A range of new save animations and improved intelligence means goalkeepers are more capable of responding to rebounds and deflections.

New character models and body rigging mean players appear more lifelike, powerful and athletic, while their kits will become dirty with mud and grass. The action seems, on first impressions, to be smooth, with good matchmaking and plenty of scope to play how you want to play.Arjen Robben and Yaya Toure seem to be especially adept at executing this kind of extravagance, with even missed shots coming back into play following a fumble by the keeper. What’s worse is that this will frequently coincide with your midfielders haring towards the penalty area, leaving acres of field for your opponent to race into and prompt a dangerous counter-attack. It’s still a game built by people hell-bent on reflecting every aspect of the beautiful game, but this time they’ve remembered that FIFA can also be fun. There's a slight improvement in a keeper's ability to save long strikes, but they still tend to concede the same percentage of shots as last season; the overall impact on gameplay has been balanced in such a way so as not to disrupt the established difficulty of netting a goal. Players seem to turn and react faster without losing the ball, and it’s easier than ever to get through to the box without relying on special tricks, though this remains a game that favours fast, accurate passing over ridiculous solo runs.

If you played the last two FIFAs tired of getting mired in the midfield, bored witless by the slow, methodical pace, then you’ll probably find this year’s FIFA the best since the glory days of FIFA 12. The goal with FIFA 15, as with almost every other FIFA game, is to replicate the most interesting parts of what you see on TV, hence the ability to score goals of sublime lavishness. It’s a game that, at times, gets closer to the real sport than ever, but at others, is clearly a long way from capturing the nuance, the ebb and flow, and the glorious unpredictability of The Beautiful Game. Close control has been improved, making it easier – particularly for flair players – to retain the ball, even at speed. There are wrinkles to be ironed out here, but this is a promising base on which a new generation of FIFA can build.FIFA 15 sets a high bar for sports games, and FIFA 16 will need to work twice as hard to clear it next year. And yet at the same time they’re prone to horrendous mistakes, letting daisy-cutters through their legs and exhibiting wildly unpredictable behaviour when the ball breaks loose in the penalty area.

Headed clearances are the most irritating of the game’s scripted moments: it doesn’t matter which position a defender is in, or how much pressure they’re under, they’ll always be able to head the ball a good 20-30 yards clear of the box.
