After having read many comments (positive and negative) about Fifa 12, i was very unsure whether to purchase the game. Admittedly, i am a huge Fifa fan and so the latest edition had been put on the top of my shopping list. I saw the game up for auction and without thinking i put a bid in and won. I got the game a few days after its release date. I began my adventure as a premiership trainee taking my first tentative step into the world of football. I played a few matches and felt it was Fifa 11 in different packaging. But as i played more matches it became obvious to me there were distinct differences to the previous editions of Fifa. The skill games are a novel idea which are far better than the Fifa 11 goal scoring pre-match training. When i realised the game incorporated the national team, I knew the negative comments were wrong. The game has made good progression. I would love to say there were no disappointing sides to the game, unfortunately there is. As a player you either play the game or left out of the team. at no point is the player a substitute. Maybe Fifa are going to incorporate this in next years version. On a final note there has been a few glitches ie:- invisible ball and game crashing etc. But there has been a few downloads which has sorted these out. It has to be said, in conclusion, buy it for the sheer fun and enjoyment because not many games can last the year. The last one was Fifa 11 and 12 will do the same. Roll on Fifa 13.Read full review
As always, you kind of know what you are getting with Fifa and that is the same as the last one with a couple of new features and better graphics. I would not update it every year out of choice but it seems really important that the kids have the most up to date version. If you are buying it for the first time then it is a great format and great fun. If you are updating from Fifa 12 I would still recommend but look to get it at the right price.
great game, i was a pro evo gamer but decided to switch and now get used to a lot of amazing new things in fifa 12. im glad i tried this version of fifa as it is quite more developed then its predecessors. I will definitely purchase 14 end of this year or 13 depending on the changes made. this game obviously has a lot to offer to any skill level gamer because it challenges you on many levels.
Why did I buy Fifa 12? I have bought Fifa since The Road to World Cup version in 1998 and have had no reason to change over to PES yet. Every game gets better and better in terms of graphics, gameplay and player profiles. Also the game modes are great, particularly season and manager modes. I also purchased the Euro 2012 add on and that has not disappointed either, particularly the expedition mode where you play the qualifiying rounds in a sort of "game of risk" like scenario. The only negative I would say is the price tag as initially, like all games, it's too expensive. So the best thing to do is to purchase it when the next version is due for release. I would highly recommend this game, and the add on, to anyone.

Wonderful football game. Very well presented with great graphics but still has that Fifa kind of rushed feeling with the players' movements - in opposition to a more smooth and fluid on PES. However all the rest goes in favour of this game - sound, interface, licences and so on. It's very improved from Fifa 11 but I still say it could have reached the extra star.
excellent game fantastic starter before fifa 13, graphics are great and a wide choice of game play. no instructions needed as easy to figure out with simple and easy to use menus a fantastic gift for my son who loves the game and knows all the players and building up strategies and various game orders to make his team better and share scores and tables on xbox live with other players an a++++++ game and would totally recommend it for any football fan would also recommend buying fifa 13 as a follow up to this game which allows game play via the kinect making the game a bit more interesting as shouting out orders to players
Game play good.

The fifa 12 was a great game and just when I thought no other game can beat it, Fifa 13 actually did. Fifa 13 is the best football game ever made. Especially the all new online features like seasons for instance.
