"This is the ultimate!!!"

Graphics-9/10
The graphics for this game are interesting...let me explain. You see, the graphics are really good. The way they pull off the Matrix shot is just amazing! The camera revolves around the player performing the shot in slow motion and the shot sets the ball on fire, there is also a variety of Matrix shots. The players run like real soccer players, and look like real people.The only problem I have with them is that the player's faces do not look very accurate. They have the correct people, (for most of the teams) but they do not look like they do in real life. I personally don't have a problem with that but some soccer fans might find it irritating. That is why I had to give the graphics a 9.

Sound-9/10
The sound is also pretty cool. The way that the crowds cheer sounds like a real soccer game. When a shot is taken the crowds cheer even louder. When a Matrix kick is in process, the Cheers stop and you hear a sound that you would originally hear in the Matrix movie. Once again there is one thing that got in the way from me giving the sound a perfect 10. That is the announcers! When I first got this game I thought it was cool that the announcers were criticizing the ref, but after about 3 minutes of the game it got repetitive and boring. That is what made me give the sound a 9.

Gameplay-10/10
WOW! This is the funnest sports game i have ever played. It is so cool! I am having so much fun playing this game against my friend. It is so entertaining watching me kick him in the game and not be given a foul, most of the time. It is so cool unlocking different teams and stadiums. You can play on Amateur, Semi-pro, Pro, and World class difficulty levels. You can play in a tournament against your friends, or against the computer, and you can also play in a World Conquest mode. In World Conquest mode you go around to different continents playing different teams in that continent. If you beat World Conquest you unlock Finals mode. The gameplay is awesome!!!

Replay Value-?/10
I couldn't believe some of the other reviews I read! They gave it such a low replay value! But I on the other hand thought that the replay value for this game earns a perfect 10! I only got this game one day ago, but I couldn't stop playing it since I got it! I don't think I will ever get bored of this game! If I had to judge the replay value now I think I would give it a 10. This game rocks.

Total-9/10
Other than the Graphics and Sound of this game, This is the best sports game in the stores. If you are a soccer fan you should definitely give Red Card Soccer 20-03 a chance.
