8. Player Anatomy

FIFA 14 was without question the best looking instalment in the franchise upon its release but €“ as is always the case €“ the latest entry into EA€™s football series blows it out of the water. FIFA 15 amends, improves and overhauls many of its predecessor€™s graphical shortcomings but one set of changes which are immediately striking are the upgraded player models. FIFA 14 may have done a stellar job capturing the likeness of players€™ faces but you didn€™t feel like the eleven men at your control were professional, top-level athletes. The player€™s on FIFA 14 had generic, ill-defined physiques which didn€™t lend themselves to making the player think they were in command of sportsmen. On the other hand, the first player we are shown on FIFA 15 is the 6€™4€, muscular Manchester City captain Vincent Kompany, who instantly confirms that much more details has been put into the detail of the players€™ anatomy. The trailer then goes on to show numerous other world-class players and their improved character models such as Zlatan Ibrahimovi‡, Marco Reus and Lionel Messi; showcasing every bulging muscle and twitching ligament.
