Winning Eleven 8

Becks in action

Winning Eleven 8. The holy grail of football gaming has arrived on PC. Since I don't own a PS or an XBOX, its a good thing this came out for PC about the same time as well. Brilliant cos I got it for free thanks to bittorrent and wonderful China. It justs keeps getting better. I'm having problems scoring off the cross but the gameplay, passing, movement is all fantastic. Its just the randomness and realism in the game that makes it so much better than EA Sports' Fifa collection, which only has one advantage in having more real player names and better graphics. WE8 is miles ahead in terms of playability. You don't often score the same goal and the system seems to encourage you to try as much as possible. The cards come less frequently now and you can easily go through a season without getting booked. But, you do get pulled down etc and the ref ignores those as well. Its tough to score and you can go one game 4-0 and lose the next. Brilliant stuff.
