We're circling in on a 250GB PS3 Slim, and this time it's made an appearance at Spanish retailer GAME with an October 8th release date and a copy of Euro-centric FIFA 2010 along for the ride. No pricetag or box shot, but we like where this is headed all the same.
FIFA '10 was released to the public last September to huge praises from both critics and fans. It has a score of 90 on Metacritic.com, and current sits as the 26th best rated game for the 360, and the highest rated sports game on the 360. The closest sports game to FIFA '10 on that list is NHL '10, which sits in 46th place (although it won sports game of the year last year for many publications, but don't get me started on that). But my reasons for FIFA '10 being the best sports game ever is not about ratings or rankings. It is about how the game is the best simulation of any sport, ever.
No Added Sugar's James explains why EA's FIFA World Cup games are unnecessary, and why this particular installment is a worrying insight into FIFA 11.

"Its coming home, its coming home, its coming. Footballs coming home!". There ends my in-depth knowledge of the beautiful game. Sure I've played me some school yard footie and I've taken a stab at the odd football game but truly, honestly – football bores me. Paying £40 for a nylon shirt with the name of a Korean firm on the front just strikes me as a little crazy. What does excite me? The World Cup. Every four years comes my excuse to act like "a real man" and embrace the nation's favourite pastime (excluding binge drinking of course!).
Xbox 360 is dead in Spain.
excellent news, i think i will buy two or three.
Lordkemp you are absolutely right, I apologize for forgetting to include that crucial fact.
