I couldn't recommend this game any more if I tried. Buy this game right now. You will never regret it.

This is one of the most entertaining, fun, and addictive games I've ever played. Just like its predecessor, this game provides hours upon hours of entertainment. The physics are superb, the gameplay is easy to pick up and thrilling to master, and it looks beautiful. It's a game that definitely gets better as you improve, which makes it more and more fun as you play it. There's something extremely addicitve about playing football/soccer with cars, and with the addition of boost, acrobatics, and flying, it just never stops being fun. It's one of those games where you always say "one more game" over and over again. There's plenty of different gamemodes to play, including season mode, drill training, online ranked, unranked, private, split-screen, split-screen online, and a bunch more.

Pros:
  • The game looks beautiful
  • The physics are spot on, so the game relies entirely on your own skill, with no automatic passing and shooting. You're on your own, which makes making saves and scoring goals so much more satisfying.
  • It's so addictive...like really addictive...like "oh my god is it 5am already?" addictive.
  • It's incredibly well optimised, as evident by the generous system requirements. You don't need a fantastic PC to play this game on high settings, but it still looks and plays beautifully at 60fps with not-as-good PCs
  • There is a bunch of customisation features, including body types, skins, hats, boost trails, tires, and whatnot.
  • Rank-based matchmaking, so you actually play people of similar ability, rather than being bored getting thrashed or thrashing other players
  • There's cross-play with PS4 users
  • It's a fantastic party game to play with your friends on split-screen, or online
  • The gameplay is flawless, making it really easy for new players to pick up, but allowing for an insanely high skill ceiling where the top players can really pull of some amazing skills

Cons:
  • It will ruin other aspects of your life, such as your social life and work life with its addictiveness.

Score: 11/10
