Any screenshots/video previews yet?

Prediction: It will suck.

Just like the last version.... and the version before that....

Pretty much impossible to translate AFL into an action based game representative of the actual sport.

Agree although it's almost fun against another human after a couple of drinks, though EXTREMLY frustrating at times.

AFL 2005 was crap
2006 was better, more realistic, but still not very good.

Im hoping this one will be even better.If it is, they are well on the way to making a good AFL video game.

 

[melbournemartin]

06 was at least playable. Too bad I don't have a ps2 but a few plays at my mates will probably be enough.

I wish they could get a build cranking on some next gen hardware, being a game that requires depth of AI it would work a treat.

premiership edition is the best afl game followed by afl 2004

 

[rfctigerarmy]

LOL! That looks ****ing horrible. The screen shots are shit. Do not waste your money.

 

[mattwinter]

reminds me of fifa 99.

 

[notting18]

I'll be buying it purely because i have gotta have an up to date footy game to play on ps2. Although my expectations are not that high!

 

[DonMania#5]

Screenshots look allright, not that bad.
Player graphics are still crap compared to the newest Fifa and Pro Evo versionas.

yer i'll most likely buy it, should be around 60-70 dollars when it comes out hopefully, i got ricky ponting 07 for 58 dollars the day it came out

AFL 98 was awesome. '99 was good also. The rest have been pants.

2004 and premiership edition weren't that bad

 

[BadSeed]

Is it actually going to be on PC this time? if not... WHY THE F$$KING HELL NOT

 

[FootyJunkie]

I'm going to pass on this game and wait for January next year.

Commetti AFL 2008

EA Sports: It's in the game.

Sony pays to make the game, and they want people to get it on PS2.

The problem with AFL games is that you would need a production team much bigger than the ones that make FIFA or PES just to get an accurate representation.

I gave up on AFL video games long ago.

i want a better draft system. instead of fake names, i dont reckon it would be too hard to include say 50 players who are expected to get picked this year

 

[sabby]

Yea i hate the names when you do a draft they just take real players names and mix them up. It needs to change!

Thanks for that Happy Eagle

Don't the fremantle players look fat.

That would be illegal.

The producers of the game buy the license to use the players names from the AFLPA.

The upcoming draftees aren't members of the Players Association so the producers of the games would have to seek permission from each individual player.

Not worth the time or effort.

Aw really? That sucks. i would rather the game came out after the trades were done for the year then. As a supporter of a team with many early draft picks lately, is no fun playing without the likes of marc murphy, bryce gibbs etc.

plus you'd have to include their height and weight and attributes.

way too much effort.

They could just use random names instead of rehashed AFL players though
