Re: FIFA 08 (360 & PS3)
I think the reason some shirts (Werder Bremen) don't have sponsoring is because they are gambling companys and EA don't like to promote it in their games.
Good thing is I think Werder have changed sponsor for next season.

Re: FIFA 08 (360 & PS3)
thats the problem with EA they dont concentrate on the fundamentals, this is a football game not god of war, why does a football game need sequences?

Re: FIFA 08 (360 & PS3)
That's just one of the improvements they have made, you'll see if you read the whole list they have improved shots, collisions, added lots more animations, made it harder to dribble with not-so-good players and improved the interaction between the player and the ball.
All good things in my book. A lot of people complained that there was no tricks in FIFA 07 and it looks like they'll be some in this.

Re: FIFA 08 (360 & PS3)
Why, Why, why? How is taking away a shot that actually depends on someone's orientation adding to realism? I cannot believe you would want to sacrifice that as it is one of the things i believe makes UEFA and FIFA better than any previous PES effort. On the tricks...i just dont see the point. having no tricks in UEFA and FIFA led me to playing by far the most realistic football i have ever played in a game, and adding them back in would just be stupid in my opinion. As an example - i brought my mate around to play UEFA for the first time the other day, and as soon as he got the ball (he's a world cup and fifa ps2 player) all he did was wiggle the right stick in random directions. When i told him they took it out, he complained and had great difficulty getting by me for the rest of the game. Having no tricks makes you pass the ball, which is how real football really is.

Re: FIFA 08 (360 & PS3)
i would say have tricks but for only certain players
your not gonna be seeing gary neville do a roulette in real life are you?
there not many players that do tricks in a real football match anyway, so it wouldnt be hard to give players like ronaldo, dino, joe cole ect tricks

I NEVER feel like I can hit a random shot it ALWAYS looks the same to me and has the same feel. i'm sorry but the goal scoring is VERY weak compared to even fifa 07 current gen. I can not have ANOTHER game have weak shooting at goals.

The second that happens, the real Gary Neville will do a roulette (with no players near him obviously), get a huge cheer from the crowd and there will be 1,000 people in here saying "WHY CAN'T I DO THAT IN THE GAME WHEN OTHER PLAYERS CAN?!! IT'S SO STUPID!!"
You can't please all the people all the time.

This one particluar pic gets me really excited:
Everytime I see it Im impressed by the player likeness, the way hes moving onto the ball, the grass textures and the stadium. Looks class. Im also impressed because it doesnt look as rendered as the usual Fifa pics. Remember Fifa 07 and UCL pics?

I agree, but it's a pict from EA, no directly from the demo (like the Klose one) and i hate in FIFA the no respect of the shirts, logo sponsors, name font etc...This one particluar pic gets me really excited:

Re: FIFA 08 (360 & PS3)
They've said before that they don't have the license for the seperate fonts. They aren't covered in the league-wide licenses, they need seperate licensing and EA don't have it. Which is strange considering they have everything else...

Re: FIFA 08 (360 & PS3)
PES looks like crap, game modes and number of leagues will be crap, gameplay will be crap, Fifa08 will piss on it IMO, and that's based on playing PES/WE religiously for the past few years whilst spitting on Fifa before finally trying Fifa07 current gen, then UEFA current gen then Fifa07 and UEFA next gen. Fifa pisses all over PES in pretty much everyway.
For those wanting perfect shooting no matter which direction the player is facing or how balanced they are, you know nothing about football.
For those obsessing about having a "trick stick" in game so they can pull of silly tricks all the time with all players, you know nothing about football.

Re: FIFA 08 (360 & PS3)
if u knew about football, i think ud agree that PES6 for ps2 (or even better - winning eleven 10 JLeague) is a more realistic sim (if thats what u meant by 'pisses all over') than anything fifa has produced to date, including UEFA. Fifa is for kids, PES more for adults...
however, i do agree with your point about the silly 'trick stick'. I also believe that only a select group of players should be able to pull off certain dribbles, step overs etc. In PES all players can do this.. which shouldnt be the case. I like how they implement the roulette though.. all can do it..but only a few can pull it off successfully.. the others just fall over or lose the ball when they try it.. hahaha thats cool..

I love how everyone has come to a conclusion about it already after a handful of screenshots. Wait till we see it moving people.
Also, Konami have blown it! They put that out on PS3 people will explode. They pinned their hope is pes6 being a stopgap version. They are looking so wrong.

I think its the other way round now a days. PES is simple. Consists of 4 main commands per player. In FIFA its a lot more sophisticated.

Re: FIFA 08 (360 & PS3)
and thats why fifa sucks, NONE of the players feel different then one or the other, i could take nesta put him at forward and he would score as many goals as ronaldo for milan, every player seems the exact same... the attributes and stats actually mean something in PES, they mean shit all in fifa

Re: FIFA 08 (360 & PS3)
playing world class, straight off, and i still havent lost, i like it, but theres still so little satisfaction when you score a goal, cos you dont know when your going to beat the goalie, ie when its super man or downs man, so regardless of shot power or quality you dont feel like youve done a good or bad job, its just down to random goalieness. if they sorted out shot satisfaction (ala fifa 07 on ps2, and pes), and the ridiculous success of through balls...aswell as downsizing the kits, i'm ready to be blown away!

Re: FIFA 08 (360 & PS3)
thats why its nowere near as good as pes/winning eleven when u score in pes it feels like a well worked goal as with fifa it feels scripted

Re: FIFA 08 (360 & PS3)
Yeah very true. I guess Ive just never got used the shooting on recently Fifa games. Its funny coz I find old-gen Fifa (PS2) easier to play. Its more responsive and shooting feels like it has more impact, if you get my meaning.
But I think we all need to take a step back and look at how far Fifa has come. Its not quite there in my opinion, but over the last few years its become a game I do end up playing. Just never good enough to buy though.
After getting a great endorsement from one of my contacts though I really feel this will be the first Fifa Im gonna purchase since 2001. EA should get a lot of credit on here rather than little digs here and there.

I think it just comes down to which game is more fun to play, not which game is more realistic.
I guess people have different opinions on what is fun, personally I find FIFA more realistic but PES more fun to play.
