FIFA 98 uses the same installation method that the rest of *EA Sports****Win95*** games use. I'll try to keep it short, then.įirst of all, installation. Things that I am obliged to mention as a reviewer and that you need to know as a prospective buyer, but that you might not really wish to spend a lot of time reading about. You know, things like installation and options and interface.

Patience, because I wish to talk about the little details first. And if you wish to know why, well, you will simply have to read on, won't you? Just a little more patience, please Note that I used the word 'was' back there. While it is true that it is indeed a good game, it certainly isn't on par with games like Links LS or Nascar Racing 2 when compared to the sport they are representing. Sega World Wide Soccer was, and I quote myself, 'the best 3D football game for the PC'. We know that, not only by any objective criterion, like the slow nature of the sport, but also by the fact that good PC soccer games are so impossible to find. We all know that football, not the American version, is one of the hardest sports games to put on a PC screen. Need I say that it looks amazing too?īut as the days went by, and FIFA 98 was growing near, those worries crept slowly back in.

Then came one of the loveliest surprises of the season, NBA Live 98, that, while still needing a patch to reach its full potential, is one heck of a fun game to play. First it was NHL 98, a fabulous looker, obviously, and incidentally the best PC arcade Hockey game ever. Then, slowly but surely, my worries were set aside. Especially as they were saying the same things all over again- improved graphics, improved looks, improved feeling of being there. With most of the other EA Sports games suffering from this same problem in 1997, I was a little cautious when the 98 ones appeared. But one has to admit- FIFA 97 looked good. One game that went disastrously wrong in this regard was FIFA 97 - it is now one year later, and I STILL can't make heads or tails of its, err, intricate control system.

Their 97 line had a common problem- too much looks, too little play. I am not referring to their sales figures, but rather to the quality of their games. The most successful of PC sports gaming companies had a terrible last year.
