New Gameplay Features

Player Impact Engine

The "Player Impact Engine" expands physical play from simple collisions to off-the-ball battles between players. Defenders will push and pull for position, and use their size and strength to win possession or force opponents into poor touches and decisions before the ball arrives.

Tactical Free Kicks

FIFA 13's "Tactical Free Kicks" provides the tools to create dangerous and unpredictable free kicks, by utilizing the most skillful players on the pitch. The player will be allowed to position up to three attacking players over the ball and utilize dummy runs and more passing options to create elaborate free kicks. Opponents can counter by adding or subtracting players to the wall, creeping the wall forward, or sending a bullet man to intercept the pass or block the shot.

Attacking Intelligence

All-new "Attacking Intelligence" enables players to analyze space, work harder and smarter to break down defences, and think two plays ahead. Players now possess the intelligence to create, curve, or alter runs in order to capitalise on openings as they occur, make runs that pull defenders out of position in order to open passing channels for teammates and better position themselves for new attacking opportunities.

Commentators

Commentators for FIFA 13 are yet to be confirmed by EA Sports. It is assumed, however, that the commentary in FIFA 13 will be similar to that of the previous version; that is, Martin Tyler and Alan Smith are assumed to be included for FIFA 13's commentary, as well as Clive Tyldesley and Andy Townsend.

Leagues

Leagues are also yet to be confirmed by EA Sports, although it is again assumed that the leagues found in FIFA 12 will make a return in FIFA 13. According to one source, the Czech Gambrinus Liga and the Turkish Süper Lig will return after a one-year hiatus. The same source continues to mention that the Saudi Professional League will feature for the first time in the series.

National Teams

National teams are yet to be confirmed by EA Sports, but it is expected that all 42 national teams from FIFA 12 would make it to FIFA 13, in addition to any potentially new additions

Shadow Complex Review

Shadow Complex propels lost hiker Jason Fleming into the hollows of government conspiracy, dark politics and military upheaval.

When Jason and his girlfriend, Claire, accidentally stumble upon a rogue paramilitary group called the Restoration, it soon becomes clear that the faction's intent is to set in motion a chain of events that will cause America to collapse into a civil war. Assumed to be a government agent, the Restoration captures Claire, and while this initially fuels Jason's motivation to find justice, he soon discovers the magnitude of what the sinister offshoot has planned.  Along the way, Jason acquires many high-tech "toys" the Restoration is developing, and eventually becomes a super-powered engine of destruction.
