2006 FIFA World Cup (EA Sports)

Re: FIFA 06 - Road to FIFA World Cup (Xbox 360)

Why doesnt everyone just buy PES5 and play it? i am!

Or buy FIFA from Game with there 10 days return crap
 
Re: FIFA 06 - Road to FIFA World Cup (Xbox 360)

Or at the minute, anything you buy in Game can be taken back until the 7th of January so you could have it for almost a month then take it back ;)
 
Re: FIFA 06 - Road to FIFA World Cup (Xbox 360)

Oh my. . this game got panned by Gamespot. Got a 6.8 and is said to be worse than than the ps2/xbox version which they say was EA's best effort.

No club teams. You qualify for the World Cup, but can't play it? Only qualification groups in there is Europe - you'll have to manually create the other regions!

I will be passing on this.
 
Re: FIFA 06 - Road to FIFA World Cup (Xbox 360)

Nope, cause EA will be releasing a World Cup game, so why the fuck would they ruin chances of selling that game if you can already play it in the the 06 version. It's all about the moolah amigo, plus MS our an official partner of the World Cup. Basically FIFA RTWC is not even half a game, hence why it's been panned everywhere.

I'll get a demo from Xbox Live but wont buy it. Not worth 50 quid. Worth a rent

Thats absolutley disgraceful...and some people say Konami are money grabbers! What a stupid pointless game....fuckwits!
 
Re: FIFA 06 - Road to FIFA World Cup (Xbox 360)

It's a shame there's no PES at launch. An updated PES5 with FIFA06RTWC level graphics would've convinced me to buy a 360 at launch, I'll be waiting for PES6 on PS3 now and won't be buying 360 til Halo 3's out.
 
Re: FIFA 06 - Road to FIFA World Cup (Xbox 360)

Well PES 360 will be out first, presumably.

Thats got to be tempting..

really? I thought you said you were gonna get this game with the console?

Gotta say, after having an extensive play of it at work I was starting to get a bit bored of it. At first, like evry fifa imo, it surprises you in how easy it is to pick up and play. The problem is the wow factor doesnt last for long.

For me, the big let down is the actual player animations and the way they all seem the same. Its been a problem for fifa games for ages.

Supposedly they've been workin on this game for ages. With so much power to work with, and with so few teams and game modes they should have nailed player representation 100%. Not just how they look, but how they move, shoot, run, dribble etc

But no, they're all the same. It looks great imo, but after a few friendlies I was bored. Theres no sort of modes to keep you going either. No manager mode, no edit mode...whoever said this is a rent title was spot on. Time to change the avatar...
 
Re: FIFA 06 - Road to FIFA World Cup (Xbox 360)

Thanks for the heads up Adonis.

I think this will be a 10 day rental from GAME.
 
Re: FIFA 06 - Road to FIFA World Cup (Xbox 360)

As I keep repeating myself, you can buy games now at Game, and take them back until the 7th of Jan.............. ](*,)

Re: FIFA 06 - Road to FIFA World Cup (Xbox 360)

Well done.
 
Re: FIFA 06 - Road to FIFA World Cup (Xbox 360)

i think what he means is the special (i think) "Xmas deal" they're (GAME)doing which i saw in one of thier catalouges. if you buy any game from now at any GAME station, you can return it back with your reciept and get your cash back that instant.. but this is valid till 7th Jan (i think) so go purchasing crazy at any "GAME" store and be certain if you return them before 7th Jan you will definitely get your mony back..;)

NB: soz Holio missed your last post..;)
 
Re: FIFA 06 - Road to FIFA World Cup (Xbox 360)

Re: FIFA 06 - Road to FIFA World Cup (Xbox 360)

Speaking of faces apparantly most of the "not so famous players" faces in game is just blank which means if you score a goal with a "not so famous player" and you play it back in replay mode, you might just be freaked out :lol: so before hand just thought i should remind you or let you know ;)..........
 
Re: FIFA 06 - Road to FIFA World Cup (Xbox 360)

holio that better not be tim westwood!!!!!

You should be banned or show him the photo so he knows what race he is.
 
Re: FIFA 06 - Road to FIFA World Cup (Xbox 360)

Whats wrong with Westwood, the guy is a joker. By joker, I mean total penis but ultimately he's harmless.

To stay on topic, I still want Fifa :( I know its utter tripe but I still want to play it.

Scratch what I just said.. please head over to Eurogamer where you will see an amzing review of Fifa:RTWC.

http://www.eurogamer.net/article.php?article_id=61919

LMAO. 2/10. I wont even be trialling this for 10 days.

i think this thread should just about be put to bed now because i think in about 14days time, this thread will be the last thing EA will want to read (wait a minute .... it is :lol: ) after people play this game for about 3 days and come back slating it.......just my opinion anyways (i'll just get that clear before i'm bombarded by........................
 
Re: FIFA 06 - Road to FIFA World Cup (Xbox 360)

Ok 2/10 but wheres the review? ive seen it get 6/10 on gamespot saying that they have taken things out of it that were in the Xbox and PS2 versions of FIFA 06. I have played the demo on the Xbox 360 Kiosk at my local gamestation and its not that bad at all! very similar to ordinary FIFA 06 for Xbox and PS2 for which I rated 7/10, but I would say this isnt a significant enough change for the so called Next-Gen. Same as the MS NBA 2k6 by 2K sports.... not enough change both graphically and games play wise to suggest its Next Gen... Project Gotham 3 so far appears to show Next Gen qualities.

Re: FIFA 06 - Road to FIFA World Cup (Xbox 360)

My advice? for all us soccer fans lets wait for Konami to show what they are making up for PES6/WE10 and hope it IMPROVES on PES5 which I thought was a little too dissapointing to warrant a £40 price tag!

Re: FIFA 06 - Road to FIFA World Cup (Xbox 360)

Maybe EA made them remove it
 
Re: FIFA 06 - Road to FIFA World Cup (Xbox 360)

i can swear i read that review 20 mins ago........ oh well.. if they (EA)dont want reviews like that only they can put an end to it (but not that way they might have just done it on that site) by creating a game worth calling a next-generation title as they themselves called it. FIFA06 RTWC is (as far as i'm concerned) NOT a next-generation title but a routine world cup sequel EA produces after every 4 years to ....... well we all know why it's developed dont we now??? ;)
