Summary: The game is OK - the graphics look 3 years old to me, though, but the gameplay is OK. It's the documentation where EA drops the ball - almost NOTHING about team management or earning bonuses (or any other aspect of the game) is explained in the paltry manual. Apparently, EA's corporate policy is for users to ask other users in the forums. At least, that's what I was told in an e-mail "answering" my question. If you're a hard-core EA gamer who knows all their games inside and out, you'll probably love this. If this is only your first or second foray into a soccer game (or an EA game at all), I'd start with one that actually explains all it offers.
