It’s so good. They’ve finely tuned so much of the game that I almost regret making voodoo dolls of all of the EA staff…almost. We’ll see how I feel in a month; that’s when the true quality of the game reveals itself.
Let’s list our firsts:
1) First goal scored
2) First result
3) First goal conceded
4) First ‘WTF!?!’ moment
5) First result in net
6) First reaction to the online redemption code
1) Marco Borriello picks Lazio defender’s pocket and passes the ball into the near post in the 89th
2) Roma 1- Lazio 0
3) Friggin’ Floccari
4) Ronaldinho kicks the ball off of Juan’s ass and into the back of the net
5) 7-2 in favor of my opponent
6) “They haven’t made enough money off of us!?!”
Your turn

It’s out, and I never feel better about spending $60 than I do during the first week of FIFA ownership.
WOOT!

The Demo finally showed up about a week ago in online marketplaces. However….
I don’t do demos because of what I worry that it will do to my perception of the final product. “They didn’t fix this glaring problem with the demo? Lazy, incompetent @#$%#!”
Roll film…
I LOLed at the bicycle kicks, or rather banana peel slips with a ball involved. Kudos for the song though.
Feel free to share your thoughts on the demo. I will gladly wait another week. Until then, all glory to the engines.

We’re less than a month away from the release of the game, and I’m still not finding anything good…other than the fact that you can now be a keeper in the game. Everyone say your hail mary’s that this is not what they’ve spend the last 14 months working on.
j/k…
meh…

Save the shameless self promotion put forth by Hulu and replace Mapple with any sports video game (not titled FIFA 10), and you’ve got us goofs in our virtual sports worlds. The most glaring, money-burning example hits stores on Tuesday.

Everyone here has watched moronic decision after moronic decision by those who are presumed to be the best of the best. Pfft, no way will Sidney Govou suck for 179 games straight; 178 has to be the threshold.
Surely, they can’t be as bad as they appear, otherwise, they would have been weeded out somewhere lower on the hierarchal ladder. Surely, any idiot who spends their lonely nights with an Xbox controller couldn’t do as well.
God knows that this sentiment gets tossed around every forum, especially during transfer season. As the Ali Dias and Simone Lorias of the world crush fanbases hopes and dreams by single-handedly taking teams into the relegation zone, we wonder who couldn’t do better. Then the supposed voice of reason somehow makes it known that no one else could do any better.
Raymond Domenech begs to differ…

So, I just got my laptop back, and I’m writing up something of a tribute to the gamers in comparison to certain managers. In the meantime, our beloved’s offspring is in its second trimester. Whether or not the daddy wants it, he has to face it now.
Instead of boring words, we’ve got video because everyone likes the books with pictures more than those without.

If there is one thing that I’ve learned in life, besides the fact that you shouldn’t touch downed electric lines, it’s that putting a star next to a player’s name in a video game makes them unstoppable. No one can cover Randy Moss, get A-Roid out, or defend Kobe. While the Kobe thing may be more true than not, it gets annoying to get torched by the virtual version of a player just because he drives a yellow Porsche or is on every Got Milk poster ever created.
Based on the totally realistic star power of the 2010 FIFA World Cup game, we now know…

So, when I went into GameStop to reserve the world cup game, the man behind the desk looked at me like “What the hell?” I might have been the first person to even mention the game on store property. I looked at him like, “just humor me.” I show up two days later and pick up my reserved copy of the game no one else knew was coming out, freshly purchased Italy jersey blowing in the wind. I pranced out to my car with the GameStop bag in my hand, not to play the game for a few weeks.

Since the 2008 area, something about customization in the football simulations we love has bothered me. It’s nothing that would ever deter me from getting a game, but it’s one of those things that I always notice and think, “why did they change that?” Being a bigger fan of the Serie A than any other league, it’s something that comes up more and more (cue EPL fans saying that the diving isn’t in-depth enough for Italians).
