    More People Play FIFA Than You Could Possibly Imagine

    One thing I've picked up over the years is how oblivious most Americans are to the success of EA's FIFA. It's not your fault, just, it's not a game on most people's radar. More »

    Back at GC in Leipzig we told you about the Live Season System, a nifty little feature that will be showing up in FIFA 09. From the video this looks pretty promising. The Live Season System allows you to follow your favorite player through his real career and the game will update weekly accordingly. The catch? You'll have to subscribe to each league or all of them in a package and unfortunately, only the first league is free.

    First Look At FIFA 09, PS3 Gets Exclusive "Game Mode"

    Being an EA Sports game, when we talk the latest version of FIFA, we're not talking sweeping changes. We're talking the slightest of tinkering. Especially when you consider they're closing the gap on Pro Evo's lead in the quality stakes, and as such obviously don't want to go blowing that with any radical alterations. So when EA are talking up FIFA 09 with stuff like "Custom Team Tactics" (plus other "innovations" you could swear they already introduced between FIFA's 98-08), it's only of interest to the sharpest point of the FIFA fanbase. What is interesting, however, is an improved animation system (long FIFA's chief problem), as well as talk of the PS3 version of the game scoring an exclusive "game mode" not found on the other iterations. Being PS3-only, could it be related to Home? The option of a quick kickaround in the park, jumpers for goalposts, perhaps? More »
