If you're a PlayStation 2 owner even remotely interested in soccer games, chances are that you're a fan of either the FIFA or Winning Eleven titles from EA Sports and Konami, respectively. It also stands to reason that, as a fan of those series, it would take a very special game to convince you that your loyalties were misplaced. Enter World Tour Soccer 2005 from Sony Computer Entertainment Europe's London Studio. The game boasts around twice as many playable teams from around the world as FIFA 2004, it features the real player names that are absent from the Winning Eleven games, and it offers a number of varied gameplay modes--some of which support up to eight players simultaneously. It's a pity, then, that World Tour Soccer 2005 plays such an ugly version of the beautiful game that it's unlikely you'll play it for long enough to see even half of what it offers. |
