FIFA 13 is a soccer sim that gives players the ability to chase glory with the favourite teams and build their own line-ups as well as challenge friends in one-on-one games.
It is the 20th edition of the video game franchise that began with FIFA International Soccer back in 1993 and it gives players a realistic feel of the beautiful game on their PC. In the late 2000s, Konami's Pro Evolution Soccer series had secured dominance in the football sim market, but Electronic Arts came back with vengeance when it launched FIFA 11 in the Autumn of 2010 and FIFA 13 continues to use that game's blueprint, but with a host of added features and tweaks.
Improved graphics and new in-game abilities
A key improvement of FIFA 13 on the previous year's version is better 3D modelling. The game has licenses with all the world's leading clubs and features realistic looking kits as well as players have been designed to look exactly like them in real life.
In-game capabilities have also been given an overall score, with first touch control being a very welcome addition. This changes the way in which players control the ball, taking into account their abilities and attributes. Previously, ball control was done automatically, giving average of players a first touch which matched the likes of Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi, but now gamers will have to pick their passes in a more careful and realistic way as slip ups could lead to the opposition getting a scoring opportunity.
Like with tactical defending in FIFA 12, the change may irritate some gamers but it really is just a matter of practice.
Beating defenders while dribbling has also been made more technical. Whereas a simple directional change was enough to get past players in previous versions, now more complex moves are needed.
Collisions between players are now realistic and this can be used to your advantage as you can jostle attackers out of the way while defending and shield the ball more easily when in possession.
Artificial intelligence when attacking
One of the big problems with both FIFA 11 and FIFA 12 was that your attackers could get crowded out when getting close to the opposition's penalty box. You really had to work the space and have a grasp of where your other players would automatically be placed.
Now attacking AI means players have greater independent movement and react better to what is happening in the game. Some are even better at timing their runs, meaning there is less change of being caught offside.
Free kicks have also been improved as you now have a range of set piece options, including being able to place a trio of players close to the ball so that the opposition does not know which one is going to take the kick.
Issues
While FIFA 13 promises hours of fun, it sadly isn't without its problems. One of the major issues PC users have encountered is that the game can freeze or fail to start on occasion.
This does not affect everyone so don't let this put you off, but it is an extremely frustrating thing to encounter.
Some users have also encountered players being missing during a game. Their cursor is still there and they can still make a pass, but the player themselves is completely invisible.
FIFA 13 is now out of date and has been superseded by FIFA 14 and 15.

To be successful in FIFA Manager 13, fans must focus on the core of their team through a new feature called Team Dynamics that encourages players to pay close attention to player relationships, egos and goals of individuals within the team. Managers get an overview of team hierarchy, rivalry, personality clashes, and more. In addition, two new features—Team Matrix and Hierarchy Pyramid—enable fans to quickly identify which players are having challenges and their impact on team dynamics. Plus, new individual player objectives have a special role, and teams will only be successful with enough team leaders and players working towards the same objectives. From balancing player rivalries to spending enough time understanding and setting player expectations, FIFA Manager 13 will push players to perfect the art of team management.
“We really wanted our fans to experience the breadth of challenges real-world managers face in developing a homogenous and successful team,” said Gerald Köhler, Lead Designer of the FIFA Manager 13. “Players must now be thoroughly researched and their potential impact on a team considered before making a signing, just like real-world football.”
Once again, the transfer market is the heartbeat of FIFA Manager 13. Players now consider more than 40 criteria when making their decision on whether or not to transfer to a new club. Using the new Squad Planner feature, players can plan their future team in detail, see the impact of integrating potential newcomers into existing teams and try out new players.
The game also takes a visual leap forward with higher resolution graphics, numerous new fan banners that create a livelier atmosphere in the stadiums, and fans now wear shirts, scarves and jackets that show off their team colours.
Football fans have once again helped design features in the game through the “Your Feature!” promotion. Several thousand participants voted and chose six features, including 'Shooting Stars During The Season', 'Buy-back Options', 'Regional Talent Scouts', and a “Dynamic Development League”.
