FIFA Street 3 Trailer

drunk pandas | 2 Comments

EA released a trailer today for FIFA Street 3 for the PS3 and Xbox 360. Looks pretty good, even though it’s just one character on screen doing some ball tricks.

Just one question… why does Ronaldinho look like he hasn’t eaten in 6 months?

FIFA 08 Impressions

If I had to describe FIFA 08 in two words, it would be stunning and difficult. The game looks great, I knew that going in. The big question here is the gameplay. Every year they promise that it will get better, and this year… inconclusive. You only get a 4 minute half. For the size of the demo, about 700 mb, I don’t know where it all went. The game is smooth, but playing FIFA is a lot like chess. You need strategy. You cannot dribble through everyone or just blast the ball downfield. They game has a ton of promise. I need to play a full version before I can get a decent feel for it. A very cool caveat is that you can play 1 v1 against the goalie in between halves and while the game loads. Very cool.

FIFA 08 ScreenMajor Nelson dropped word letting us know that there’s now a demo for FIFA 08 on the Xbox 360. The demo is available in Australia, Canada, Hong Kong, Korea, Singapore, Taiwan, United States.Oddly enough, EA didn’t make the demo available in THE biggest market for soccer in the world, Europe. According to the Major:

EA has told me this demo is coming to Europe ‘very soon’. The moment it is released in Europe I will make a post. I don’t know the exact date.

The demo weighs in at 702.7 MB, so it should take a decent amount of time to download. The demo is also available today on the PS3, but again, not in Europe. EA really dropped the ball there.
