Unlike the home console versions of FIFA Street 2, the PSP and DS games will award you bonuses for every single trick you perform, even if the opponent closest to you at the time is at the other end of the pitch. Regardless of which game type you're playing, you'll spend the majority of your time performing tricks, not only to get past opposing players, but also to increase your chances of scoring by stringing together combos and activating gamebreaker shots.

Regular matches in FIFA Street 2 are played from the perspective of a sideline camera and challenge your team of four players either to score more goals than the opposition within a set time or simply to be the first to score a set number of goals. You won't find any taunts, ball-juggling mechanics, or risk-versus-reward gamebreakers on the PSP or the DS, nor will you find an end-to-end camera unless you're playing the PSP version's new one-on-one striker and sharpshooter minigames-which task you with beating a goalkeeper without the use of any tricks and are fun for about two minutes. The fact is, the PSP and DS versions of FIFA Street 2 aren't handheld versions of EA Sports Big's street soccer sequel at all but are essentially handheld versions of last year's game with a couple of new features bolted on. If this game looks more like the original FIFA Street than it's much-improved sequel, it's because that's what it is.

The PlayStation 2, Xbox, and GameCube versions of FIFA Street 2 represent a significant improvement over the lackluster original, but the same can't be said for the PlayStation Portable and Nintendo DS games unfortunately. Nevertheless, when we reviewed FIFA Street we alluded to the fact that we'd very much like to see its problems addressed in a sequel at some point, and now, one year later, EA Sports Big has done just that. When FIFA Street was released in February of 2005, the game boasted far more style than it did substance and offered a gameplay experience that was as flawed as it was flashy.
