Have you guys noticed that Cech's and Buffon's ratings are completely out of whack? Cech is a 64 and Buffon is a 66. It doesn't seem right to me...

I thought that was just my game lol.

I am impressed, the game is smooth, still have not managed to score yet, but that is to be expected as I am making my adjustment to Manual. I love the new shooting, have had some VERY close screamers(hit the bar once) but I have developed into a bad habit of taking too many long range shots.

I just won 9-8 (Barca vs. Marseille) in pk's on World Class, so I was kind of worried that they were too easy to score, but reading this makes me feel slightly better.

message from London... just played about 5 games in a row... first of all... 3 minute halves so feels like a real demo (was 2min last year).

i am only going to highlight two things.

first, lob passes work amazing. harder, lower, faster, more reliable... enough said. needed to be fixed. it is...

second, skilled dribbling. uh oh... are you kidding? when you guys finally get your hands on the demo, do this one thing. get the ball to messi near the corner. press L2+R2 (skilled)... then see how you can shift and maneuver. in 2009 technical players could never get out of tight jams, they were always bullied by the bigger guys... this year, wow... messi will be a beast. its so fluid its amazing.

have to say didnt notice 360 drib that much but they say you cant go back... so i will go back.

this is going to be a sick year for the footie!!

I'm loving it so far. I was never able to score a goal like this in '09!

Really?

Most of my goals from 09 were from outside the box. Hard shots, accuracy shots. High schot, low shots. Most though, were further.

Congratulations, makes for a much better gaming experience!

I created a Euro Xbox Live account and was able to download the demo and play it on my U.S. account. I'm pretty new to the Next-Gen soccer world. I watched a tutorial video on how to do special moves but I'm finding them difficult to pull off.

Just scored my first goal, Playing as Barca against Chelsea. The video doesn't do the goal justice, I couldn't figure out how to get it to show the setup for the goal instead of the celebration afterwards.

Anyway, came off a long throw-in, headed to Xavi, he beats a defender and rifles it into the top right corner.

EA Sports: FIFA 10 DEMO: Barcelona 1 - 1 Chelsea

Loving the demo so far, it's looking like this will justify a purchase.
