Of course you could always set the game to hard and have to judge players by there individual skills rather than have it shown in one overall bar, certainly making the game harder. Regarding the transfer system it’s quite over the top in terms of values and transfer prices, but it is rapidly improving, and it is well worth using scouts if you are new to the game and unsure about players, but in all honesty I tend to be able to pick out the right players quite easily, but I have been playing it for a while now. This game also is quite in depth as far as tactics go, however, regardless of tactics the game does feel too easy if your team has been trained together for so long and they are all of a decent standard, then it just seems like they win just about every match regardless, you really don’t have to buy any players either because with the right coaches your team will progress quite fast as long as they are getting enough games, so you can really just bring in youth players, perhaps it’s just me but I find that the game is far too easy after just one successful season, since your team practically wins every match and there is little reason to buy new players unless you get a serious injury, and even then you may not have to. What we have here is that game engine refined just a little bit more than the last one, with slight tweaks here and there, what you have is a game that is very well presented and easy to navigate, it may be slightly overwhelming at first as there are so many menus at it’s easy to get lost if you hit the wrong button, but other than that it’s easy to navigate through.

By zenszulu | Review Date: JanuI have been one who has watched this series progress on the PS2 since the first game in 2002, and while it’s not great every time it is progressing, well that was until 2004 when the look of the game was improved greatly, it looked far better than the simplistic look of the previous games and a complete overhaul of the game engine.
