Wish I could rate it higher, certainly _looks_ great. September 16, 2007

This is one of those "so close" cases, where so much was done right that those few things that went wrong are even more glaring.
Among the things it does right are presentation elements like the visuals, the commentaries, the presentation, the athmosphere - it's all top notch. The controls and handling is also quite good, no obvious camera bugs, drops, framerates or other such issues to notice. Various gameplay types look both deep & varied, at least up front (haven't really investigated each of them that well yet), which admittedly can be viewed as either a good or a bad thing depending on what you as a player are looking for.
So why not give this one full marks, then? Well, my main reasons for plucking those two stars of the ratings are the following:
The menus and navigation is at best described as complex; confusing, disorganised & irritating at worst. But the very, very worst thing about this game is found once you head online - it's got no voice communication options at all!! In such an interactive & competitive genre as sports this is an absolute 'must have' feature to include, and here it's just completely missing - for no aparent reason. So you cannot in any easy way negotiate with your opponent about team selection, rules to choose, length of match etc etc. - and you can just forget about that funfilled in-game banter with your online friend during the match!
These glaring ommisions completely killed the multiplayer experience for me, which for a sports title is half the game!! Add to this the annoying navigation 'system' (a term I have to use lightly here), and 3 stars is more than generous.
