FIFA Major League Soccer 2000 Reviews

The addition of MLS teams makes it much more enjoyable for the American soccer fan. The uniforms look great and the flow of the game is pretty fluid once you get the hang of it. The classic teams are fun to play with if you are a soccer purist. Being able to play as Pele (No.10) and Beckenbauer and Ricky Davis with the New York Cosmos from their hey-dey in the 70's is great! The updated team rosters for the European clubs is another bonus. I was a little upset to see that Portugal's club teams and national team were left off of this year's game, and I'm still wondering why Brian McBride isn't on the Columbus Crew roster. As for the new commentators (Schoen and Foudy), they aren't bad. Motson and Lineker were more fun to listen to on FIFA 99, but the overall game is better in 2000! Buy this game! You will not be disappointed. 7 of 7 people found the following review helpful By A Customer = Durability: This review is from: FIFA Major League Soccer 2000 (Video Game) FIFA 2000 is the best soccer game there is. The graphics have improved since FIFA' 99, the gameplay is better, there are more teams, the crowd does more cheering and chanting, the goalies are smarter, and the schedules mix the cup schedules into the league schedule at the same time, and there are multiple seasons. However, replacing Jon Motson and the British announcers with Phil Schoen and Julie Foudy was not a good idea. They are OK, but the commentary in '99 is better. But, FIFA 2000 is so enjoyable that the annoucers don't take away from the game. If you have to hear the British annoucers, then stick with FIFA '99. Otherwise, go buy FIFA 2000, because it is the best soccer game out there. 6 of 6 people found the following review helpful By This review is from: FIFA Major League Soccer 2000 (Video Game) I loved Fifa 98! Fifa 99 was a disappointment! And Fifa 2000 falls somewhere in between.The graphics and gameplay had a noticeable improvement. The soundtrack to the game was amazing, just as in prior releases. Especially, the opening sequence (Robbie Williams - It's Only Us). However, I was disappointed with a number of things. First, not all the countries and country leagues were represented. For example, Portugal which almost won the European Cup is not even one of the available teams. In the previous two versions, it was possible not only to pick Portugal, but also to play with one of the teams in the Portuguese league. Second, what happened to the announcer? This is not a rip on Judie Fallon, but I liked the commentary combination in the previous games much better. I think that Judie's commentary would have been much more appreciated in a separate game targeted directly towards women's soccer. Despite the dislikes, I would definitely recommend... Read more |
