You can do all the standard customizations in FIFA ’97. What would a FIFA game be without thousands of real life players hundreds of teams (255 in 12 international leagues) true league rules and strategies play-by-play commentary and assorted environmental conditions? Additions like everybody playing being able to decide their own individual difficulty level, indoor matches, and a new animation process that EA has dubbed “Motion Blending”, have all combined to make the game highly marketable. And of course, the bevy of slick sim features that are key to the FIFA franchise, always satisfy. Despite this, they declared FIFA 96 "the dominant soccer in the Saturn market" due to the advanced gameplay mechanics and the weakness of the competition.Plus I do enjoy the aggressive sounds of the raucous music and the crazy fans. Maximum highly criticized it as having a lower frame rate than the PlayStation version, adding that other Saturn ports of soccer games all were very close to the originals. Comparing it to the PlayStation version, they remarked that the Saturn version has more vibrant colors and larger sprites, but rougher characters and less smooth scrolling.
GamePro too praised the camera angles, but put greater emphasis on the deep gameplay. At the end of it all though, it lacks the smoothness and speed to merit championship distinction." The two sports reviewers of Electronic Gaming Monthly both gave the Saturn version an 8 out of 10, particularly praising the multiple camera angles and the play-by-play commentary, both of which they felt made the game very lifelike. Rob Allsetter of Sega Saturn Magazine applauded the comprehensive selection of players, customizing options, and camera angles, but complained that the animation is "both slow and slightly jittery." He concluded, " Fifa '96 makes a brave attempt to capture the real thrill of football. He praised the use of more than 3,000 real players, the realistic passing controls, and the audio commentary.
They summarized "The remarkably user-friendly options ensure that even the most demanding players will be satisfied, and once the game begins properly, you will appreciate the time and honing skill that has been lavished upon this product by the truly professional EA Sports coders." Tommy Glide of GamePro hailed the game for its realism as well, saying it managed to surpass even the 3DO version of FIFA International Soccer. Reviewing the PlayStation version, Maximum applauded the game for the realism in the player controls and AI behavior, as well as the large number of features, such as the multiple camera angles and league play. For the DOS version PC Gamer gave a 92 out of 100.
FIFA 96 features 15 songs which were composed and arranged by Graeme Coleman.
