Let's just not play FIFa

If FIFA actually fixed their game rather than adding more crap to it, it might make me a bit more excited.

But it's the game itself not an 'upgrade' on an old game.

I can understand the increased graphics and engine on the new console, that's a no brainer. But including more stadia on the 360 could hardly be an issue.

It's actually an issue. I'm not particularly tech savvy but I read articles last time around where they mentioned that having that many stadiums used a lot of memory. Apparently the new consoles can handle what the old ones can't.

FIFA's probably fine for part time football fans who don't take interest in the real sport that closely

For a few of us, the mechanics and exploits probably bug the hell outta us coz we think like real football people

 

[Jatz]

I really don't care that much. I don't get to spend much time gaming and I only ever play offline. Gives me exactly what I want out of it.

 

[Cooldude]

Yeah probably coz you only play offline lol, offline play is fine. Online play is just a cluster****

Not really, it's fun for what it is, a good way to pass the time with mates, and pretty easy to enjoy.

Currently in the middle of doing our annual tournament, we each have a side, we play home and away 10 mins half legs, have a table, then a finals series, hell of a lot of fun. We track Golden Boot, best XI, etc. we take it far too seriously, but that's what makes it fun.

If that's all you use it for, but if you play FIFA and not use online gaming then I'd rather not buy it, coz that means I only use it like once or twice every week when mates are over.

And the online play is so very bad

Twice a week is plenty for me lol.

I didn't even buy 14, for the record. I buy every alternate year so only ends up costing me half as much.

I despise EA anyway, won't give them any money ever again

SM

hehehehe

****ers.

Fifa 15 has every PL stadium in it! All 20 of them.

King Power, Loftus road. Wish Fulham had stayed up.

Can play at the KC SM

Yep! All 20 stadia, so so keen.

Made my day!!!

Selhurst Park you beauty!!!

 

[NUFC Tiger]

Beautiful every time I see it!

 

[Loonerty]

About to order a 14/15 shirt... no idea who to get on the back.

Fabregas, Hazard and Costa are the top contenders currently.

 

[Cooldude]

Get Fabregas just to rub it into every Arsenal fan you see

Selhurst Park you beauty!!!

I love that the clubs at the lower end get the benefits of this! All the big clubs really don't get how awesome this really is!

Selhurst Park looks awesome!

 

[Loonerty]

Get Fabregas just to rub it into every Arsenal fan you see

This is the main motivation behind it.

 

[Cooldude]

Hazard's fine

Costa's a risk coz he has a history of doing pretty bad stuff, it'd be like my Suarez 7 shirt, shelved coz I don't wanna be stoned in public

Costa's a risk coz he has a history of doing pretty bad stuff, it'd be like my Suarez 7 shirt, shelved coz I don't wanna be stoned in public

I have a Mata 10 that has sat in my closet for 6 months...

Hopefully it doesn't happen again with whoever I get.

 

[Loonerty]

Azpilicueta is one I'm considering too..

 

[jod23]

Im excited about all the stadiums but ive read that a lot of chants are going in aswell to make it feel more real during games. So I think YNWA will be heard at the end of matches and Field of Anfield Rd during games and others chants. All adds to the realism.

 

[Cooldude]

I can't remember correctly but you can hear YNWA in the Anfield games in FIFA 14, can't ya

Games now live and die on their online abilities. EA have shown that they have no interest in making good games, just printing money by rushing out crappy products.

Star Wars TOR - $400 million and became free
Warhammer Online - I loved this game but it was soo bad it was good!
SimCity - Just wtf were they thinking?
NBA2K14
Mass Effect 3 - terrible online play
