CVG: FIFA 12, a whole new ball game?

CVG: The wildest thing EA Sports could probably do for FIFA would be to rebuild the footballing faces of 1966, wash the screen in black and white and call it FIFA Flashback, or something a little less camp.

Instead, by the very nature of its subject matter, the next iteration of any sports sim will always be a revisit to the same pitch, court, ring or track, with updated names, a graphical upgrade and a handful of game engine tweaks.

I find it interesting how they claim how hard it is to do sporting sequels. Thing is, sporting sequels have it real easy.. they just need to tweak and add a few new marketable gameplay things and the fans will lap it up. In terms of production costs to profits ratio, I reckon fifa is probably top of the pile alongside other EA sports games.

It'd be nice to see them invest some more resources so we don't just get the same old career mode reskinned each year (I thought fifa 11s career was terrible with the awful player growth). I've always wondered what it'd be like if they put an rpg like twist on it where you gain experience in matches for doing various things and level up.. they could use it to replace the rather boring (in my opinion) virtual pro system .

I think ultimate team was a great implementation however they only bothered adding that as they knew it'd end up making them as much as if not more than the actual game itself. I'd love it for them to invest those sort of resources in new innovative game modes to really make you rethink how football games can be played (like fifa clubs).

Ofcourse seeing as it's EA I doubt they'll bother putting resources into it simply because they know they don't need to.

EA Delists Latest FIFA Games From Prominent Digital Stores

Following the release of EA Sports FC 24, the publisher seems to have removed FIFA 14 up to 22 from major digital storefronts.

MrNinosan224d ago

And as a Journalist, you should know why.
FIFA ain't allowing the games on the storefronts without EA paying for them. Pretty obvious.

Rols224d ago

Looks like the FIFA licensing deal has expired. No mystery about it.

EA FC please Flop🤞

Loot boxes --- "surprise mechanics"
NFTs ----------- "virtual creations"

just_looken341d ago

Well its sports gamers so they will buy the nft's very fast.

BrainSyphoned342d ago

EA: We need a new way to be voted the worst company
Nike: Have you tried child slave labor? No?... well how about a Jordan NFT. We will even throw in Chinese LeBron NFTs for free!

potatoseal342d ago

Can they even read the room? The world wide gaming room filled with gamers. No one wants this. They know they will probably get away with putting NFTs in their sport games.

XiNatsuDragnel342d ago

EA and Activision are competing for worst company fr.

mariopasta342d ago (Edited 342d ago )

How could they not know this is the wrong ass move. If EA survive this which they will, they are seriously untouchable. Too many casuals play their games and dont know what happening or even give a dam

JackBNimble341d ago

How is Nike still surviving?

People talk about justice this justice that but are so self absorbed that they will continue to support these companies so they can have their neat little things.

At the end of the day , everything the plebs say is all a lie.

Good idea but I expect the NCAA and college boards to swipe away all that money for themselves.

badboyz09372d ago

This means 2 things

2.They have some competition from another Studio
