First FIFA 12 Reviews Are In

One of the most anticipated annual video game franchise releases is always undoubtedly FIFA, and the hype for 2012's edition is testament to that. What do the critics think of the latest version of the game, though?
CVG (93%)- "A more charismatic, tactical FIFA that's finally taking steps in a new direction."
IGN (95%)- "FIFA 12 has not just innovated for the sake of it- the gameplay innovations greatly improve the way FIFA plays. Matches unfold with a realistic tempo, taking it much closer to the real thing. Revolution? Evolution? Who really cares."
GAMESRADAR (8/10)- "With a lean towards creating the most thrilling multiplayer sports title to date, FIFA 12 has overlooked those looking to escape into the world of football on their own. It looks amazing and still provides an authentic experience, but the single player experience is severely lacking."
NOWGAMER (86%)- "Still a worthy sports title, especially with friends, but the new control system is nightmarish in its learning curve and it's not that different to 11 when the old, superior controls are applied."
OFFICIAL NINTENDO MAGAZINE (80%)- "Plays a good game, but FIFA 11 owners will be annoyed at how similar this is."
METACRITIC AVERAGE: PS3/360- 92%, WII- 70%
So as good as ever really, if reviewers are to believed, but a title which is as ever sure to please its large fanbase. FIFA 12 is out now.
