FIFA 11 On Wii Brings New Challenges
Just about nobody bought EA Sports' ill-fated FIFA Street series, but for those of you who like the concept, the Wii version of FIFA 11 is not only giving you street soccer, but a bunch of other gameplay modes as well.
Gamers can take 5-on-5 matches to the streets and experience some of the touchstones of the defunct Street offshoot, including wall-riding, power shots, and speed boosts.
While street soccer may be more-or-less an old feature, FIFA 11 on the Wii also brings the game indoors, and changes things up a bit with varying win conditions and options for wall goals, mini nets, elevated nets, and more in order to offer different challenges.
FIFA 11 on the system contains regular, 11-on-11 play, but it's good to see this version of the series try something different for the audience – as well as bring back the street gameplay without making people buy a whole, separate game.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
