While the preference of one football game over the other is basically apples to oranges, FIFA is the winner here because of the number of leagues that it has to offer, the stadium atmosphere and multiple game modes, including the surprisingly fun The Journey.

EA Sports is almost notorious for their reluctance to improvements regarding FIFA, but this year they've introduced a new engine, new way of taking set pieces, and an increase in dependence on player physicality and individuality.

The game continued to frustrate gamers on the defensive end, as they had to adapt to a more physical style of play. As far as referees go, it's safe to assume that everybody got used to their stupid mistakes. Still, FIFA is a really fun game, as it promises instant entertainment and allows everybody to actually enjoy the game. The popularity of football basically guarantees sales, yet it's nice that EA Sports took the time to improve an already marketable product.
