 Great Soccer game! July 18, 2000

I love this game! My computer's a little slow (I'm running on minimum requirements) but the game works fine. You can hook up a game controller to your computer and play from that. I tried it. It's great, except with the game controller I have I can't do a few special moves (I think it's something wrong with the controller, though. It sometimes messes up on other games.) If you have the special controller, you can play against someone else on the same computer. You can also play against them on a network, and I think you can online (but I haven't tried that.) You can save your best shots, your greatest moves, whatever, and see instant replays of them any time! You can make your own team (It's not invincible; each player has a certain number of skill points that can be distributed to different categories. You can even change players' names and uniforms!) You can do tournaments, and with three levels of play, you can move up (on the lowest level, you can outrun the other team. It's good for learning how to play, but also pretty cheap. Fortunately, on the higher levels the other team can really run!) You can do lots of trick shots, or purposely foul the other team. You can change the settings so that your players never get tired out, or so that the ref doesn't give you red cards for fouls. You can change the stadium you play in, the time of day you play in, and even the weather (have you ever played a soccer game in the snow? be careful not to confuse snowflakes with soccer balls.) In addition to all that, you can change the camera views from a view from the goal to a sky-high view to even a view where you ARE the ball (that's fun!) Whatever you choose, you'll have a great time, and you can never really beat the game, since there's always a higher skill level to play against. You'll always have a satisfying game of soccer.
Se siente un poco mejor que el FIFA 2000 June 18, 2000
La diferencia entre el 99 y el 2000 desde mi optica es el detalle en los jugadores (que en el 2000 es muy distinto) y los movimientos del 99 que son mucho mas "smooth", el game play de este juego es fenomenal, no deja que te marees... :) Aparte, no cuesta nada!
 Excellent Game that could be better June 14, 2000

I have played Fifa 99 since the day it was released. It is a game that provides hours of fun-filled entertainment for soccer fans and other gamers alike. The graphics are eye catching and absolutely stunning when run on a 3D-card equipped computer. With these awesome graphics and with its simple controls playing the game is sheer excitement. Easy to master yet still challenging it would seem that this game is going to be a classic. One thing I found disappointing was the fact that at the end of a winning season one does not automatically advance to cup play. In fact, the way that the entire cup system is set up could be better. In Fifa 2000 this problem has been fixed and one can automatically advance to Cup play and even build a career. Since EA Sports has taken a step back in graphics with the 2000 release, I would still have to opt for Fifa 99, an excellent game that will not be beaten by newer, yet inferior soccer games.
