Despite these niggles, FIFA 16 brings exciting football to life and being able to control the ball better and run at defenders with confidence makes for some thrilling game time. As expected with FIFA - the soundtrack is appropriately diverse and appealing, and there isn't any noticeable lag online yet either. It's a worthy step-up from FIFA 15 by fine-tuning small aspects of the game, but not compromising the formula fans have grown to love.

FIFA 16 delivers another deeply satisfying game of soccer replete with beloved franchise staples such as Ultimate Team, Co-op Online Seasons, etc. The core game is largely the same. But key additions in the Women's International Tournament and the new Ultimate Team Draft add depth to a game already full of immersive play options. With the addition of Ultimate Team Draft, EA could honestly put out Ultimate Team as a stand alone release.

FIFA 16 makes strong strides forward in gameplay, while offering minor additions to an already great core experience and working to get new fans on the field.

It's maddening, beautiful and downright frustrating all in the same utterance; an unpredictable, oftentimes surprising, experience that gives and takes in the same breath. It's more like the sport that it's trying to replicate than ever before and oddly enough that's not always as laudable as one might think. Though not as refined as optimally as one would hope, there is undoubted progress in this year's FIFA.

در نهایت باید اعتراف کرد ، FIFA 16 کم ایراد ترین و متعادل ترین فیفا ساخته شده تا به امروز بحساب می آید و می توان از آن به عنوان بهترین شبیه ساز فوتبالی سال 2016 نیز یاد کرد . بازی به طرز قابل تحسینی ، تعادل سرعت را به بازی ارائه داده است و دیگر مانند قبل شاهد یک شکل بودن حملات و یا تاثیر غیر منطقی بازیکنان سرعتی نیستیم و براساس استراتژی خود کاملا می توانیم یک طرح هدفمند را ارائه دهیم . فیفا کماکان می تواند بهترین شبیه ساز در سبک خود لقب گیرد اما نباید فراموش کنیم ، این بهترین بودن همچنان ناشی از فرمول خلق شده در نسل هفتم است و بازی در نسخه 2017 ، نیاز به تحولی اساسی در گرافیک ، انیمیشن ها و فیزیک خواهد داشت و این موضوع بدون تغییر یا ارتقا انجین حاصل نخواهد شد .

To say that FIFA 16 is a return to form may very well be one of the biggest understatements of the year.

New moves threaten to weigh down FIFA's snappy pace and breezy playability, but while slightly slower and more methodical, 16 plays a deeper, more balanced game of football.

As a whole, FIFA 16 plays well and fantastic visual cues. It will be interesting to see how EA will be pushed to produce a winning title if PES continues to keep the pressure.

FIFA 16 is light on sweeping changes but heavy on refinement, building an excellent new foundation for EA's football series.

EA's noble quest for authenticity certainly has its benefits, but there are times when the slower pace and more deliberate build-up play takes the shine off what is, after all, a video game representation of the beautiful game. It makes those wonder strikes and team goals all the more magical when you pull them off, but you're going to have to work a little harder to make these moments happen.

With so much content on offer, both old and new, alongside its many accessibility options, it's still hard not to recommend FIFA to footy fans of all ages and skill levels.

FIFA 16 is an excellent football game, but while the gameplay tweaks and minor improvements make it the best FIFA yet, the limited scope of new additions and modes make it feel like EA has missed an opportunity to completely establish itself as the king of the football sim.

Having women's soccer is a welcome addition to the FIFA 16 formula, which continues to have the advantage as far as its bells and whistles beyond the play on the pitch. Changes with defense and passing also improve the core gameplay though it still feels the same overall. One thing's for sure, the series will really need to step up its game next year if it wants to fend off its surging competitor.

More than a roster update, but not quite a footballing revolution, FIFA 16 adds enough changes and gameplay tweaks to keep longtime fans happy and help introduce new players to the series.

Calling FIFA 16 a bad game would be an unfair remark, as the game is incredibly fun and well-made, but it’s simply very safe in nature, which will be very noticeable for returning players, where the game offers a slightly less exciting rendition compared to last year’s stellar release. None the less, FIFA 16 is still a very solid title, albeit a bit Messi (horrible pun intended.)

A marked improvement over last year, but the absence of pace is sorely missed. FIFA 16 is not as good on the pitch as PES this year – again – but it's a great football game regardless, with unrivalled off the pitch options.
