I played FIFA World Cup 2006 and couldn't wait for this game to come out. I just wanted to get the updated rosters and see what the South African stadiums looked like, I had no idea I was in for a realistic breathtaking experience. This game is your chance to put yourself in your favorite country's Football team and toil through qualifying on to win the World Cup.

The fantastic upgrade to the World Cup soccer series is called Game Face Creator and Captain your Country. Game Face Creator is easy, you log in to the EA Sports Game Face website

and upload a front shot .jpg of your face, then place the markers over the specific parts they ask for. To better model the shape of your head, upload a side shot as well. 5-10 minutes later, a 3D model of your face and head appear on the website. Add the kind of hair and facial hair you want, and save it.

Captain your Country is where the action is on the game. Gone are the days where you had to control every player on the field. It's so much more fun and realistic to take control of one player, and play your role as best as possible to score goals, assist on goals, and strip the ball from the other team. The coach takes care of substitutions. And you guessed it, you're going to create your own player with your face and body type to go out there and help your team qualify, and bring home the glory. The excitement you feel when you head in a cross, and see your favorite players celebrate with you is, I hope, part of the future of sports games.

But to get called up for your team to the World Cup, you have to play well during qualifying and friendlies. Remember to stay in position, pass well, and help with assists or goals. I recommend buying this game and trying multiple campaigns. You can play the actual World Cup fixtures if you want to, but I think it's great fun to also see other possible finals as well.
