EA��s football giant takes to the pitch once more but has this year��s game been outpaced by the rejuvenated PES 2016? In fact it��s always interesting to see what publishers consider the most important thing to mention on the back of the box, and with FIFA 16 it��s the women��s teams, a new training mode, and FIFA Ultimate Team Draft. Again, no mention of any gameplay improvements, except for a vague reference to ��new ways to play��. The new ��no touch dribbling�� allows you to press a shoulder button and immediately break away from the ball. This works fine, but giving it it��s own button feels clunky and less organic than PES��s approach to the same problem. Indeed, midfield action in general feels stodgy and fragmented, we assume because of complaints that FIFA 15 played too fast and arcade-like.

The big news is that this year's update of FIFA will include... gasp... FEMALE PLAYERS. Not such a radical move, you would think, but it caused great consternation when it was revealed that FIFA 16 will include some international teams from the women's game. About time too. FIFA 16 features 12 Women��s National Teams for the first time in franchise history and also include game modes Match Day, an Offline Tournament, and Online Friendly Matches. We will know more after the EA press conference at E3 today. I��ve mentioned how FIFA 16 has a ton of new features, but it still falls victim to the yearly game conundrum. As someone who plays FIFA 15 on a regular basis, I��m just not sure if 16 is worth the upgrade. Of course, this year, we have the women. That��s huge. But I want more teams and not just national selections. How about incorporating the National Women��s Soccer League? Maybe next year.

Here��s the other rub: even though fifa 16 coins traders the news release about this feature has come around just in time for the start of the 2015 FIFA fifa coins traders Women��s World Cup in Canada, there won��t be any specific tie-in to the quadrennial tournament in FIFA 16. Again, it��d be hard to expect the developers to put together 24 teams (up from 16 at the last Women��s World Cup) of players, particularly with the game��s release coming many months after the conclusion of this year��s tournament. And I don��t think anybody would��ve legitimately expected the depth of features and options available in a full-fledged World Cup title like what EA SPORTS typically puts together, again due to the time crunch and this being a first effort towards adding women to the game.
