Commentary, names, icons, power bars, replays, the whole works. This is just stupendous.

YouTuber MHjerpseth is our new hero. A prolific FIFA player, who uploads videos of tips, tricks, tutorials and compilations of the game’s best bits to YouTube, his latest effort is at a completely new level.

Somehow he has managed to get his hands on an awful lot of cameras and shoot a game between him and a bunch of his friends and made it look look just like a game of FIFA.

Called Future FIFA (Real-Life Video Game), it is simply sensational. We suspect there is some computer wizardry at work here with some of the actual on-field action however the architecture around the play looks so like the game that it you overlook it. Perhaps the good people at EA had a hand in this, to help promote FIFA 15, which hits the shelves pretty soon, but it is still hugely impressive and we would love to see exactly how it was done.

Make sure you stay tuned for the final goal too.
