Product Description
Amazon.com
The 2001 edition of the EA Sports FIFA franchise features the moves of six top players who were motion captured in Holland. Other features include improved facial animation, more joints in player skeletons, and supporting-player audio when the ball is out of play. EA Sports promises defenders that mark better, goalies that play smarter, new animations, smoother transitions, blending between animations, precise contact points in player-ball collisions, natural movement in turns, speed variations, and players showing different urgency around the pitch. The controls will stay similar to those of FIFA 2000 except for some skill moves. Linesmen, coaches, and bench players are animated, as are the crowd members, some of whom have props. Because Fédération Internationale de Football Association (FIFA) licenses the game, it includes authentic kits and team logos, plus full player names. There are over 60 national teams, and during season play, second-division club teams can be promoted. You can organize multiplayer games between two computers via a modem, several computers over a network, or over the Internet with the EA Sports matchmaking service.

Something better: the computer defense and the guard movements.
PLEASE EA SPORT PROGRAMMERS: Dont work so much with the video, its already good, make time on the essence of the game, it needs it !!!.
My team was under pressure. A defender successfully kicked the ball away and it went straight to a forward who was facing only the goalkeeper. What are going to do in this sitiuation? I assume any sane player would hold on to the ball and go inside the box and score. BUT this game isn't made for SANE player because it will "help" your forward to do a volley shot right after the ball goes to him. And, as someone already mentioned, we have "superman" goalkeeper in this game who can easily save such a shot. The reverse is even worse! If your denfender receives an air ball, he'll NOT control it but shoot back right away to the goalkeeper and create some funny disaster consequence. So much for your "help", fifa, thanks a bunch.
Now, it doesn't matter whether you are Rivaldo or a nameless player, you will never be able to control the ball near the border lines.
And the worse part may be the referee (This defect still lasts until FIFA 2002, and FIFA WORLD CUP 2002). You may get the ball from a player then run for a few secs as if nothing happens, but who knows "the man in black" will call you back and give you a red card. If such a referee is present in a real soccer game, he might be beaten up right away
IF YOU ARE NOT INSANE, IGONORE THIS GAME, IT'S NOT WORTH A CENT.
The Fifa series is the only good choice for you football needs. There has been no serious competition for EA Sports in the genre. All the competing products have mostly been flops. Microsoft tried in 96 and again in 2000, both of them have been failed attempts to emulate a football match.
Fifa 2001 features many internatal teams and leagues. Leagues include the English Premiership, Italian Seria A to the Turkish first division. Looking at the league listings show an obvious missing league, the Argentine league. With the likes of teams like River Plate and Boca Juniors, the Argentina league should be there way before the turkish league.
You are able to play as any team for any league and complete a season. During the season, you also play in the corresponding cups, like the Champions league. E.g. For Manchestar Utd., if you play with them in the english premiership, you get to play the regular english season, champions league and the FA Cup. Also, at the end of the season, you can play another season and see some of the newly promoted teams in the fray and the demoted teams disappear. This really adds to the realism to the game.
Other modes of play include friendlies, penalty shootouts and training matches. You are also allowed to make your own custom cup or league. In the friendly mode, you can put any of the leugue teams or international teams against each other. There are near 100 international teams, with everything from Brazil and France to the USA. Noteable missing teams which SHOULD have been included are the Ukraine, with big players like shevchenco (I know I mispelt it), Jamaica, who made it to World Cup 98 and Trinidad and Tobago who have great players like Dwight York, Shakka Hislop and Russel Latapy.
In the actual game, you will be surprised by the amount of detail in the stadium and grounds. The crowd is constantly jumping or clapping with all having a unique look for each person. There are also flags in the crowd. There are security guards, camera men, players and managers on the bench with some warming up and even a linesman. The players themselves look great and most people resemble their human counterparts. This is still a problem of the Fifa series but alot has been done to try and improve this. Also, users can make their own faces and download them.
The pace of gameplay is very adjustable. Some people prefer a slower ball movement, more of a simulation while some people prefer fast arcade play. The game speed is easily changeable. Playing fifa 2001 is very realistic. The movements of the players look real. You can do all kinds of moves, from long passes to bicycle kicks.
You cannot adjust the key setup for the game, so if you are unsatisfied with the keyboard setup, well, tuff luck. The layout for the keyboard is great in my opinion. I also use a Gravis Gamepad pro and that layout is superb also. I would suggest using this gamepad for fifa as this is one of the most common for the game (The other most common pad, the Microsoft Sidewinder Gamepad 1 was stopped in production from Microsoft so luck of getting one is slim)
The sound is Fifa is excellent. People who have played Fifa 2000 have complained about the annoying American commentators so ea has reverted back to the old english duo, John Motsen and Mark Lawrence. I don't know what it is, but football ain't football unless you have english commentators. The commentators are excellent in their comments, they are very accurate. The talk to each other alot and they correct their own mistake. E.g. If I have a player making a solo run, John might say " Here he goes and no one can stop him now " and if I loose possesion immediately he says " I spoke to fast there." The ambience of the crowd is well presented as the chant, scream, clap at the appropriate times.
For all the Fifa veterans, you will immediately realise this is a step foward in the fifa series. EA has finally decided to listen to us instead of doing their own thing. They have starting including the stadiums again but are limited to 5 for now. They have added a shot power bar so it is more realistic when taking shots (it is very easy to shoot over bar), the have improved character faces, they fixed the shot arrow, there is online play, they made the pitch bigger, the crowd sounds bias for home matches, the refreeing works much better, the logos on the shirts are there (The nike ticks are really nike ticks) and they have fixed the commentry. I would say that the Fifa series will only get better from here.
The are only a few problems besides the missing teams. This is mostly some incorrect rosters and logos. E.g. In Hibernian in the Scottish league, Russel Latapy is not there and he almost always starts. The good thing is that people can edit the teams, shirts, pants and shoes (there are third party jersey editors.
In conlusion, Football is the most international sport in the world. With the USA women's team enjoying success, football is growing daily. If you want to play football on your computer (it is also on playstation and n64) then this is the way to go.
