For the 2004/2005 season, the Codemasters Club Football 2005 range has emerged with a new game engine to power faster and more responsive gameplay. More clubs join Codies' range this year - the once mighty Leeds United are understandably absent this time around - for their official video game. Over 20 top European football clubs from Real Madrid to Bayern Munich are included for 2005; Bimingham City are here too. Just down the road from Codemasters HQ, someone must have friends at St Andrews... Look, it's Adrian Mutu, the forgotten man of Stamford Bridge! Select him now! Club Football 2005 boasts some of the most detailed player modelling we've seen, with facial animations and expressions displaying as much emotion as the processor can muster. In addition to some of the standard football moves you can make in CF2005, there's a whole bunch of new skill moves including dummies, improved close control, feints and fine positioning adjustment. This is all very well, but the real challenge is to put it all together into a team performance. Nimble fingers are a must, naturally. The most notable of all the new features, however, is the Precision Trigger. This is an all-new detailed control feature for close-up play.
