	2006 FIFA World Cup (ps2: 2006): Reviews
		If you have FIFA from last year, and you're not worried about having the official World Cup Germany licensing and such, or the new Global Challenge mode, then there's isn't that big a reason to upgrade as the gameplay is pretty similar.
		As a standalone football game without all the World Cup-related fluff and filling, EA have provided something which is actually good fun to play (both off and online), certainly not like their frustratingly average efforts over recent years.
		All of the things EA did right with FIFA World Cup 2006 are overshadowed by the simple truth that what should be the most fun part of the game -- having exciting scoring chances -- is completely negated by shoddy game performance near the nets.

		FIFA 2002 was, in my opinion, the best sports game of 2001 and maybe the best soccer game ever.

		I know some people who enjoy playing for the Cup and possibly matching up with a friend along the way will be disappointed they left this out.

		The FIFA World Cup 2006 was the most exciting and brilliant tournament in football history: passion, accion and goals.
