It's also possible to create all kinds of competitions. \r\nThe Career mode was also extended, allowing now up to 15 seasons, and giving the player the chance to turn the tide of a simulated match anytime. This mode is a \"light\" managerial mode, where the player not only plays, but also signs new players and increases the club's abilities in trainers, medical staff, and other club staff).\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe main gameplay change was the addition of \"First Touch\" controls. By performing one of the \"trick\" moves before the player gets possession of the ball it's possible to do a number of moves, such as touching the ball forward to gain a few yards ahead of the defenders or touch the ball to one side, and roll to the other of a rushing defender, and then pick up up the ball a bit ahead leaving the opponent stranded, and the inclusion of a fake shot move, which allows forwards to sit a goalkeeper before scoring in style or make defenders jump from their positions, opening room for a through pass or a run into the goal. Other aspects of the game, such as the \"Off The Ball\" controls (allows the control of players that aren't in possession, moving them into an open position) remain unchanged.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eAnother new feature is the FIFA Shop, where the player can trade points earned in many ways, from simple tasks like having a peek at the Jukebox to obtaining 10 victories in a row in Career mode, for several items, such as third jerseys, additional music, more balls and night stadiums.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eAs it became the norm with the series, the game features 18 leagues and 38 national teams (some of these, due to licensing problems feature only generic kits and logos), summing up to around 11,000 real footballers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eGame Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eClassic Xbox gameplay with original physical presentation\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eGenre: Sports, Diagonal-down, 2D scrolling, Football (European) \/ Soccer, Licensed\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eReleased in 2004 by Electronic Arts, Inc.\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eIdeal for collectors building a physical Xbox library\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eCondition and contents shown in listing details and photos\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Code:\u003c\/strong\u003e FIFA-SOCCER-2005-XBOX-2004\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlatform:\u003c\/strong\u003e Xbox\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGenre:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sports, Diagonal-down, 2D scrolling, Football (European) \/ Soccer, Licensed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePEGI Rating:\u003c\/strong\u003e TBC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRelease Year:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2004\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/strong\u003e Electronic Arts, Inc.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n","brand":"Retromart","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53386894475607,"sku":"NS-5030935038668","price":7.98,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0895\/7870\/1143\/files\/0000__e8b60ffd2fab4d0abb4b834ce39ef3ad.jpg?v=1776772062","url":"https:\/\/retromart.co.uk\/products\/fifa-football-2005-xbox-2004-gb","provider":"Retromart.co.uk","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
