FIFA 18 Reviews
Despite an uneven evolution on and off the pitch, FIFA 18 manages to muster enough innovation and improvements to make it a worthy iteration of the franchise with a fleshed out Journey mode, the interactive transfers, and the real motion technology as its most juicy contributions. While the unbalanced action on the pitch and some abandoned modes constitute the most glaring weaknesses.

If you're looking for a realistic football experience, you don't have any choice other than FIFA 18. Still, there's not so much innovation in game modes, except for The Journey.

I'm going to pour hours upon hours into FIFA 18, and I'll have a blast the whole way, and that's really all that I could ask for.
FIFA 18 is really fun to play, the smoothness of creating chances, dribbling and the new realistic animations makes it more fun than ever before. And I like how EA made improvement almost in every mode in the game. The only issue is that with all the new additions to the attacking game style, it is harder to defend now, and sometimes players just do not respond to your actions which is frustrating. But still even with that, the game is so much fun to play for football fans and people who just want to play it.

The game provided a good improvement on the gameplay style and offers more realism, but it doesn't match the slowdown with development for certain modes specially Career mode that should be giving the same caring the same as Ultimate Team, the big improvement this time with the TV presentation and the atmosphere in the stadium and these are the most points that The development team should be praised besides overall graphics improvements.

EA has done well to emulate the culture of football into this game and while it is far from a perfect football game, with some more polish it can definitely become just that. Until then, the frustrations are real.
FIFA 18 is a decent game, the gameplay is fluid, and the game is rich in content, but at the same time it is unambitious and doesn't do enough to take the franchise to the next level
While you always know what you are getting with a FIFA game, this year delivers a highly polished and well refined offering with just the right amount of new.
FIFA 18 falls behind in the gameplay section once again when compared to its rival, but it makes up for a lot of those shortcomings in the rest of its offering. It’s not the best FIFA ever, but it is, at least, starting to move onwards and upwards after a couple of years of stagnating. A worthwhile purchase if you love football or football games.
Overall the game plays fantastically, especially if you’re an attacking team like Madrid.
FIFA 18 is one of the most solid entries in the FIFA series so far.
FIFA 18 is just a FIFA game, and therein lies the problem. It has every game mode, mechanic and feature that a FIFA game should, but at the same time, it doesn’t have that sparkle that the usual yearly instalments of the game have in one form or another.
FIFA 18 is yet another strong addition to the long-running series. With another powerful season of The Journey, some vastly improved skill games, and the return of fan favourite Ultimate Team, FIFA 18 is a welcome step forwards in the saga of the Beautiful Game.
Whilst the game isn't perfect in any form, it is another step forward and sometimes feels like 2 steps back. If you are a fan of the series then I think there is plenty for you to get your teeth into. FUT returns with the addition of challenges as well as Icons of the game, career mode adds a few additions to give you more of a sense that you are actually in control of your chosen team. There have been a few things taken out, like last years penalty system, thats reverted back to a standard shoot mechanic, and for some reason I can't find the early cross button for the life of me. All in all FIFA 18 is solid, yes it has it's flaws, but then so do Liverpool.
ifa 18 left me with a little bitter taste, while the game is really enjoyable to play the defending could have been much better. The atmosphere, visuals and sound are outstanding and the online play is unmatched and really fun.
In general we can say that FIFA 18 is a really well-studied title. The gameplay is great, although it remains on the arcade style, it is much more realistic than the past thanks to the excellent work implementation. As explained, the actions seem much more likely and fluid and this is also the result of the use of motion capture. Some defects persist, such as the absence of physics in rainy situations, or the little realism of the faces of some players. Overall, however, we have no doubts, thanks to its graphic rendering, its way and its wealth, FIFA confirms a very valid game.

Ronaldo and the boys take to the pitch in realistic fashion with fantastic visual representations across the field, though the same can't be said for the "improved" gameplay this iteration of the beautiful game.
Fifa 18 is the latest entry in EA's long running Football/Soccer simulation that aims to refine, add a couple new features and continue Hunter's story.
With PES 2018 failing to capitalise and build upon on its predecessor, FIFA 18 does just that to great effect.
