I think all of the Premiership clubs have their third kits mate.

Nice pics mate! Can you answer me this:

In UEFA CL I loved playing as Benfica BUT their home kit was more pink-looking than red. Is this fixed? Also, what is the away strip like?
 
Re: FIFA 08 (Next Gen Chat)

Ah, Quaresma. If I get a job in the Premier League, I'll buy him :) What's his overall rating?
 
Re: FIFA 08 (Next Gen Chat)

Been playing all day with a few of my mates, I am very impressed. As are a few of my previously PES biased friends.

First impressions are that it has improved greatly from the demo, certainly seems more responsive. Can't say much for the AI as I have been playing human opponents all day, but the atmosphere, the sound and the general presentation is all incredible.

I struggle to find any real dissapointments so far, aside from the odd goalkeeping error - they seem to be pretty dodgy on crosses to the far post but even that does not seem to be as apparant as in the demo where I thought they were poor.
 
Re: FIFA 08 (Next Gen Chat)

Just on a note from seeing these screenshots. You know when a game is being created and the developers release screenshots, you think "Wow, are they REALLY in-game shots?" and when I seen FIFA 08's, I thought they were too good to be in-game. But when you look at people taking screenshots, it shows how impressive the graphics really are.

Re: FIFA 08 (Next Gen Chat)

In the demo I have been using:

Semi
Manual
Semi
Semi
Manual

Ok, so basically you have been scoring using the MANUAL function?

I have been using SEMI on the demo, but I will try to master manual shooting before the game comes out here in the states. This will keep me occupied from going LOCO and away from the looney bin 8-[

Re: FIFA 08 (Next Gen Chat)

Shooting is either assisted or manual I thought? No semi? I can't remember now actualy.

Re: FIFA 08 (Next Gen Chat)

Oh my god!!

How GOOD is 'Be a Pro' mode? I am totally addicted.

Been playing as a midfielder for Southend (Nicky Bailey), then had a go as John Carew of Villa.

It is superb - the way it tells you best positions, who is a threat etc and your team mates generally do what you tell them, meaning you can make some lovely runs.

I love the clostrophic feel to it - it almost feels the same as really playing. You have to get into position, make sure you are free, then call for the ball. When you get it, its a real nervous panic as you quickly scout round to find the best ball on.

It is superb - I really cannot praise it enough! Cannot wait to go online with it.

Isnt it meant to be 2v2 at launch? I couldnt see this, so maybe a patch from EA tomorrow will add these things?

Re: FIFA 08 (Next Gen Chat)

lmao, you a fellow shopto no show aswell?

Nope, I didn't have the money to order from ShopTo in the end :( I'm off to Gamestation tomorrow. Not impressed with high street stores not breaking release, I think I'll order my new games online from now on.
 
Re: FIFA 08 (Next Gen Chat)

Yep, my Fosters has gone. Stella next, the fruity loop stuff that makes you fight. Dodgy. Still, nobody around to fight with :)

I might drink Stella when we play the online league, get all aggressive down the mic :lol:
