In typical EA fashion, another FIFA game will be released to coincide with the new football season, a lot of the new buzz-word-sounding features have been showcased. So as an avid FIFA fan I figured now would be a good time for a preview and weigh up whether the latest instalment is anything to get excited about.

And this made us wonder; what could possibly go wrong in a video-game when physics engine go insane? Well, the answer is quite simple. You can get some gay stuff thanks to the Impact Engine of Fifa 12 & 13, spinning cars, boobs that can go up and down, and games with non-existent collisions (yeah, we’re talking about the legendary ‘Big Rigs’ game)."
LOL! That freaking Skate 3 video collection was just amazing... I want that game now...
LOLOL THAT was the funniest thing I've ever seen!!! Especially the Skate 3 compilation!!!
That was good times. Laughed so hard it made me want to search for more.
Go Nintendo - When EA was contacted about FIFA 12 being largely repackaged as FIFA 13 for Wii, here's what a rep had to say.
Go Nintendo seems to be scratching for news here. Sure, it probably is the same game, but what do you expect with Wii?
lol EA repackaging old games into the new version each year?
Wait until the Madden fans find out...oh wait nevermind.
Wow EA and here I actually gave you a little credit for Fifa 13.
Now I feel stupid. How are companies able to just rob people like this? Actually getting away with it being caught red handed also?
Can someone sue these basterds already, charging for online to play in old games, now this? Is this not enough proof they are greedy as shit?
Or am I missing something here?
They probably don't even sell enough copies on wii to justify any major effort. They just release it with an updated roster for those who missed last years or new comers.
WC - Now that EA Sports have released this year’s addition to the FIFA franchise – and picked up a five star review from us in response – it’s time to get under the skin of FIFA 13, and cater to those players who will have already began to log some serious hours not only in online play against friends, but also in Career Mode and building their Ultimate Team from the ground up. And that means looking a lot closer at the players in the game, and at EA Sports’ ratings decisions.
This game is going to be very good. I can't see it not changing the series drastically for the better. FIFA games recently haven't iterated that much on the previous years, this looks set to change that.
Yeah i do agree that there are far too many games coming out all at once: BF3, MW3, Gears 3, Forza 4, Uncharted 3 the list goes on. I happen to be a student and the best 4 player (all on one screen) game is by far FIFA. So we usually have a good time playing it throughout the year.
TO be honest I haven't really looked that much into PES, I've heard it's coming along well but they have lost alot of support over the last few years. A bit of healthy competition should help push the genre forward, so I hope it does reasonably well.
If you enjoyed the preview make an account and comeback!, we are looking to create a community of gamers with honest strong opinions and have an untrolling nature. :)
I enjoy FIFA games, but I found FIFA 10 extremely frustrating at times. Hopefully this will be a big step up from there.
