FIFA 08 opens the new HD era with cautious handling but stars finally readable on screen. Manager mode is pleasant, the audio backdrop solid, and the first console impression lands far stronger than on last generation.

It is hard to put the controller down once the Manager mode kicks in: you build a squad across several seasons, negotiate transfers and bring young talents through match by match. Licensed leagues are joined by cups, challenges and couch multiplayer that endlessly revives the evenings. This timeless loop of management and competition explains its longevity among football fans.
