FIFA 12 is the sports game that has taken E3 by storm, winning numerous awards and revolutionizing* the FIFA experience thanks to unique features including the new Player Impact Engine which replicates the authentic real world tussle of the professional game and ensures that no tackle or collision is the same.

The new Precision Dribbling system ensures that FIFA 12 offers the most authentic footballing experience to date providing unparalleled precision in terms of both pace and control when on the ball. When taking the defensive, players benefit from an expanded level of tactical flexibility because of the new positioning and interception mechanics that reward accurate timing making defending as thrilling an experience as going on the attack. The innovative Pro Player Intelligence system breaks away from the conformity of previous releases where CPU players seemed predictable, bringing forth a new era of player ingenuity and revolutionising game play like never before. PPI now means that team mates not only intelligently respond to the individual circumstances of each game, but they will also be aware of their team mates own capabilities. Choices made will also accurately reflect their own real-world personality and skills.

Additionally for the first time players will be able to immerse themselves in the online service of the EA SPORTS Football Club which will connect them with millions of other FIFA players both socially and competitively. Also included is the much anticipated opportunity for players to bring glory to their favourite team by working in collaboration with thousands of fellow supporters simply by playing the game. Moreover a steady stream of challenge based updates will ensure the game remains as captivating 6 months down the line as it did upon release. - A.B.
