Perfect game for non-football fans
As the other reviews on this page mention, FIFA Football 2005 is a perfect addition to a football fan's game collection. However, I'm not such a fan. So, what does someone like me think of this football game for the GameCube?
The graphics are simply good. The players are individually recognizable, even during gameplay. There isn't really a sense of ball control, but it's not just a matter of 'press a button, play ball'. And without tactics, you definitely won't reach the goal.
One annoying point that every football game has: the game remembers which buttons you've pressed. So, if you accidentally press 'shoot' twice to a teammate, they will immediately shoot the ball further. Mastering the controller is therefore very important here.
I haven't really explored the career option. I prefer a quick game of football. For that, this game is perfectly suitable.
So, if you're not a football fan but still looking for an entry point into this sports world, this is your game.
