Over all it's excellent. as good as the PC version though obviously screens have been moved and controls are all different.
the controls are great. was a nightmare at first, but i got used to it very quickly and now find them great. good job folks
the only thing i have to complain about isn't actually something that's the fault of SI. it's the 3d match. i'm on a standard TV and it's all really cramped. at corners and stuff it gets so busy you can't really so who is where and stuff. though like i said, not the fault of SI, having to work with standard TV res they've done well. though i do agree with those who have said to remove the benches and stuff to free up more space.
but as far as the game goes, A+ is my score!

Here here! That#s pretty much word-for-word what I think of the game too.
It's an awesome achievement that actually surpasses the PC version in parts. Congrats and thank you SI fellas!
The 2D 'squashed pitch' is about the only issue I have, but if a HDTV sorts it out then I just see it as another reason for me to go out and buy one!
The controls were a bit fiddly at first too, it took me a bit to work out the d-pad brought up the different squads.

Even now I sometimes hit the wrong button as the 'legends' don't always appear logical.
I've actually got used to the spider diagram to a degree now, it's a nice quick preview of a player's stats, though to be brutally honest most of the time I skip past iot quickly to get to the main stats page still.
I'd suggest keeping it and swappnig the function around (d-pad brings up spider diagram), but I guess that'd eliminate the 'quick glance' point of it.
There's 'bugs' in the coaches page I've noticed though, but I'll adress them another time. Even they can't spoil what has quickly become my definitive 360 expereince.
So thanks again chaps, you've done yerself proud!
