FIFA 2018 aka the controller killer is out now

The 2018 update to the the reason 90% of gamers replace their controllers and wives/girlfriends remain undecided on which they hate more (FIFA or side chicks) has just been released into the market and everyone is absolutely bonkers with excitement.

Until they remember how much the Xbox One or PS4 controllers now retail for in the country.Controller Killer 18 FIFA 18 is a sports simulation video game in the FIFA series of video games, developed and published by Electronic Arts and was released worldwide on 29 September 2017 for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, Xbox 360, Xbox One and Nintendo Switch to generally favorable reviews according to review aggregator Metacritic . It is the 25th installment in the FIFA series. Real Madrid forward Cristiano Ronaldo appears as the cover athlete.

In their review which rates it 7/10, GameSpot wrote, "From the variety of game modes on offer and how everything's presented, to the constant updates in FUT's Team of the Week, Daily Objectives, and discussion of real-world happenings in commentary, FIFA 18 captures the world of football and confidently translates it into a video game. On the pitch, however, EA's soccer series is still lagging far behind PES 2018's more fluid, satisfying football”. IGN on the other hand gave it an 8.1/10, saying, "A sharp focus on attack but few new additions make this a spectacular if somewhat shallow experience.

The PlayStation 4 and Xbox One versions include a continuation of "The Journey" a story-based mode that was originally in FIFA 17 entitled "The Journey: Hunter Returns". The PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 versions, known as FIFA 18: Legacy Edition, do not contain any new gameplay features aside from updated kits and rosters.

FIFA 18 comes in 3 editions: Standard Edition, Ronaldo Edition and Icon Edition which retail for $60, $80 and $100 respectively. 

As at the time of posting, the Standard Edition retails for NGN32k which I deem something of a rip off considering $60 converts to roughly NGN22k. Any Naija fan looking to purchase this is better off buying a soft copy straight from the Xbox or Playstation store.

before i go, i have to ask, which is your poison, PES 18 or FIFA 2018? I've been more of a PES fan but everyone I know is on that FIFA wave so i'm looking at jumping ship.
