EA Sports have announced that Australian Soccer Star Tim Cahill will be the first ever Australian on an EA Sports Fifa cover. EA also announced every cover athlete for the countries where Fifa 10 will be released. For full details, look inside.

"Going down the list in Steve Bowden’s 100 Computer Games to Play Before You Die, I was supposed to write something about Defender this week but I decided not to. Just doesn’t feel right. Not for this week, not for right now at least.
I want to talk about something bigger, I guess. I want to talk about how, in times like these, gaming is valuable and vital. So I’m gonna do that instead."
TGC writes: There are those that like to argue whether you are a Fifa gamer or a Pro Evolution Soccer gamer. I’m going to take it one step further and say your either a football gamer or a non football gamer. The fact of the matter is a new game comes out every year with possibly the slightest difference from the previous game and they release it onto the shelves in quantities thinking that they’ve made something new and improved. I really think they should hold a prize for anyone who can spot the difference between FIFA 09 and FIFA10 because I’m really struggling.
I use to buy every sports game I was interested in madden,MLB,nba and wwe along few others and I remember buying playing for few days than thinking why I paid full price for this. Than one year about 4 years ago I said no more and I have never bought another sports game at launch sometimes I do buy me when they $20 on craiglist of sale but that's barely
IMO sports games don't do enough to justify a fully price and that's just my opinion
If 2k can sell nfl 2k5 for $19.99 and make a profit than why are games today with less content are selling for full 60? No wonder why EA ran to nfl and bought the exclusive rights
FIFA
Nfl
Nba
MLB
Wwe
NHL
Etc,
Sports games shuld be every 2 years and in between dlc and more updates and stuff like tournaments
If people are willing to buy them then whats the problem? i think its cod or mw123 you should be talking about, the new pes and fifa look good this year.
Here, for your consideration are the 10 greatest sporting events to have ever graced a PlayStation. The question is not so much what franchises have made the cut but which versions…
Sports games tend to bore me, but I'm very fond of Tony Hawk, Skate, NBA Street V2 and some WWE games (if you count it as sport... sports entertainment... whatever).
Tim Cahill is a great soccer player, he does very good when he plays for Aus and Everton. Scores great goals too
Until further comment is released by EA I will be reserving judgement on whether or not to purchase their products in the future.
