DESCRIPTION

EA's four-on-four, arcade-style slant on the world's most popular sport makes its DS debut with FIFA Street 2. Players can get their kicks by challenging more than 320 professional stars on 20 national teams or by competing against an international assortment of real-life street athletes in multiple game modes. Juggling moves and other feats of agility can be performed using the touch-screen display, which functions like the right analog "trick stick" found in the console versions.

The main aspect of play involves challenging a series of street teams in multiple underground tournaments. Players begin by creating a team and outfitting each athlete with a choice of hairstyles, shoes, and accessories. Team members will gradually build on their abilities over time, or they can be substituted with more skilled athletes from defeated opponents. Wireless support is available for competing head-to-head in an assortment of locales, including the DS-exclusive venue of Sydney, Australia. ~ Scott Alan Marriott, All Game Guide
