FIFA 12: Available Now At Skoobs

* New player impact engine: EA Sports released the video of FIFA 12, demonstrating the new "Impact Engine." This engine improves the collision variety, accuracy and momentum preservation.
* Tactical defending: All-new Tactical Defending fundamentally changes the approach to defending by placing equal importance on positioning, intercepting passes and tackling.
* Precision dribbling: Players can now dribble whilst shielding, meaning you can still move around the pitch whilst holding players off, rather than being rooted to the spot. Close control has been added below jogging as a way of allowing players to take smaller, more frequent touches, keeping the ball closer and keeping tighter control. Players will now be much more aware of their surroundings. As an example, players in possession near the touchline will understand that they’re there, and keep tighter control of the ball to stop it running out of play.
* Localization: FIFA 12 will be the first in the series to be released in Arabic, with Essam El Shawaly and Abdullah Mubarak Al-Harby providing the commentary

DRIVER, SAN FRANCISCO: NOW AVAILABLE AT SKOOBS


Driver: San Francisco is a sandbox-style action driving video game. The game formally was unveiled at E3 2010.

Gameplay

A new feature is Shift, which allows Tanner to shift from a car into another car and continue the mission.The Shift option is not unlimited however, so the player has to recharge the Shift meter by doing things such as power slides, big jumps and driving into oncoming traffic. Shift must also be upgraded from time to time, so the player can shift into more distant cars and other parts of the city. One of the inspirations for Shift comes from Google Earth. The game is also being described as a "return to the roots" to the series as the ability to get out of the car, which was introduced in Driver 2, has been removed as the developers felt that too many games have this kind of feature already and "it wasn't desirable [for us] to just copy that exact mechanic.".
