FIFA Soccer 12 is a soccer game in which the player controls the athletes directly. As usual, the game includes a comprehensive license package allowing the player to control a real-life squad in a tournament. However, the career mode is the game’s heart: The player, as manager, a single athlete, or a coach, leads his club to the top for up to 15 seasons. Each role has a unique set of tasks and obstacles.
The most noticeable differences between FIFA 12 (console version) and FIFA 11 (console version) include a new physics engine, a new defense system, and the so-called “Pro Player Intelligence,” which means athletes are aware of their athletes’ skills and base their judgments on them.
