FIFA 06 arrived in 2005, and despite being more than 15 years old, remains one of the best iterations of the franchise, particularly on PSP.
One guy sits in a dimly-lit room on his laptop armed with speculation and opinion, a few tweets later and everyone is suitably outraged. Usually its easier to simply utter the words “Meh” and move on, but after a recent headline claiming that launch titles for the next Microsoft console spelled disaster for the big release, maybe its time to have a history lesson.
Everyone loves to look at the past through rose-tinted glasses and shit-tinted goggles for future products, but this should not be the case; let’s take a look at the launch titles for the Xbox 360.
Boomtown writes: "No rivalry in the world of gaming is fiercer than the one between competing football franchises. It almost mirrors the strength of feeling people have for their club. Crossing the divide to support another franchise is a relatively rare occurrence. There are two major derby matches in the football gaming calendar and they feature a bitter enmity which has built up over the last few years. The first is Pro Evolution versus FIFA and the second is Championship Manager versus Football Manager."
FIFA 10 will be the next installment of Electronic Arts' FIFA series of football video games. Developed by EA Canada, it is published by Electronic Arts worldwide under the EA Sports label. It will be released on October 2, 2009 in Europe and October 20, 2009 in North America and Australia. It will be available for Sony's PlayStation 2 and PlayStation 3, Microsoft Windows and Xbox 360 and the Nintendo Wii. Versions of the game will also be released for the Apple iPhone/iPod Touch, Nintendo DS, Nokia N-Gage, Sony PSP and for mobile phones.
One of the very highly anticipated games of 2009. Although it doesn't have too many new features, the graphics will be outstanding for sure...
The new cricket game - Ashes cricket 09 has a lot more new features. Their first cricket game in 2 years.
Is that all that matters? Graphics? pfft. Theyll be the same graphics as the last 2 versions.
Gameplay is all that matters.
Yeah, what they need to do is add something completely new. This one has manager mode which will probably increase sales by a lot more but EA needs to do more than that. I'm not saying it's a bad game, I've loved all the FIFA games, it's just the repetition.
Just like the EA sport cricket games, these are gonna stop selling eventually unless they come up with something completely, completely new. Small features won't work. I definitely won't be buying FIFA 10 since I already have FIFa 09.
