FIFA 2003 is by far the best game in the FIFA franchise. As soon as I heard about it coming out I couldn't wait. I wasn't dissatisfied. The graphics are GREAT and the controls, although they take a little bit of time to get used to, are smooth. Also, the player detail is amazing! I am a fan of the German club Schalke 04 and in addition to having it in the game I could recognize several of the players right away just looking at their faces! And with over 400 teams in the game this is THE soccer game to have. I would reccomend this game to anybody who wants a fun, exciting, realistic soccer gaming experience.
