FIFA Street Review
Last week, Lionel Messi became the first player ever to score 5 goals in one Champions League match. His performance didn't only embarrass a handy Bayer Leverkusen outfit, it epitomised why EA poached his face from Konami's faltering Pro Evolution Soccer franchise. The Argentinean, despite his beautifully conditioned hair, poses the most prominent threat in football today. His performance couldn't have been better timed, showcasing all the traits EA has worked hard to instil in this much-anticipated reboot. As any Thursday night footballer knows, nothing is more important than humiliation. Little Leo's debut in EA colours is symbolic of this, indicating the all-or-nothing style of FIFA Street, and turning the competitor's cheeks a rosy shade of red in the process.Importantly, EA has finally gotten serious with this title. Shifting away from the jovial spirit of FIFA Street 3, a glut of changes has been implemented to ensure this isn't a lazy sideshow to the main attraction. Players no longer take on the form of caricatures, so you won't be throwing the bicycle frame of Peter Crouch against a particularly bullish Carlos Tevez.
FIFA Street Review
Most people make do with one football game a year. They dutifully buy their copy of FIFA or PES every autumn, and it merrily tides them over for the next 12 months. But EA firmly believes that the marketplace can support more than one football game. Why not? Consumers regularly buy more than one first-person shooter and more than one role-playing game. Enter the rebooted FIFA Street franchise. Where previous entries in the series had a heightened sense of reality, with caricatured player likenesses and a camera partial to the odd crash-zoom, the new FIFA Street is much more in keeping with the core FIFA franchise. This doesn't mean it's been sapped of what makes street football potentially so electric and exhilarating; it simply creates a sense of continuity between the two titles. And that's no bad thing when the other game is FIFA 12, one of the best-selling sports games ever made. But FIFA Street isn't a cynical, half-hearted entry into the series, it's got an interesting career mode, a simple yet effective control scheme, and is just really, really good fun when played with friends. Presentation is good, but never approaches breathtaking. A lot of the environments are interesting and vibrant, but lack the level of detail to really sell them.

Despite its non-numeral title, this isn't the first FIFA Street ever created. The series predominately existed in the last console generation, but it's probably just as well that EA Sports is pretending they never existed, because they weren't that good. Luckily, time has been kind to the series. The fundamentals may not be all that different, but at least this FIFA Street contains a modicum of street soccer's creativity.As you might expect, the career structure of the game is nothing surprising: You travel around the world playing against fictional and real-world clubs and players, building up your own squad of footballers. There are a variety of attributes you can increase, as well as skill moves and celebrations to unlock. Although it can be frustrating that you unlock individual moves only after you've attained the requisite skill level, there are plenty of tricks you can deploy against your opponents so you never get bored on the pitch. In particular I liked the play styles, which let you do things like defend against nutmegs, diving headers, and spectacular saves.Performing your arsenal of tricks is relatively easy for anyone who's accustomed to EA Sports' right analog control system of flicks and half-circles, and the skill and pride comes in being able to accurately select the right move for the correct situation.
FIFA Street (2012) (Preview)
Will EA's latest FIFA Street have style and substance?As I mentioned in a recent article on the Vita version of FIFA 12, football isn't really my area of expertise. There have been a few stretches in my life when I tried to get into the sport properly (I "supported" Liverpool, before you ask), but I never really clicked with the quasi-religious, cry-if-your-team-lose side of things. And after the brutal masochism of England's piss-poor performance at the last World Cup, it'll be a while before I can stomach an international competition.FIFA Street is a football game, but it's one that removes itself from most of the institutional aspects that generally define the sport - the authoritarian regulations, the massive stadiums, and even the core tribalism that forms the backbone of life as a devoted fan. It's still a game about punting a ball into a net, but now that game can take place in halls, in the streets, or on the roof of a building in Hong Kong. There are just a handful of players on each side, and there's almost as much emphasis on showing off as there is on scoring goals. Almost, but not quite.We've been here before, of course. A Football Dunce I may be, but even I am familiar with the reputation of the original FIFA Street titles - and it's not pretty.
