Can you change the buttons i cant seem to figure it out , game looks good apart from that

[SligoBrewer]

will be traded

PC version is buggy to say the least.

Can't enter any of the online modes as it crashes straight back to the Desktop

It also randomly crashes at points in the game - had to start 4 seperate League Competitions due to it crashing.

Will be taking it back tomorrow for refund, spending that cash on beer or something else useful and waiting for them to sort the damn thing out

I mean - my PC cost me £650 for the base unit on it's own - it's one of the top range models kit wise

you need to download seperate files to play online, read the readme :D

Its says so in the game when you click on online.

Its not a bad game fact i can play as players nearly look like pats players makes it playable but its too easy.

Hint go 4 3 3 and you should beat anyone with some simple passes.


OT i seriously doubt you got a top pc for 650 one of my graphics cards cost that alone, hasnt crashed on me and Alt tabbing works perfectly as the game is still running as i post this.

Had a go at the FIFA 08 demo and the PES 2008 demo last night. Wasn't overly impressed with the FIFA game, thought it felt more stilted that the PES game, although the presentation (menus, etc) were far more polished and accessible than PES.
The mini game of Ronaldinho doing tricks was a nice addition, but I reckon you could get tired of it easily

Is the pro evo demo on playstation network yet ?

I have the full fifa game on Ps3 impressive but i just cant get into it looks great still plays like fifa though , Cant change the buttons cant use the d pad it will be going back next week trade in before the price drops when pro evo comes out .

Absolutely shocking game. Senseless player ratings, only top top players look anyway realistic.
National team selections are comedy, I mean when was the last time Hartson played for Wales?

Steven Reid looks like a white guy with a massive mustache

Aiden McGeady and Robbie are highest rated players at 83, Dunne not even at 80.

Every long range shot stays down and is on target but goalkeeper gobbles them up. Pass up the flanks into the box and you can score EVERY time.

You can score 4 times in stoppage time.

Pro evolution 4 is far better, let alone 5 and 6.

Only redeeming factor is goalie can come up for a corner.

finally dRagged City to theiR first league title and no championS League.

The game is delayed on ps3 too, be out later on ps3 than 360 or PC.

Got FIFA 08 for the PSP. I actually think the gameplay is WORSE than 07. Player reactions are woeful to say the least, no matter what team you play their reactions are quicker. Hate the fact that if you walk into another player a free is given. Passing is woefully way ward, even if you have two players ahead of you running into space, when you go to pass to them, the pass will sometimes inexplicably go the opposite direction and just to the opposing team. Also when injury time pops up, it lasts FOREVER especially when the computer is in posession. And to top it off, when the CPU gets close to the 18 yard box, CONFUSION is abound as the game can't decide which of your defenders is in play, and they all takje turns at peeling away leaving a big gaping hole for the CPU to run throw.

Woeful, ABSOLUTELY woeful. :mad:
