[0nline7ube]

0:35 classic torres

[brunoblood]

great game !!

[legendLilLew]

does anyone else hate it when the commentator cuts in the middle of what he is saying. like at 2:58 when he goes 'great oppurtu... and its in'

[videogames991]

I don't get it is fifa soccer 12 the same as fifa 12 or is it fifa 12

[rockfan96channel]

3:48 am i the only one that noticed that, petr cech who's a GK took the penalty?

[mw3wiikid]

what is PES

[SymphonyOfDestruct99]

after playing 20+ matches, you ought to think the game become dull and boring.

[topografer]

@SymphonyOfDestruct99 Try PES 2012.. Fifa is practically a better game but PES is for some reason more fun and addicting, if a bit unfair sometimes

[avatarcbHD]

@SymphonyOfDestruct99 PLay Ultimate team dumbass

[avatarcbHD]

@SymphonyOfDestruct99 wow a fat lazy ignorant 10 year old who judges a game on one review

[MegaGogula]

Fuck u all who think pes is better

[4310mexi]

pes is better

[4310mexi]

fifa is boring as hell haha

[KevinMcDonaldMusic]

I like that while he is saying the game is realistic as ever Man Utd are playing Portugal :L

[GhostlyKudu2]

16 everton fans...

[georgeread]

Man United vs. Portugal, that classic matchup

[MrKiller6787]

I dont wanna start anything but i feel this has to be said. Weather u call it soccer or football IT DOESNT MATTER!! Its the same game and same sport!! Im from canada so we call it soccer. Butnim not gonna shit a brick when somebody ssys football. Its the same shit! So calm ur fuckin balls and take the dick out of ur ass and accept the fact that its called soccer in North America and football pretty much everywhere else!!

[Lyrical00Messiah]

FUCK ADVERTISEMENTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[joshgates]

Fifa 12 is nowhere near realistic in terms of gameplay. In fact, it's terrible. I would rate the game 10 out of 10 for everything else, but 3 out of 10 for gameplay. People who watches football should realize it by now that The game plays nothing like how it should be.

[bardhi09]

@joshgates I dont think we can ever truly emulate Football in Video Games its impossible IMO

[FishNChipz95]

At 2:26 andy carroll scores ... I thought this was supposed to be a realistic game.

[Hsanity]

5:34 sexual harassment anyone? typical Suarez :D

[bartvers]

The comments are exiting?!?! Not in Dutch!

[penahect]

3:49 wtf?

[SubZ3ro3]

@penahect that made me laugh at loud

[penahect]

3:01 red card

[penahect]

3:01 lol the guy falls two times

[speedfreakdude]

your right. its getting worse and worse  yehhhhhh

[TheDislikedChild]

Fifa is the worst game series i have ever seen PES for ever

[rptimao]

FIFA 12 > FIFA 10 > PES6 >> FIFA 11 > FIFA 09 > PES 2011 > FIFA 08 > PES 2012

[yura50597]

am i the only one thinks this is very hard to do a small cross or an accurate cross in fifa 10 (yes i mean fifa 10 not 11 and not 12)

[liamdudeFTW]

So this guy supports Man.U..... THIS REVIEW IS POINTLESS

[DrSalvatore31]

Soccer sucks!

[TheGreatChancho1993]

@DrSalvatore31 i like soccer and rugby, both of which are amazing :) Go Scotland!

[midleton92]

@aidenmccloskey Im not from America and I call it soccer

[aidenmccloskey]

@midleton92 Where are you from then?

[midleton92]

@aidenmccloskey Ireland

[aidenmccloskey]

@midleton92 You're Irish yet call football, soccer? You must get dogs abuse from friends for that and deservedly so.

[midleton92]

@aidenmccloskey you're going to have to explain that statement because not one part of it made sense......

[96hardcoregamer]

Should I get fifa 12 or mw3???

[fukktheworld100]

@96hardcoregamer mw3

[boredoflife227]

@96hardcoregamer Fifa 12

[NoobFestSupermellor]

i dont know why fifa is so popular and no one complains that it is spammed every year like cod. it is! i got bored of it. but fifa 12 is an exception cause of the new engine

[R1Ofc]

2:46 WTF??

[MickeyIsEpic]

@3:56 FC Barcelona 0-10 Chelsea. WTF!!?

[walidb123]

it's an improvement but it's not THAT amazing.

[tubbychar]

pes is better



[Communist2012]

the crowd looks shit ... go look at the crowd graphics for mlb 2k11 and tell me why they cant do it in this game ? -_-

[luisfaial]

@Communist2012 because in basketball you have 3,000 people watching, in football you can have 90,000 people watching

[ENZ499]

@luisfaial well, actually in basketball you have 20,000 people watchin' , and dey could do it but it aint a big thing .

[midleton92]

@luisfaial you do know that MLB =/= NBA right?? not even close actually

[SurfinBird369]

wow, they gave this a 9.0 while give bf3 8.5. Stupid

[cilliangreene]

@SurfinBird369 CAUSE FIFA IS A BRILLIANT GAME, BF3 IS SHIT

[sgrass471]

@SurfinBird369 That is because FIFA 12 is awesome and BF3 is just great, as simple as that

[judybrown11]

still playing 11 and still happy playing 11 :)

[PAFCdave]

@judybrown11 I'm still playing fifa 10 ha ha 

[AK1292]

@PAFCdave 10 was awesome :D. The biggest jump in FIFA ever was arguably from 9 to 10.

[ir2pid]

OMG ! cech has an epilepsy attack @ 3:46

[tomodude6542]

What the hell happened at 3:49???

[genabet123]

My favorite FIFA game yet! Brilliant gameplay, much better then FIFA 11. I didn't like FIFA 11 too be honest. The gameplay on FIFA 11 seemed stiff, unresponsive, plus it had an arthritis feel to it, absolutely caining your finger joints. This game is also very unforgiving if you make a mistake, but it just feels a lot better then ridiculous FIFA 11. I'm loving the new defending system btw. This game basically takes out the best of FIFA WC FIFA09/10/11 and then rolled into one. I'm Very impresse

[ElMupo]

Sweaty Goal!!!

[safwanthesavior]

fifa 12 is a stupid game

[fossilfuelmusic]

good game for people who dont have wireless internet, because who really gives a shit about a fifa roster update

[MultiTrackyBoyz]

3:48 Trololol

[Enigmaprince]

is this game worth to buy? I own fifa09 and think the previous ones have sucked that is 10 and 11 so is this any better?

[AlbertimusPrime]

@Enigmaprince yes, this game is worth buying its awesome, but you're going to have to get used to tactical defending which alot of people are complaining about.

[Enigmaprince]

@AlbertimusPrime

ok thx :) but I guess when u are used to the tactical defending its as good as the old and as effective?

anyhow if you can get used to make the throu passes both with the long passes and short passes and the shooting system is not too complicated then im satisfied becoz the rest is fine as it is.

[TheBigEyebrows]

the soundtrack makes me wanna club baby seals...

[LUPTON1995]

Alan Smith in my opinion is a much better commentator than Andy Gray and he knows his stuff :)

[allmine250]

1:05 Clear glitch

[BLuePheonix100]

i was watching PES 2012 and FIFA 2012 trailers and reviews and i decided to buy FIFA cuz PES2012=PES2011 and also FIFA is more realistic...

[Donkeyhawk]

They changed defending because ball-hogging "skiller" unproper heathen cunts with blue afros were making a fool of themselves on online teamplay and that makes up a majority of the gaming population without parental controls to limit idiots, monkeys, and uncivilized uneducated cunts ... they were losing the ball and making enemies. Now they still look like fucking morons but are able to beat a man or two before they lose posession from a useless pass. Still a complete travesty.

[mabfuns]

h u r r a y

make money playing fifa!

go & earn

fifa-12-cheats(dot)com

[QCftw97]

i feel the same way towards sports games and racing games, they may be gr8 party games, but after a couple of plays, it gets boring

[illuminatzihunter]

FIFA 12 IS PURE SHIT!!!!! its far to slow and people dont like the fact that your basically given no choice how to defend, tactical defending means that every game you play there will be no clean sheets for either player its not realistic.... ALOT OF PEOPLE ARE ACTUALLY SELLING IT AND SO HAVE I!!!! from being 212th last year to cant be bothered with fifa 12 defending crap

[LUPTON1995]

@illuminatzihunter the defending system on FIFA 12 is unbelievable! It is completely different to FIFA 11 and the game handling is so easy and enjoyable to use.. I have never experienced something like it before, its just simply brilliant! and if you think you concede goals more easily then you must be either shit or you're new to the game and you need to get used to it. Its WAY more realistic than FIFA 11 because its more challenging and thats what you would want from a game so stop moaning!!

[L3Z99]

Is every football fan on the internet an idiot?? Lol,moaning because you cant just hold down a button and let the computer win the ball back for you. Practice it and master it,it makes the game soooo much better.

[MrDaZe5]

NO TOP COMMENTS! ok uuhhhmm... I LIKE CHEESE !!!

[INT3L818]

Name of song at beginning??

[chisel954]

So how's the commentary guy's (good/bad repeating lines...) ?

[nick13213]

@chisel954 very good. but the english guys are boring as always :/

[Hajeh22]

Has Fifa not had shirt pulling before, I would've thought they had. Pes has had it since 2007.

[ch0s3nd3r]

HAhahahah the guy reviewing this is just reading stuff off EA's website

[topografer]

By the way does anyone notice that the traditional defending system sucks? Standing tackle won't do anything in most cases

[topografer]

To be honest the only downside of this game is when you play with the computer.. Especially in this fifa you seem to defend for ages, because AI won't do any mistakes... But in multiplayer the game is absolutely a blast... I prefer PES for single player experience, its much better in that department.. Both master league mode and the matches themshelves make PES the better single player game but FIFA playing with mates, i just love it and can't live without it, cause its so good

[JackmackSir]

fifa is shit. pes 4 life!!

[ch0s3nd3r]

@JackmackSir

I just deleted it off my pc. Bring on pes pc version, i'm going to patch it with fifa commentating and play that one instead.

[gcoote]

Andy Carroll scores a goal at 2.27!? I thought FIFA was meant to be realistic!?

[AlwaysNegativ]

also. because of the player impact engine.. you are injured in no time and you get cards for every single touch! I hope that fifa will come with a patch soon, or otherwise i'm buying pes and trow a lot of mud on ea!

[AlwaysNegativ]

ok. game is out.. played it.. i have one thing to say.. facepalm! Keepers horrible suck..

in earlier fifa's the keeper was to good and kept every ball out.. but this is even worse.. Even the slowest shot in the corner.. the wont get a hold on.. Also i think that fifa thought.. hey, almost no scoring from rebound.. and now every time the keeper dodge the ball.. it bounces to a attacking player!!!! CMON.. if keepers dodge a ball.. they puss it to the side, behind the line or over the goal!

[Caddyos11]

I dont understand why it needs to be Called Fifa Soccer 12 in America. I know Soccer is there word for football, and i dont want to get into the argument of football and soccer, but the game isnt Called Fifa Football 12. Its just Fifa 12, so why is 'soccer' added to the title?

[slashgamer100]

horrible graphics

[hesaidchest]

@FreshMiner that's not it..every1 calls it football in someway only usa calls it soccer, so the french-english "hello" can't be a fair comparison, but i get where you coming from(a place that calls football soccer :P)

[CodeyBu]

@hesaidchest and ireland call it football. because we have a sport called football. But its actually called Gaelic football but its football and soccer is soccer :)

[ndaz120]

might have a wank now.

[SoccerMsLover]

Come watch some of my videos of me playing soccer ! Please give me an opinion on how I play, would be appreciated :)

[LOKITYZ]

FIFA doesn't suck, it's an awesome game... It's just that my heart belongs to PES, and I just can't like FIFA as much as i like PES.... When i play FIFA, It feels awesome and fun, but when i play PES, I feel home...

[huggies12345]

@FreshMiner Yeah but French and English are two different languages. Americans speak the same language but for some reason some of the words are changed. Why is American football called football you hardly ever use your feet you may aswell call it cricket.

[Indianapolisfootball]

soccer/football who the fuck cares its the same goddamn game shut the fuck up and move on

[gmak888]

anyone notice how shit the reviewer was

[chainsawcookie1983]

the reason ppl hate the new defending engine is because you have to use your brain instead of holding 2 buttons down for the whole game and because they fucking suck,a massive step forward.

[juventino23]

Fifa dropped the ball big time with the defending engine... its absolute shit.

[davilinho1]

another reason i fucken didnt buy that game fifa 11 is better in everything

[DiegoMOBZ]

the new tactical defending sucks



[KonohasOrangeFlash]

@DiegoMOBZ No, you just fucking Suck at Defending, Tactical Defending is Great, any TRUE FIfa fan would tell you that

[RunAwayNine]

No more giving a score out of 10?

[shaanjawaid]

fifa got 9.0

pes got 8.0 this means fifa is better for this year

but the gap is closing between pes and fifa

[NMAtuts]

3:49 Cech gets a concussion

[9ron101]

i think it should be rated more than a 9.0

[pollouk]

one of the best commentery ever!! good reviews

[Arcibaldinjo]

FUCKI FUCKING FUCKING FUCKING FUCKING FUCKING BANEEEERS BANEEERS FUCK YOU YOU YOU YOU YOU YOU YOU BANNERSSSS!

[batatss]

i hate fifa 12 online..

i have it 2 days ago and i hardly played 5 matches.

i lost 3 because of the servers !!!!

I REALLY HATE THAT ><

[boogynights]

Can't believe they gave a score of 9.5 jock cuffers ign bitches.

[M3mPHiS]

the goals are too easy - too much space, defense doesn't move well.. or was it in amateur mode?

[zipporapper]

gamespot 9? boo....ea sports decide to revamp defending just because they ran out of ideat what to do with this franchise. ouh lets make the players time thier own tackles...that makes it more realistic. so what previously all the while you made a moron out of us by making fake tackles in the game? or it wasnt a tackle its banging on the leg of the attacker.. fucking ea sport moron. you dont fix what is not broken. idiots

[hachiki7354]

desc.: king of football games for years now? are you kidding me? i don't know about this one but everybody who loves football played PES since 2005... PES shits all over FIFA

[Relaxay1]

What the hell is 10/10 then?

[kaushikpaddy]

@Relaxay1 lol if there are every any 10/10s then all the comments for other game reviews are gonna compare it to that. like not the little kids have COD to compare every game to

[WhiteGuy4Hire]

1:20 i dont think that englend will ever lose 3 0 to usa

[Dabadiestkidalive3]

FIFA 12 = Females Ignored For Another 12 (Months)

[NO1WARCHILD]

[darkwatch127]

IT`S FOOTBALL GOD DAMNIT!!! FOOTBALL!!

[ChrisSousaPortugal]

"Your favorite players are instantly recognizable"? Thats total bullshit. My favorite players have generic faces despite a lot of them being national team players

[JASoul100]

3:00 Fail goal celebration

[p1e2t3e4r5j6o7n8e9s]

Loved Carroll's skill at 2.24

[iveayu]

I cant tell the differences =.=

[iveayu]

I cant tell the differences =.=

[Eihcra96]

I hate the word Soccer. I just don't get why they call Rugby 'Football'. Makes absolutely NO sense. Call it Football already America. -.-

[iscrewy]

@Eihcra96

Lets focus on something important.

Why is America still using imperial instead of metric?

[warriorprince1010]

@Eihcra96 No one calls rugby football anymore, very few anyway. NFL is gridiron, thats its global name, gridiron. There is only one football.
