FIFA 08

Post by RaM »

Anyone played/ own FIFA 08?

I have it on PSP, and I must say, Arsenal really is underrated in the game. Here's the stats they gave, I agree with alot of 'em, but some....

Lehmann: 83
Fabianski: 75
Almunia: 75

Eboue: 78
Toure: 86
Gallas: 85
Clichy: 77
Sagna: 76
Senderos: 77
Hoyte: 72
Traore: 63

Rosicky: 85
Gilberto: 82
Fabregas: 85
Hleb: 81
Denilson: 75
Walcott: 71
Flamini: 73
Song: 71
Diaby: 73
Diarra: 73

Adebayor: 78
Van Persie: 85
Eduardo: 82
Bendtner: 72
van den Berg: 59




The Mancs are the most overrated in the game, with Nani and Anderson both 82, while the spuds are sickeningly overrated. 4.5 Star team! They rated the spuds the same as us overall!

I haven't played a fifa game for years. Pro Evo is by far the best. Can't wait for the new one.

sounds about right Ram...
I remember in Championship manager, I think it was 3 years ago (close season after Henry had scored 30+ goals and left the football world in his wake), his finishing was 14(/20)!!!

Im sure Alex Ferguson has some sort of final say over all football based computer games!! Like the Simon Cowell of the gaming world..

I bet Abramovich makes donations to the game company too....

John Obi Mikel is 82! Only three less than Fabregas!


AND worse still, I've unlocked the World XI, which consists of:

1. Kahn
2. A. Cole
3. Terry
4. Nesta
5. Roberto Carlos
6. Cristiano Ronaldo
7. Pirlo
8. Ronaldinho
9. Nedved
10. Ronaldo (!!!!!WHY!!!!!)
11. Rooney


Bench:

12. Buffon
13. Maldini
14. Gerrard
15. Viera
16. Shevchenko


Reserves:

17. Eto'o
18. Podolski
19. Cech
20. Lampard
21. Ayala
22. Stam
23. Adriano



It's disgraceful....

And in the Classic XI, none of the greats I would expect. (I'm not old enough to know many, but seriously, no Best? Brady? Bergkamp even?)

I think a lot of computer game programming companies are based in Manchester for some reason. Says it all.

interesting article about our little genius . i wonder if its fifa or pro evolution .


Arsenal's young wizard Cesc Fabregas has admitted that he anonymously plays Arsenal fans on his XBOX.

The young midfielder is a huge XBOX fan and the People are reporting he plays against Arsenal fans on the internet.


He revealed: "Sometimes I choose Inter Milan and Arsenal as my rivals.
"As you chat with your opponent during the game, if they substitute Fabregas I'll tell them, 'No, man, what are you taking him off for? He's playing so well."
