Submitted by Matti Darowski

This game is top-class. Absouletely mouth watering graphics, fantastic gameplay and very hard to get off. I've been playing for hours on end since it was released. The online Battle of the Nations is fantastic. The gameplay is very realistic, and a definite 10/10!

Submitted by matthew sykes

Received this game on Wednesday thanks to Game's quick delivery service :D This is a must buy game! The crowd are more alive, they chant real England songs such as "God Save The Queen" New features have been added to the game, when you score you can do your own celebration. Movement of the players is really good, they don't get in each others ways. There are more and much betters ways to finish scoring. New modes are added to it, the Captain Your Country mode is really good. The new scoring system for overall countries is brilliant, so you can actually see what country is the best. This is a top buy for someone who loves there country and wants to get them to the top, plus the game overall is just superb.

5 star rating!
