FIFA Soccer 10 (PS3) — Quick Passes, Quicker Regrets

FIFA 10 is the late-2000s sweet spot: slick first touches, snappy passing lanes, and volleys that make you yell at your TV like it owes you rent. The pace is zippy without going arcade, through-balls split defenses like gossip, and the physics finally let scrappy, ugly goals be gorgeous. If you’re tuning up a PS3 stack and planning to buy retro games on Retro Games eXchange, this is the comfort-food footy that still turns best-of-three into best-of-seven.
