Description

* Tagline: "All The Clubs, Leagues and Cups"
* Covers: Dennis Bergkamp (Main), Christian Vieri (Italy), Rui Costa (Portugal), Fabien Barthez (France), Fernando Morientes (Spain), Ahn Jung-Hwan (South Korea), Olaf Thon (Germany)
* Released for: Windows, PlayStation, Game Boy Color, Nintendo 64

While the indoor mode is was no longer featured, the gameplay's fluidity and responsiveness was increased. The increasing number of websites dedicated to the game and a larger number of leagues (which came to be a problem when the owners of the rights to the Portuguese League tried to pull the game from the shelves locally) ensured good sales. Graphically, it is a major improvement over FIFA '98, with the inclusion of basic facial animations and different players' heights as well as certain other cosmetic features such as improved kits and emblems, although they are unlicensed. Gamers may also create their own custom cups and leagues and select the teams they wish to play against. This game also had the feature of manually changing the ref's strictness, allowing major injuries and fouls to go un-noticed. Fatboy Slim's The Rockafeller Skank is the music used in the intro.

FIFA '99 also features an elite league called the 'European Super League' in which 20 top teams from across Europe battle it out in a league format.

Gameplay is fast, simple, and has a clear arcade feeling which failed to keep hardcore fans happy, especially with rival games such as International Superstar Soccer gaining in reputation. The leagues also feature many unlicensed teams, which substitute their real names for those of their home cities. For the first time, U.S. Major League Soccer clubs are included. As for the gameplay, a new set piece system was introduced, whereby pressing a certain key results in a cross to a particular teammate. This system was used until the 2002 edition. It also features a passing indicator, the colour of which varies depending on the direction of the pass and potential obstacles - red means a certain wrong pass, yellow means there is a 50/50 chance of success, and green indicates that possession will probably not be lost in the course of the pass. The game also features a special team block with classic squads, club teams and national teams, ranging from world famous lineups (such as Real Madrid from the 1950s and the Brazil team from 1970) to less well-known teams (such as IFK Gothenburg from the 1980s or Rosenborg BK and Busan Daewoo Royals from the 1990s).

Robbie Williams provided an original theme song with It's Only Us. This song was also featured on the first and only FIFA soundtrack CD released by EMI. He allegedly did this on the condition that the football team he supports, Port Vale, was included in the game, which it was, as a special feature team.

A Nintendo 64 beta version of FIFA 2000 exists though the game was not officially released for this platform.

Description

* Covers: Paul Scholes (UK), Thierry Henry (France), Lothar Matthaus (Germany), Edgar Davids (Netherlands),Shimon Gershon(Israel) Filippo Inzaghi (Italy), Ricardo Sá Pinto (Portugal), Gaizka Mendieta (Spain), Theodoros Zagorakis (Greece), Ben Olsen (US), Leonardo (Brazil), Ko Jong-Su (South Korea), Gheorghe Hagi (Romania)

This title had a new graphics engine which allows each team to have its own kit, and for some players, their own unique faces. Doing away with ordinary coloured pennants as club emblems, the license includes official club emblems for the first time, although certain leagues, like the Dutch league, are unlicensed. Slightly tweakable physics made the game a modding favorite for its fan community. The game also includes the entire Österreichische Fußball-Bundesliga (Austrian Bundesliga) as a playable league for the first time. Moby headlines the soundtrack with his single "Bodyrock" serving as the title track. A "hack" feature is included, where the player can press R1 to attempt an intentional foul, such a high sliding tackle. This is the first, and so far only, game to use a "scratch and sniff" CD, which smells of turf.

A Nintendo 64 beta version of FIFA 2001 developed by THQ exists, though the game was not officially released for this platform.

Power bars for shots and passes were introduced, and dribbling reduced in order to attain a higher challenge level. The power bar can also be customised to suit the gamer's preference. The game also includes club emblems for many more important European clubs as well as for major Dutch clubs such as PSV Eindhoven, Ajax Amsterdam and Feyenoord although there is still no official Dutch league. A card reward system licensed from Panini was also introduced where, after winning a particular competition, a star player card is unlocked. There is also a bonus game with the nations that had automatically qualified for the 2002 World Cup (France, Japan and South Korea), in which the player would tries to improve the FIFA ranking of their chosen team by participating in international friendlies.

Fans were anticipating another FIFA: Road To The World Cup containing all international teams and the option of squad selection. However, many of the international teams in the game are not licensed (some of them down to the players' names like the Netherlands as well as minor footballing countries e.g. Latvia were only given numbers as player names, whereas some confederations such as certain African nations were not even complete. Gorillaz headlined the soundtrack. The commentators for this game are John Motson and, for the second time in the FIFA series, Andy Gray.

Description

* Tagline: "A great player needs a great first touch."
* Cover: Patrick Vieira, Fernando Morientes, and Andriy Shevchenko (Main) Oswaldo Sánchez, Fernando Morientes, and Andriy Shevchenko (North America)
* Released for: Windows, Playstation, PlayStation 2, GameCube, Xbox, Game Boy Advance, PSP (America only), Gizmondo, Nokia N-Gage, Mobile phone

FIFA 2005 was released much earlier than the usual late October date to obtain a head start over Pro Evolution Soccer 4 and avoid clashing with EA Sports' own FIFA Street. The game features the return of the create-a-player mode, as well as an improved Career mode. The biggest difference compared to previous titles in the series is the inclusion of first-touch gameplay which provides gamers with the ability to perform "real-life" tricks and passes. It is also the first version to feature the full Mexican League. The game has no opening video per se, but its soundtrack is headlined by British DJ Paul Oakenfold, who composed the FIFA Theme especially for the game, using some sounds from the game such as crowd noises and commentary. This was the last Playstation 1 title released in the US. The game also features authentic crowd chants edited by producer Dan Motut.
