TIF is back!! and better than ever! FIFA watch out!
Might not have the licensed kits, and some of the players (such as the dutch players in the game) but it plays an excellent and enjoyable game of football :) well done London Studio! The skill moves are limited but can be great when you pull them off and side step around that on coming defender! Also the shooting system is pretty good with the shots going basically where you want them to! Free kick system is possibly the best one on a football game! direct it and bend it into a corner away from the keeper!! sheer brilliance! The real 3D players now look better than ever and much more like their real life counter parts! And the ability to (for the first time using a real picture) put your actual self into the game! This is genius from Sony :) I was amazed just how frighteningly real me and a mate looked on the game after using the Eyetoy Cameo! woww!! it looks great! I think Pro Evo 4 will beat it for gameplay though as Pro Evo 4 looks fantastic but this is a great effort from Sony and London Studio! Well done guys! keep up the good work. One thing I would suggest with the Cameo is to allow the player to make more adjustments to his hair style/colour and also the skin tones because if you dont get the lighting just right the face can look too dark or like a ghost! but other than that fantastic work!!!! Sony please allow us to use a hard drive in future to save things onto!!!

This is Football
After buying the game today (2nd October 2004), i have discovered a new and different view to football. I was shocked at the quality of the graphics and the likeness to most world-class players, eg, Ronaldhino, Deco, Ronaldo, Henry because they are superb. TIF has brought back what most FIFA fans want- the ability to dive and the skill moves. Using your players, you can skill past your opponent and break down the wings and put in a cross suitable for your attackers to volley home! The game has more licensed teams so you have the full spanish leagues kits and players. I havent seen Italy and England yet but im sure some of them will have fully licensed kits.
The best feature on the game is the EYETOY CAMEO. This is where using ur eye toy you can take a picture of ur face in 2 positions so the game can register your face. It creates a graphic image of ur face. This is then available to be used in CUSTOM where you can create a new team with your face in it.
There are also alot of competitions to play in- if u r successful then u will gain tokens which will buy you old teams and different game plays which can be used in exhibition mode.
Overall, this is a very good game. However if game play is your main attraction to a football game, DO NOT buy TIF. It is hard to tackle and your passing skills are poor. Though compared to other soccer games (excluding PES and FIFA) it is alot better.
In my opinion, stick with PES or FIFA, depending where your loyalties lie.

Money saver!
This saved me tons of money. I am a tight person, and I must be to confess to it, and a brand new football game for £16 is great. The value for money is excellent, and although the game itself is not as good as FIFA 2005, it has far better value for money. Great.
