    No, Fifa 11 was absoloutly terrible, and there is something definitly biased in the voting system if it actually beat Football Manager to the award, because unlike Fifa 11, there was actually barely any critisisms to the Football Manager game and 100% of the game was there with many more improvements and without a single bugs (unlike Fifa; Ea servers wrecked online and too many glitches in the overall game).

    @Xavi:

    FIFA 12 is better than 11, 11 stank. That said I only bought FIFA 12 because I was able to not spend a dime as I used store credit and had it price matched at $40.
