All in all, I legitimately liked the game more than I expected - and it gives me another game I'm able to play with my toddler. While I wont be rushing out to buy 2020 version of the game, I may actually consider picking it up if I see it at a good price, where as previously this is not something I would have ever considered at all. However, at the end of the day - this is a game aimed towards a specific market, and unless you are a part of that market, it isn't a game I would necessarily recommend to purchase.

With initial excitement having died down a few months after the game's release, FIFA 19 stands exposed for what it is: another recycled iteration of a franchise that sorely needs refreshing. Both off the pitch and on it, FIFA 19 is a hollow experience, yet another broken promise and a slap in the face of what we have come to expect from good game development. To truly compete in the gaming arena, FIFA must lace its boots and pull up its socks if it is to achieve what it too lazily sets out to each year.

Taken as the sum of its parts, FIFA 19 is the most complete and beautiful soccer game around. Upon closer inspection, the latest entry doesn't shine as brightly. There are some admittedly great additions to this year's offering, but they don't add enough to the game to make it worthwhile for returning players who are invested in single-player content.

Whilst FIFA 19 hasn’t re-invented the wheel with FIFA 19 it has done enough to improve what it already a stellar Football experience. Career and Pro modes may not have received an overhaul but where it counts, FIFA 19 nails it. It may feel like iterative changes have been made but they are quite bold for the franchise and FIFA 19 is all the better for it. There can be no argument, FIFA remains firmly atop the Football genre.

To note, I played through gradual levels of difficulty, and none of which had an effect on how well you shoot. The difficulty level only determines how good the opposing team plays. Despite these, playing matches and especially playing with your friends at home are still loads of fun. Games like these make amazing party games and are best played during free moments wherein you’re just looking to relax.

with all the overall improvements that FIFA 19 brings, this may just be the best FIFA yet.

FIFA 19 offers amusing story, better ball control and great presentation. But also schematic AI and some game modes need improvements.

Maintaining an almost impossible level of polish across its many modes, FIFA 19 might not eclipse PES 19 on the pitch, but it demonstrates its worth via The Journey.

More and more each year it feels like EA could just charge for an upgrade pack rather than a full game.

FIFA 19 is a rather rudimentary refresh for the soccer sim series, one that offers slightly retooled gameplay and plenty to do in FUT, but doesn't feel all that exciting. For the first time this console generation, it's an annual entry that's probably safe to skip for casual fans.

FIFA 19 makes some welcome tweaks and revels in its Champions League license, leading to a fantastic sports sim sadly held back by microtransactions.

FIFA 19 is one of the best soccer simulators. The acquisition of the UEFA Champions League was more than necessary and its usage in basically all game modes fits perfectly. The gameplay mechanics was improved, as well as the game presentation. FIFA 19 is a volley goal.

Compared with Pro Evolution Soccer 2019, FIFA 19 makes a much more obvious progress, and I believe it's one of the finest game in the series.

If I were to name a single significant change, this would be the one. I don't know how users are going to react, but I'm willing to bet that in six months after everyone got accustomed to it, FIFA 19 is going to be named the best in the series by the people who are playing it.

Without a doubt FIFA 19 is the best soccer simulator, but it's not the most complete sport game out there. FIFA 19 has many problems that were seen in the previous versions of the game and unfortunately the changes that have been applied in it are very minor and don't resolve these problems. But still the games is promising and if you are a fan of this sport franchise you can still enjoy it very much. However if EA Sports really wants to stay ahead of Konami, it has to apply greater alternations in this franchise and also optimize its gameplay better.

FIFA 19 shows that sometimes it's not all about reinventing the game so much as it is about making improvements to what already works so well. FIFA 19 is probably the best FIFA to date, but EA will not want to repeat the tweak-performance next time out.

FIFA 19 is EA's most realistic football game yet. It offers a great variety of various gameplay modes, but it still has some quirks that could stand to be changed. Despite that, it's a great title that will keep its owners entertained for tens or even hundreds of hours.

FIFA has its ups and downs, going through years when the company seems to care more about swaying grass and player celebrations than tactics or responsiveness. Happily, FIFA 19 is one of the good ones.

19 is better than FIFA 18 in almost every way, and it's more fun to play than any other football game right now.
