Torrent description

Have you ever noticed how some of the beautiful game's finest players are less than gorgeous themselves? When the mighty Pele coined the phrase in the late '70s, we suspect he wasn't considering Nobby Stiles' gaping gums, Peter Beardsley's gurning chin, or even the excess of teeth that would grace his fellow Brazilian legends Ronaldo and Ronaldinho.

Of course, had you pulled Pele up on the point, he, like any true football fan, would reply that it wasn't about whether these players could turn milk with a smile – but rather whether they could turn an opponent on the pitch. And this sentiment is directly relevant to FIFA 2006, although possibly not in the way hardened digital footie fans would expect.

Whereas previous incarnations of the series (there have been around 500 including FIFA Soccer on PSP) are known for putting presentation above playability, things are different here. Perhaps inspired by its sour-faced cover stars Rooney and Ronaldinho, FIFA 2006 has truly buck-toothed the trend, and turned out both the most entertaining but also possibly the ugliest soccer sim available on PSP.

FIFA 2006's menu screens are more slickly made up than the average clubbing babe (and backed by the same chart-topping tunes) and the match commentary could leave Sky executives weeping (Ray Stubbs is particularly good). But once you get out under the floodlights, the blemishes begin to appear. Right from the close-up kick off, the players look rough-edged and are troubled by a pronounced ghosting effect when they move. Switch to one of many wider angles (essential to see sufficient of the pitch to play) and the resulting polygonal matchstick men, though well-animated, are reduced to eye-straining dimensions. Special effects like moving streams of sunlight hardly help, nor does the yellow ball used for Premiership matches, while the crowd textures couldn't look more ropey if they were tied in a reef knot.


NOTES : Tried and tested on 3.10 OE-A' And it works perfect!
