The previous games were very gritty, almost sad in the way they portrayed playing football in the titular streets that the series calls home. Incoming! The first and most outwardly obvious change that the team at EA made has to do with the overarching visual style of FIFA Street. There are new moves, new grooves, and an all new GameBreaker that fans of the Street lineage will hopefully enjoy. We just recently got our grubby football (not soccer) loving hands on a fresh build of FIFA Street 3 - the series' first attempt on next-gen consoles - at two separate EA press events. The first two entries in the Street brand's soccer offering were passable at best, but the monotony of the trick-based gameplay overshadowed the core soccer roots and wore thin after only a few hours.

FIFA Street has always been the arcade alternative to FIFA Soccer, the more hardened simulation experience of the EA Sports football (Americans read: soccer) lineup. There's a simulation SKU - that would be the NBA 2Ks, Maddens, and Pro Evolution Soccers of the world - there's an arcade SKU - the new NFL Tour, The Bigs, and the entire Hot Shots library fall under this category - and then there are games that try to blend the two genres together - see NBA Live and Rockstar Table Tennis for prime examples. It seems that every activity whether it be professional, collegiate, or otherwise sticks to the same basic structure. Fill up your Gamebreaker bar and trigger Touch Screen controlled team trick moments to increase your chances of scoring a goal.The formula of sports gaming hasn't changed much over time.
