I have just started playing Fifa 18 after seeing it cheap (£22.00) in Tesco, I have had the game on the Xbox One since launch in September (I buy Fifa every year and have done since it started in 1993) I have played many hours of Fifa 18 on the Xbox and I’m not trying to compare the two because obviously visually the Switch version can’t compare especially with me playing it on a Xbox One X, I have also noticed that modes such as the Alex Hunter story mode are missing and certain features like the recommended sub feature when playing a game
After saying all that the main difference and selling point is that the Switch version is portable, I have had Fifa for the Vita and 3DS and compared to them the Switch version is far far superior, my favourite mode in Fifa is the FUT mode, on the Xbox I always buy the premium version so that I get the FUT gold packs every week and because I always buy it for Xbox my coins carry over plus I get bonus loyalty points etc making the building of my FUT easier and in a strange way I’m looking forward on the Switch for the challenge of starting from scratch, I played my first FUT match and it went rather well (it’s season 10!so easy setting hence the score)
I was very pleased with how the layout of the pro controller is so similar to that of the Xbox making it easy for me to go from one to the other without confusion or annoyance, I really hope EA stick with the Switch and we get Fifa 19 and beyond, I will be getting both versions in future, just hope it’s not like the Wii U where we got Fifa 13 and that was it or even worse like the 3DS, Vita, PS3, Xbox 360 where it’s the same game every year with just updated players and kits
