Score the goal that lifts your nation to victory and mark the occasion with user-controlled celebrations. The stage is set for 32 friends to compete for the chance to be crowned 2010 FIFA World Cup champion. Presented in an art style that celebrates the cultural vibrancy of the first FIFA World Cup to be held in Africa and in true-to-life detail, including confetti rain, streamers, & fireworks, 2010 FIFA World Cup features all 10 official licensed stadia in South Africa and all 199 national teams that took part in qualification. I honestly couldn't have predicted just how much time I'd spend with a ten year old version of a game released every year, but I really enjoyed revisiting it, and was - in a way - sad for how obsessed with speed and goals that Fifa would become.2010 FIFA World Cup South Africa Take on the challenge of leading your home nation in the official 2010 FIFA World Cup tournament, from the group stage through the knockout rounds to a virtual re-creation of the championship final.
The sound quickly becomes as grating as ever and there's nothing particularly memorable in the tunes selected to provide the South African ambiance. There are cut scenes for the managers, although there's only really the one bent knees (ah that was close) reaction animation. Players are recognisable on the pitch, not just in the cut scenes. Graphically, the game is really starting to get there in this version. Heavy touches, weight to the players, a lucky bobble of the ball, were all things that contributed to the feeling that this was a genuine simulation.
Working down the wings and crossing seemed to be profitable, but not with every team I played as, again - realism. There didn't seem to be any obvious tricks, such as overpowered volleys, or spamming the through ball button to regularly score or create chances - so it was in that sense, much more realistic. Even on the easiest setting, it wasn't an easy game to get to grips with. I shifted to playing this from Fifa '18 and despite being recognisable, it's a starkly different game. This game debuted (in this W.C format) the be-the-pro option, renamed as "Captain Your Country", allowing to take an individual player from selection, right up to lifting the trophy. The game, rather unsurprisingly, offers you the chance to replay the tournament from a decade ago and live it out as you would have liked, or even go back to the qualification years and bring a different team to the tournament. I assumed that, as with 2006, I'd probably play this version of FIFA a couple of times before moving on, but instead I have been playing it for months. I had intended that I would just give my 360 games one more little play before boxing them up to sell.
