Like in FIFA 98, injured players will also limp visibly if you don't exchange them for a new player. As in FIFA 99's predecessors, multiplayer matches is where it's at. The customizable speed settings help make things more interesting for action sports fans as well. FIFA 99 runs at 640x240 and pumps out almost photo-realistic graphics at times. The players still look a little robotic and it's time for some new hair and face textures, but the motion captured animations are fantastic.
Presentation is fantastic.
Players argue with the refs after fouls, limp when injured and console their buddies when a penalty kick misses its target. Like in NHL 99, the surface deteriorates over time. And as with every new EASports title, the menu designers have worked overtime to come up with beautiful looking, well conceived interface graphics. This is definitely the best-looking console soccer game out there. The sound, like in all previous FIFA installments on N64, is in Dolby Pro Logic Surround with John Motson taking over the commentary.
