Even Konami's efforts on the GBA so far have been miles better overall, and it ditched the platform for its football games a long time ago. It is quite unforgivable how EA has had several attempts now at doing football on the little portable, yet never seems to upgrade the game in any discernible way. What is the point of having a choice of 510 teams when the game itself plays so slow, proves to be ridiculously easy and only has a handful of playing options and a two-player-only multi-player mode? For £29.99 you would certainly expect something of a decent quality here, but unfortunately Exient fails to deliver, despite the teams supposedly improved work on the 07 DS build. Yet the looping seems far too frequent.īut that could be forgiven if the game itself was good enough, right? Possibly, but this is not the case for FIFA 07 on the GBA anyway. Woeful.And the selection of tunes played on menu screens is equally limited, although this was to be expected as the GBA could hardly cope with many real songs. And if you think maybe the crowd atmosphere will alleviate some of the pain, then think again as guess what? There is no crowd atmosphere! Yes, amazingly enough games are played in practically a miserable state with silence for prolonged periods and then random annoying noises that are meant to be cheers, and other than the odd little sound effects of the ball being kicked there is little else to talk about. Try to imagine play football underwater and you will get the general idea. The camera follows the game perfectly well, unlike its 16-bit brethren, however this is only because the pace of the game has been vastly reduced to something that can only be likened to that of a snail going at full pelt. Why? Because FIFA existed across the MegaDrive and Super Nintendo 16-bit formats without too many hitches and certainly did not look like someone had just vomited on the screen. People may say that the Game Boy Advance is far too weak to pull off the proper FIFA experience, but that argument is totally unjust in this particular case. It has to be a joke that or the game is unfinished. I picked up this game and thought to myself, no way is this serious.
