It's worth noting right off the bat that Fifa is in its preliminary stages still from the looks of it, around alpha so the game has plenty of time ahead of it. Even still, the experience is already proving to be a pretty entertaining game of soccer, and certainly one that puts last year's FIFA efforts to shame. This time around, players will use the Wii-mote and IR in conjunction, using the analog stick to move the player, and the IR to select defenders, pass the ball to a player or zone on the field, and classic motion flicks for kicking. More advanced techniques such as lob passes seem to be done on the fly, at least for now, and tricks are assigned to the d-pad directions, making it easy to go one-on-one with a defender.
