IGN: FIFA 12: UEFA Euro 2012 Review

When it comes to gameplay, there's very little to say. It's FIFA 12, unaltered. If you're at all familiar with that game, there's nothing new to learn or get your head around. FIFA 12 is a great game, and avoided series stagnation by incorporating several new features this year and reinventing aspects of its gameplay, such as the way in which you defend. And it's all present and correct here, ensuring the gameplay experience is of the same high quality. So what are you actually getting when you download UEFA Euro 2012?

Hilarious things happen when video-game physics go wrong

DSOGaming writes: "This article was inspired by a video that Elias Peppas shared with me. YouTube’s member ‘HelixSnake’ made a compilation of some epic physics fails from Skate 3. 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 the Skate 3 vid looked more like a Garry's Mod vid

Lol @ one of the youtube comments

"Go home Physics, you're drunk"

PS3Freak4225d ago

I used to play a lot of Skate 3, so watching that entire video made me cry laughing.

SolidStoner4225d ago

I never played football games, I didn't know they are so gay!

knowyourstuff4225d ago

When game physics go wrong?

More like when game physics go *right* lol

ado9084225d ago

Idk why you got 7 disagree's. Although I thought the skating vid was funny especially when the guy fixes the bench and puts it back in place and another guy runs into it and knocks the bench and him over

Myst4225d ago

Meh doesn't worry me much anymore. People disagree just to do so, to rile people's nerves or something else. I've come to expect it

*shrugs*

Snookies124226d ago

LOL! That freaking Skate 3 video collection was just amazing... I want that game now...

Myst4226d ago

Lmfao I just saw it and I haven't laughed that hard in a while my eyes are watery.

Relientk774225d ago

no_more_heroes4226d ago

Sp1d3ynut4225d ago

I don't know that it's truly a bug....it is a Japanese game, after all. ;)

EA dodges accusations of FIFA 12/13 Wii being the same game

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?

badz1494248d ago

this has been going on the PSP for so long! why complain now? it's no surprise that EA is not going to invest too much for a console that is in its way out and Wii versions are always just like the PS2 and PSP versions - cheap money grabbing ports! for FIFA, the money is always on 360 and PS3 since 2008!

I'm not defending EA here but that's what happen when even Nintendo has abandoned the Wii now!

dark-hollow4248d ago (Edited 4248d ago )

The problem is how much they ask for it.

$20-$40 is steep for this lazy repackaging and they take advantage of the ignorance of those who buy it.

if you don't want to invest in a dying system then don't bother at all, but don't rip off those who's still game on these systems and expect nobody to complain.

TheColbertinator4248d ago

lol EA repackaging old games into the new version each year?

Wait until the Madden fans find out...oh wait nevermind.

GillHarrison4248d ago

They literally mean the same game, with just updated rosters and logos. No other changes whatsoever.

TheColbertinator4248d ago

EA strikes again.

EA 18 - Gamers 0

profgerbik4248d ago (Edited 4248d ago )

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?

wastedcells4248d ago

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.

FIFA 13: 8 FIFA 12 Star Players You Should Consider Again

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.
