did you do the training stuff? it really does help.


No, I just played the second half of the intro game while it finished installing. Then I went to bed. I'll play it again soon. I missed all but one penalty kick.

Yeah, I whiffed a lot of easy goals too before I got the controls down. Hang in there.


I'm really good at kicking it into the crowd.

The longer you hold O, the higher the arc of the ball when he kicks it.

The longer you hold X, the higher the arc of the ball when he kicks it.


I'm also good at kicking a piddly little dribbler to the goalie's feet. It's in the in between I need to master.

I hate fetch quests, and Spider-Man looks like one big fetch quest, with a bit of photography thrown in. Pass.

That's fair. I'm getting NBA 2k19 today too and I have no idea when I'm going to have time to play it.

So I'm pretty in love with FIFA, especially now that I figured out how to turn on Pro Camera in Career Mode. It's a big leap forward for the level of action/drama, because Career Mode games force you to play ONLY as your character, and then the Pro Camera gets pretty dynamic with its movement and zooming. Skip to about 4:35 in the video below to see what I'm talking about:



With six minute game halves, and finally knowing my way around the menu system, I can fire up the console and have a riveting game all in the span of 25 minutes, which is about perfect for me.
