2006 FIFA World Cup (EA Sports)

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

This is such a fun game, no jokes. Me and two mates have literally been playing it since 1pm until 6pm.

Sticky keyboard? It's just that Fifa and EA aren't exactly held in the highest esteem here.

No I mean for 360, they said there'd be a demo you could grab off the marketplace like there currently is for Kameo and Madden, etc.
 
Re: FIFA 06 - Road to World Cup (Xbox 360)

Dont worry about getting a demo Classic, it's BOBBINS MATE. I have played this game too, so no one say I'm such a spooner for canning it without playing it, maybe, just maybe it's ok with mates, but on the standard TV it dont look next gen.

The controls are pretty damn rubbish and the game just doesnt play well, FIFA 06 played better, had more about it, this game disc aint much more than a demo with the limited features it has, replays are awful looking, so many frames dissappear, likenesses are ok for some, and truly awful for others!!!!!!!

Load up PES5 and enjoy, this is pure pish.
 
Re: FIFA 06 - Road to World Cup (Xbox 360)

Looks so damn cool though. I'd be so tempted to buy this game just for its looks and presentation.
 
Re: FIFA 06 - Road to World Cup (Xbox 360)

If you have HDTV, then maybe it does look great, but really on standard TV it doesnt look that great, I mean it, dont be swayed by those scans above.
 
Re: FIFA 06 - Road to World Cup (Xbox 360)

What are you talking about. Even on standard TV it looks stunning.
 
Re: FIFA 06 - Road to World Cup (Xbox 360)

it looks stunning? so what?

who cares what it looks like if it plays like a bag of shite

All the screens look afwul except this one, it might looks shiny and have a lot of polygons or whatever but the players do not look like people and that's a big problem. :p
 
Re: FIFA 06 - Road to World Cup (Xbox 360)

You lot are so picky. Just because it aint PES you're all saying it doesnt even look good
 
Re: FIFA 06 - Road to World Cup (Xbox 360)

Picky? We have a right to be picky, EA want 50 quid for this, 50 SHEETS!!!! Do you get your money easy then? It simply aint worth half that, esp seeing World Cup 2006 will be here in about 6 months time.

I'm not picky, old FIFA's looked fine, up to about 2003 I think.
 
Re: FIFA 06 - Road to World Cup (Xbox 360)

I don't mind the fact they want 50 quid for this as all launch consoles games are at this price point (ridge racer 5 on ps2 anyone?), its just the fact they are giving it the same name as the only good fifa (FIFA 98 RTWC) and the dont even have the leagues (like fifa 98 rtwc) and the other options (cup 5 a side etc) and you can't even play the actual world cup (this is the case on the NTSC version I played, is it the same here? someone confirm. Now that is what takes the piss tbh.

I mean Tiger 06, Madden and NBA Live look great on the 360 absolutely fantastic tbh but they have less features than there previous gen counterparts and that takes the piss... rushed out for launch gumph... i'll wait for NBA 2k6 for my Basketball fix, Madden 07 for NFL and Pro Evo 6 for my footie fix... and as for NHL, naaa that went out of fashion the same time as the mighty ducks.

LOL:lol: -this is the most sensible comment I've seen on this thread. Me too, I'm waiting till the prices drop about a year after PS3 comes out......
 
Re: FIFA 06 - Road to World Cup (Xbox 360)

Looked at gameplay videos, looks like they've just ripped off PES' 8 way diagonal dribbling. Silly move considering it's by far the worst part of Konami's game.
 
Re: FIFA 06 - Road to World Cup (Xbox 360)

Well ive got my xboox 360 yesterday and im wondering if you could help me with something. Ive got fifa rttwc and i like the game, but im having a problem.

Why is there so much slowdown? I can accept this on the pc - if your pc isnt good enough to play the game in hand, but on a console? wtf? this is un acceptable.

I have a 32" plasma - thats a hdtv and im not using the hd lead - as i havent got one yet, would this make a difference? im using the standard composite lead you get at the mo.

If not - then im afriad myxbox 360 is for sale :( im not having a 'next gen' console that cant even play games at a decent frame rate.

Have you tried changing the screen setting on the 360 itself,im using vga cable atm with a resolution of 1280x768 which is very nice with no slowdown wot so ever but i had to go into the xbox settings so i could get it.I know with a proper hd cable the xbox sets it up automatically.

As for composite i dont know as i havent tried it yet and i dont think i will anyway.I have the Sony Bravia hdready 26" and it is superb imho.


Like i say play around with the setting im sure you will sort it.
 
Re: FIFA 06 - Road to World Cup (Xbox 360)

The demo can allready be downloaded from the marketplace. Cutscenes look really good, but from a distance, the only thing that looks better (than PES5)is Ronaldinho's flowing hair...

And i hate the fact that when you reach halftime the game forces you to quit the demo altogether, unlike Nba Live demo where u go back to the gym to shoot around...
 
Re: FIFA 06 - Road to World Cup (Xbox 360)

SERIOUSLY

Is this FIFA or Planet of the Apes?!

Look at Rooney...look at Ronaldo for God's sake, he's one angry ape. The players move like monkeys too, trodding along...no doubt weighed down by their blu-tac type shorts. Does Dida (I think it's him in the pictures, not look like that Xombie fella from Land of the Dead). It's a joke.

Yeah, those screens are good to some degree...but have you played it? You need to play a football game with a standard camera, and in a playable view all these nice graphical touches are lost (animations are crap like).

...and Trezequet is white.

Gawd, I really hate FIFA, I hate the way plebs like it cos of the presentation...I just want to stick a needle in their eye. It's not even like football, PES used to look far worse graphically, but in their quest for realism, it's gone too far...remember the first Virtua Tennis when they did each individual tooth? What a joke that was, looked like black winegums stuck inbetween the crack.

Just get with the program, EA. How long have they got the FIFA license for? LIFE? Can't wait for Fifa Evolution Soccer..
 
Re: FIFA 06 - Road to World Cup (Xbox 360)

ok - ive now bought the vga cable and im playing at the highest res - i am still getting the poor framerate at the shot replays and its just not good enough. I also have king kong and thats fine - although the graphics arent that good, not what id say 'next gen' im gonna sell me xbox 360 - im not that impressed at all, its just not much of an improvement over the xbox in my opinion.

You're basing whether or not to keep your 360 on Fifa and King Kong??

Have you played Call of Duty 2 or Project Gotham3 at all? Maybe Perfect Dark on Live? You need to before you sell it.
 
Re: FIFA 06 - Road to World Cup (Xbox 360)

i agree with him, sell it mate theyre really shit these x360s...

will you take £300 :)
