FIFA 08

Well, yesterday I took the big leap and bought a Samsung R8 40" TV and a PS3 with FIFA08 and Uncharted.
My PSN username is grantashman if anyone wants to add me for a game or two.
Still adjusting to 08 so no doubt I'll have my ass handed to me a few (hundred) times, but hey, it's all in the name of fun.

I dont think i could beat anyone on Fifa08.
I can beat the average 'legendary' player but up from that...i dunno.
On pro evo- i feel i could beat anyone on these forums as well...but i doubt I would be able to match the 'best' of these forums on with their home game (fifa)
I am thinkin bout buyin Fifa- so I can go online...but u guys all play ps3??? i dont have a ps3! only ps2.
I have played in Masterleague (career mode in pro evo) as Real Madrid and as Central Coast Mariners as well as a team I called Bravona FC (sounded not bad)...it doesnt make a difference to me- I just sometimes use Madrid in an effort to re-establish the now elusive glory days...
completed a treble with mariners after 3-4 seasons as opposed to 2 seasons with Madrid.

I'd play you on pro-ev Kareem, if the 2008 multiplayer wasn't bollocks.
Don't take any offence, but you're just the kind of player I'd love to beat. :p

lol
every1 loves to beat me
my ex-team (Umina 18b's) would do anything to make sure OUFC 18b's (my team) lose and that I dont score a goal.
I have even got threats I wont leave the field via walking...:S
People love stickin it to me in everything probs coz I am someone who tries my hardest and plays to win and achieve which means if you beat me in something...you have put in some hard effort to do so!
I would want to beat me 2! LOL

i remember my 1st football game
Not really my 1st-
2nd hand Fifa 98: road to world cup
Never worked (got it for like $5 from Video Ezy i think)

1st- International Superstar Soccer (aka winning eleven 1)- Konami
Great fun on this game with only national teams (my favs were Brazil and France).
Won many cups and leagues...my thumb hurt so much (i was only 10)(year 2000)
All players were fictional- tjhe start of Konami scabbing on pro licences

2nd- Fifa 2001- I loved this game sooo much. Played with Egypt all the time. Didnt follow muchto do with clubs back in 2001. I was a fifa- boy

3rd- Pro Evo 2 (2003) (aka. Winning Eleven 5)- I fell in love with this game. No licenses (Real Madrdi were called Chamartin).

4th- Pro Evo 3 and Fifa 2004 (only time to ever have both)- Played mainly pro evo...but had a bit of fun with Fifa every once and a while!

since then pro evo 4, 5, 6 to date!
My favourite game of the times was probs Fifa 2001 or maybe Pro Evo 2 just for the leaps they made back then (from earlier games)...

That was 2001 wasnt it, with the best fifa invention ever the intentional foul. ;D

My 1st football game was Fifa World Cup 98.
It's a good game for when you feel like chucking the sim part out and gettin back to an arcade game.

2002 was a bit to easy, you could score from a kick off.

road to world cup 98 was my fav, that had 5 a side indoor and me and mates would intentionally get 2 guys each sent off and play with 2 each (plus keeper) for 20mins lol, always end up with 20-30 goal games it was fun lol. And the theme song was song number 2 by blur

yea...
we were talkin on PES forums that indoor soccer mode should be made in the Pro Evo (or even be brought back to Fifa)...even if it was part of training mode. It sounded awesome!

i used to love that...i hated they took that ability away!!!!
I remember in 2001 I begged my dad to play Fifa with me!
He agreed (only time I ever played soccer with him on ps2).
I asked if we could turn fouls off (my dad's a footy guy so he doesnt know all that much about soccer). He said i could.
His keeper got the ball I slide tackled him and the ball rolled into the goals (would have been a red card if fouls were on).
He made me turn fouls back on...and he never played soccer ever again (well not with me!)
lol
