It is also possible to create your own team, where you select players from the world. Game play is pretty easy since this version only uses A, S and D keys for passing and tricks and stuff.
I'm not very good at it. Mainly because recording it with DOSBox was very shock city. Click here for the latest version. For a little more info on how to start a game in DOSBox click here.

The AI is very buggy, in particular CPU players on the attack in your half, will often inexplicably make a long pass back into their defence, often so badly directed that it goes to a member of your team. It is all too easy to play a long ball over the defence for your striker to run onto and score past the goalkeeper. With a little practice the optimum time to shoot becomes apparent and goals being scored eight times out of ten is not uncommon.
Which leads me to perhaps the weakest part of the AI - the goalkeepers. In some ways, particularly shot-stopping, the goalkeepers have improved over FIFA '96 , but they seem very reluctant to leave their goal-lines to collect long passes forward, or to pick up the ball, indeed I have been tackled by the keeper feet first on many occasions when it would be simpler and more realistic for him to simply dive at my feet and take the ball.
Not only that, but the ball goes through the goalkeeper's legs far too often. Another bug I noticed was the CPU kicking off after I had scored with one of my players still in his half of the pitch!!!
Another problem lies with the shoot control being the slide tackle button when you don't have the ball, so when one-on-one with the goalkeeper it is all too easy for you to go to shoot, the keeper to take the ball off you and your shoot action being intepreted as a vicious sliding tackle on the keeper, resulting in at least a booking for the unfortunate player and usually a sending off. FIFA '97 is ultimately disappointing.
Some aspects of the game have been improved over the '96 edition, but all too many have been changed for the worse or just left as they are. The trademarked Motion Blending hasn't achieved its aim of improving response times. I look forward to the updated version, now known as PFA Soccer '97 which should feature English club sides, improved graphics and gameplay.
However, whether we will be blessed with a good PC version we shall have to wait and see. FIFA '97 has some good new features, like the highlight reel at the end of each half, but still lacks features in its companion titles, like saving replays, a small feature, you may say, but one that is great for showing off your skills to your friends and proving that the outrageous events you have just related to them actually happened.
In fact, some might say that a full edit suite for splicing together the game's highlights wouldn't go amiss! I wait and hope that next year's update will move the FIFA brand forward, but this is one step forward, one to the side and two steps back. Try the demo before you even consider buying. New PC owners are probably best waiting for some of the many football games due for release in the coming months.
One thing is certain, you'll need a not inconsiderable amount of patience to master the control system, yet alone the game. Developer EA Canada. Publisher Electronic Arts.
