An Interesting Concept: A FIFA Without Buttons
By: Sneakers O'Toole |When you’re about to kick a ball in real life, do you think, “Push B and aim far post”, or do you cock your leg back and let fly?
Thank you for the demonstration, Agostino.
Unless you’re some sort of crazy robot or cyborg (who is also conveniently controlled by an XBox controller), the answer is [...]
VotD: Stuff I Don’t Have the Patience to Learn
By: Sneakers O'Toole |Whether or not they should have spent this much time working on juggling tricks when there are more important issues to address is a totally different story, but here’s a nice little tutorial on ye olde FIFA juggling tricks.

From the EA Horse’s Mouth
By: Sneakers O'Toole |I’m in the ER for an asthma attack, and I have been searching FIFA info while I wait for treatment. God bless WiFi.
Per EA (http://www.ea.com/games/fifa-soccer),
“On the heels of winning 25 international gaming awards with FIFA Soccer 09, the top-selling soccer franchise from EA SPORTS™ is surpassed with FIFA Soccer 10. Responding to consumer feedback [...]
VotD:Goals That Aren’t Amazing But Still Quite Good

By: Sneakers O'Toole |The only thing I got out of this video is that I like Marseille’s jersey. Neither game looks much different from the 09 edition, but my God, did Konami put EA to shame in the realistic looking boot department or what?

Beware: Users Are Worse Than They Appear.
By: Sneakers O'Toole |The venomous Ronald-hoe

This peculiar species [...]
The Feud: Konami’s Wallet vs. EA’s Buffoons
By: Sneakers O'Toole |First and foremost, I wish Dave Martinez and all of my predecessors the best. I’m grateful for this opportunity; may they live long and prosper.
It finally happened; EA made a solid soccer game. By some odd happenstance, the schmucks that get paid to create a soccer game served up a game that didn’t make [...]
