For all those soccer fanatics who can’t wait to get home to play their roommates in yet another epic FIFA match, here is some good news.

iPhone users can now get the latest soccer game, FIFA 10, on their handset for only $9.99.

Developers EA Sports have made a version compatible with the apple mobile phone, and created a much better soccer game than Real Football 2010 and X2 Football, both previously released on the iPhone.

Most of the features of the console version are available on the iPhone including, Manager version, Penalty, Training, Be-A-Pro and multiplayer options. Tournaments are also available on the game.

The gaming control is with the help of a virtual analog stick which is 8-directional. You can pass or shoot with the help of two buttons, as it is in the console version.

The one problem with he iPhone version is that the commentary and audio functions are not exemplary. However, with four levels of difficulty, it should be challenging enough for most gaming pros.

There is also a local Wi-Fi multiplayer mode for iPhone users to play among themselves.

Current reviews for the application have all been positive, as expected from such a successful video game release.

FIFA is regarded as one of the most popular sporting video games, and one which can be enjoyed by any demographic, and in any social setting.

The cult status of the game has seen it hold its own World Championship Tournaments as well as local and international events.

Now, lovers of the game are able to have the latest version of FIFA on their handsets, for a tenth of its price in the stores.
