Should I buy an Xbox just to play FIFA? I've been itching to play for months now...



I shouldn't though. The last thing I need is more distraction

That's basically what I did a couple years back. Ended up getting sucked into Forza and GTA and all that fun stuff.

I can't make financial decisions for you, but I can say that I like this year's FIFA better than recent editions.

I assume they're pretty rough; haven't really dug into FUT yet though.

it's not even the money aspect of it, they're pretty cheap these days. I just don't want to get sucked into video games. I put too many hours into that shit when I was back in college

I think you can play it for a long time without even bothering with DLC. I easily see myself sinking >50 hours into it, and I don't intend on messing with FUT.

would you recommend it to someone who's not a fan of sports?

I was thinking of either getting FIFA 18 or NBA 2K18

I can't compare it to 2K. I could see where someone who isn't big on sports would have a lot of fun with this, but you'd be better off probably just getting Rocket League

Nothing wrong with video games, but right now, would rather do other things with my free time. Well, not rather, but I know I should.

Is lack of defense (rather the emphasis on offense) as big as a difference as I heard for PvP from 17? Is it too easy to score?

Also, when near the box on offense, if you're able to keep the ball there for awhile, does the pressure on the defense increase? In 17, it seemed like offensive players became pretty stagnant at that point.

I would say that the fact games against the AI are so much more open makes it a more enjoyable experience. You spend less time chasing the ball aimlessly, more time on the ball or actually defending a threat.

I haven't played against other humans yet, but the shift against the AI is really huge. CBs back off a lot, and the wide defenders take some really aggressive and dumb angles to the ball.

Yes it's the easy to score. My friend and I are getting more goals in one half (demo so 4 minutes) than we usually do in a 16 minute game in Fifa 17.

The defense is useless. I love the new movement with the L1 + Left stick but the defense definitely needs a buff.
