Scoring a goal is almost impossible due to the overwhelmingly skilled goalkeepers. Secondly, what’s my opinion about the gameplay now? Well, I still have the same opinion about it as 15 years ago, just as with the graphics: the game is very, very tough. ![]() The sound hasn’t changed much it’s still solid, with decent passing sounds en cheering public. ![]() FIFA ’96 seems much darker (I’d almost say ‘gray’) in comparison to the earlier games, which makes this edition look dull and obsolete. It’s hard to put my finger on the cause of this, but it probably has to do with the colors. While the animation is a little better, I still feel that the overall graphics are worse than in FIFA ’94 and ’95. ![]() However, it isn’t such a big improvement as the “Silicon Graphics MotionDesign animation technology” might suggest. On the backside of the box EA claims that players are modeled with “Silicon Graphics utilizing MotionDesign animation technology.” I don’t what that means, but in comparison with its two predecessors, the animation has improved just a little. The isometric view on the pitch stayed the same. Now, 15 years later, it’s time to re-visit the game again and see if my initial feelings are still justified.įirst, let start off with the graphics. I was very disappointed with it when I was kid and all I could remember was that the game looked very dark and was very hard. Somehow, I don’t have very found memories of FIFA ’96. Even the Sega 32X got a (very scarce and crappy) port of the game. Besides the Genesis the game also hit the Super Nintendo, PC, Game Gear, Game Boy and the ‘next-generation consoles’ of that time, the Sega Saturn and Sony PlayStation. The original game was first released on the Genesis and the ‘95 edition was an exclusive release for Sega’s 16-bit platform, but FIFA ’96 got a multi-platform release. Genre: Sports Developer: Extended Play Productions Publisher: Sony Imagesoft Players: 1-4 Released: 1995įIFA ’96 is the third incarnation of the now-famous series, and it was the first FIFA game that wasn’t in any way exclusive for the Sega Genesis.
