The PC, Xbox, PlayStation 2 and GameCube versions received 'generally favorable reviews', while the Xbox 360, PSP, DS and Game Boy Advance versions received 'mixed or average reviews' according to video game review aggregatorMetacritic.[46][47][48][49][50][51][52][53] In Japan, Famitsu gave the PS2 version a score of three eights and one seven for a total of 31 out of 40.[7]
The Times gave the PS2 version a score of four stars out of five and stated that 'The classic moment section, which features 125 well-known situations, is one of several nice touches in this game.'[54]The A.V. Club gave the game a B and said that it 'supplies just enough vicarious excitement to bridge the gap between now and early June.'[36]Detroit Free Press gave the X360 version three stars out of four and stated: 'Thankfully for the folks at Electronic Arts, the only soccer competition available on the Xbox 360 is the previous FIFA game, and this World Cup edition is a step up from that incarnation, albeit a small one.'[37] However, The Sydney Morning Herald gave the game three-and-a-half stars out of five and called it 'a fun football simulation for newcomers and the best FIFA of recent years. Even so, competitor 'Pro Evolution' still has the virtual World Cup firmly in its grasp.'[55]
IGN gave the Mobile version a score of 5.8 out of 10 and called it 'a stop-gap product designed to reel in World Cup fans based on the hype of the world's biggest sporting event. And that's not necessarily a bad idea -- having the entire tournament set up from the get-go -- but the execution isn't worth your download dollars.'[1]

The World Cup is one of the most prestigious soccer tournament in the world, where all of the best teams meet every four years to play against in each other and decide who goes home with the trophy. In addition, it is also where you can find the best players that have been selected to represent their country in the tournament.
Choose one of the qualified national teams
2006 FIFA World Cup aims to bring the competition to your computer and let you take place in it yourself, by choosing the desired team and leading it to international glory. In addition, you can go through the entire tournament, complete with the group stage and the single elimination phase, where you have no other option that victory.
As the FIFA series has taught us over the years, the game manages to include every license required to display the names of the players, clubs and sponsors that are part of the competition. Moreover, every in-game player is closely modeled and detailed according to the person they represent, in order to offer you the complete experience of the World Cup.
The same responsive gameplay mechanics
Although the game is slightly different from the usual FIFA release, it does not bring any major modification when it comes to gameplay or anything related to mechanics. Thus, it feels and plays just like the regular installment, except for the game modes and the number of available teams that can be used in the tournament.
The same can be said about graphic quality as well, which is largely unchanged from the original game. It does, however, feature some new faces and a few improvements here and there, but most of them are not observable in any case. The modifications can be clearly heard in the sound department, though, where you can find a large collection of new songs and crowd noises to enrich the World Cup experience.
An entertaining World Cup simulator
In the end, 2006 FIFA World Cup may not be an advancement over the regular FIFA, but it is more or less the same, except for the club teams it does not feature. In addition, it does contain a wide array of new animations and sounds to depict the tournament in a more realistic way, which is what makes the World Cup special in the first place.
