Pro 2008, Total disaster
1. First of all, playing against the game becomes so frustrating. The referee is playing you at leat 80-20. I tried not even to tacle one time and i get 7-2 or 5-1 fouls. So i guess the player can mark the opponent with his eyes. And don't even get me strarted on yellow and red cards.
2. Even if you are "allowed by the ref" to mark your opponent, 80% of the times, the opponent still gets the ball. Or even worse, when you win the challenge, the ball goes straight to another opponent.
3. The stadium seems like its downhill at the lines. So when you mark your opponent, the ball 95% goes corner or free throw.
4. Every game seems like the player need to have to make 20 shots at least to get 2-3 goals. Its strange that players like Rooney, Ronaldo, Ronaldinho, Gerrard and other superstars cannot score from 5 metres in this game. On the other hand, the first chance the oppostion gets, usually goes in.
5. Free kicks are a total nightmare. If you get fouled outside the box, its totally against you. Its impossible to score, unless you have big skills. I scored once but never again no matter how much i tried. Even worse, if you get fouled at midfield area, its again totally against you. Most of the times you have to make a short pass, since if you cross 80% of the times you lose the ball.
6. The worst thing I ever saw in my life is the camera view at penalties. The player sees the goalkeeper from a strange angle, that makes you wanna cry out of despair. If you see it, its one in a lifetime experience.
There are a lot of other reasons that i can think of, but I guess you get the point about how bad the gameplay is. Its like the producers of this game never saw football in their life before. Hope that the next version will be better.
