FIFA 09 is looking sick
and with PS3 2.4.0 just released, should make playing online a bit easier.
If anyone wants a game I'm grantashman

However, we've had problems before.

 

[the_monarch]

hopefully the stadiums will be better in the new one and hopefully there will be weather in it as well.

 

[fedelta]

they should have at least one aussie stadium

 

[Jocwa08]

in 09 i want to see more internationals.
world cup maybe ?
you as coach.
having to make selections.

 

[fedelta]

yeah i was thinking about that the other day.
in manager mode if you do so and so you get the job as national coach and have world cup etc

You can do it in manager games (ffs players can get married and have children in manager games) so I cant see why the quoted idea cant happen. Great idea if it were to happen

 

[Part_Timer]

i wish the transfers were a bit more involved, more things to do as coach you should have a post match question after every game to abuse, praise, ignore your team or something

 

[Jocwa08]

yeah fifa do a lot of match updates,
but not to many pre/post match updates.
i like that stuff like managing your team and
scouting and giving young guys from youth a go,
i reckon its just as good as playing the games.

In the Football Manager games you get to do pre-match half time and full time team talks, and you interact a lot more with the board and with the players. You also have a Reserve and under 18's And there is all the major international tournaments as well as their under-age equivalents. The money side of the FM games is better as well with prizemoney for tournaments, TV etc. The transfers are more in depth with clauses such as an initial fee plus more over a period of time as well as sell on clauses....I doubt that the FIFA games could include all of these but some would be nice

[trev]

yeah they need like updates every month or 2

 

[Jocwa08]

im really keen to get football manager 2008,

[priorpeter]

i was thinking about starting a separate thread for FM2008. yeah, i got it a couple of weeks ago - I rate it, it's worthwhile. Also, I believe it's still 50% off at EB, so check it out!

thats sick, how much did you pay for it, if you dont mind me asking ?

 

[priorpeter]

i paid $50 - off ebay though. i think it was like $70 or $80 at EB - less a 50% discount, which i wasn't aware of at the time of my purchase...

i'm pretty sure it was 50% at EB, it may have only been 25% or 30% though so best to check i 'spose!
