun. The gameplay is well paced and technical. The 60 Skills Games help improve your game dramatically. The real teams stay updated throughout the season. Online play is awesome and stable. Playing as the Women's International teams is really fun! Seasons and Pro Clubs are excellent. FIFA Ultimate Team is as addictive as ever. Overall, this an impressive package and the best FIFA ever put out in the history of the series. Great 2016-17 for EA. They stepped up!!!!

Best FIFA in Years!

As someone who has bought FIFA every year since FIFA 12, I can say this is the best FIFA in years. This iteration has changed the most out of all the years I've bought the game. The game now uses the same game engine used in the Battlefield games so it looks better than it ever has. The new Journey mode which is equivalent to the story mode in the 2k NBA games is a great addition with a very intriguing story to go with the amazing gameplay. Free kicks and penalty kicks are much harder to make now making them not as automatic as they have been in prior years. All in all, if there ever has been a year to step into FIFA or upgrade a prior year version, this is definitely it.

I bought this game for my bf cause he's a huuuge football fan and he loves every min of it. The graphics is pristine and almost life like. The journey chapter of the game is very interesting and it even got me hooked. The only downfall i find so far is that the money you earn while on your team can't be used for anything. But besides that, Its a definite must have.

What a year for Soccer!!!

FIFA 16 was a decent game, but had it's issues on the gameplay front. FIFA 17 appears to have addressed this through a revamping of the player AI. You notice this on both sides of the ball. The Defense seems more aware of their positioning and also begin to anticipate your offensive style, if you keep trying to attack them the same way throughout a match. The addition of the Frostbite engine makes the animations and player expressions look phenomenal. I can only imagine what this would look like in 4k. Gameplay in FIFA 17 is improved and makes it feel more simulation like, which is not how I felt about '16. 2017 is turning out to be a great year for Soccer fans, as FIFA 17 delivers an awesome gaming experience. GO GET IT TODAY!!

Great game. Although requires a lot of readjusting if you are used to playing the previous FIFA editions. Penalties and free kicks have been massively changed. Defending is much better than the previous editions

I like this game because it can play with 2 players, not like other games, always playing with single player. I am looking for more games that could play with more than 1 players.

This game keeps improving with ever newer version.
On the ground passing is the way to go, and running down the sideline and crossing is irrelevant in this game. Some may see this as unfortunate,
Shooting has become somewhat worse with this version. not easier to shoot on target anymore.
As for the graphics FIFA 17 takes it to a whole new level. The animation is solid, the voice acting is good, and the story is great.

Got this game since I always wanted a FIFA game ever since I had my PlayStation 2 had all the other game but FIFA. Have played it a few times so far, upgraded features and more realistic game time play. PK are much harder then the other old FIFA. Graphics are awesome. Have to checkout more feature in the game but so far I can't complain about the purchase very satisfied with it.

Very good graphics; nice action. Easy to use and to control. However, some of the faces and moves seen still very awkward - including going "through" some players...
