FIFA World Cup 2010

Bought this tonight and it looks really good. A few practice pens and then straight into Captain Your Country mode with my 100% pro from Fifa 10. Scored my first goal when a short backpass was going to their keeper and he just ran out and seemed to run over/past the ball so I just had an open goal to tap into :S
 
Guys, Gamestation are doing the best deal. If you say you're trading FIFA 10 for FIFA World Cup 2010 they'll give you TWENTY QUID off the full price.

Oh and I was up until 1am playing this last night, it's fecking brilliant.
 
I use Croatia online - it really pisses people off when I beat them with a 4 star team too.
 
I got to two finals last night, with Wales i lost 5-4 to a guy as England, and with Netherlands Antilles i lost 6-2 to a guy as Brazil.

I'm a big game FIFA bottler it seems. Three finals, three losses. So i've started one as France just to try and boost my moral.
 
feck sake, my copy was attempted to be deliverd today, me thinking it was just a standard first class delivery didnt bother to get my Dad up so he could sign for it (I had work at 9 today) and guess what...it had to be signed for so now I have wait till fecking Tuesday to pick it up :mad:
 
pwned potato man. I really want this game now, but am totally skint. I wonder how easy it is to shoplift an xbox game.....
 
Top, top game and if this is a taster for FIFA 11, we're in for a treat.

Scored an absolute beauty with Rooney last night, 35 yard half volley and it went right in the top corner. It was like a fecking bullet and Casillas had no chance.

If anyone wants a game, my gamertag is Talking Vulture :)
 
So where is doing this for the cheapest price then?

You should change it to Jamie Redknapp.
 
Thats great fellas, glad its sorted.

Worth me picking it up?

Probably, if you can get it cheap enough. It's not as big as Fifa 10 but what do you expect from a WC game. The modes are pretty good. No way that it should be £40 or so, though. It's a trimmed down version of Fifa 10 without the club teams, basically.
 
Implied by you stating that it's the same game when it doesn't play much like Fifa 10? :) Had you played it, you would have noticed that.

:)

It plays almost identical with just a few minor adjustments. It's slicker, looks nicer and a few bugs have been fixed but it's quite clearly still the same game.

I'm still going to buy it mind... :)
 
Is Kenya on the game?

I feel like taking the nation of my birth to World Cup glory..
 
I think I need to stop playing it on Beginner. Four games in and I'm starting to wallop everyone. Time for a new campaign on Normal.

Then in about 9 years I'll be ready to play online.
 
Yes. Most nations are.

Brilliant. Yeah, I was aware it had a vast list of teams, but Kenya once had a ban on the team appearing on computer football games.

Most believed it due to the fact it would Kenya look weak.

Get it on legendary and stop being a fanny :)
 
The new online way of playing is a brilliant way to play online. Means you play people of your similar ability all the time.

Not like COD where you spend 2 days convincing yourself you love the game, and then come to the conclusion that being alive and getting 4 kills a round isnt worth spending half the "playing time" being regenerated because some obese 12 year old American kid who doesn't go to school knows exactly where to kill you from, over and over again.

Biscuit isn't American.
 
I just scored a goal in Captain Your Country and the goal icon was next to Rooney's name...

It's corrected itself now.

The "goal icon" doesn't represent goal scorers, but the current MoM...

Which is what?

I've only had one online WC tourney where I smashed everyone in the group stage before losing 4-2 in the 1st knockout round when my defender mistimed his header and the control system was sluggish and prevented me from selecting my last defender to track a run.

The "goal icon" doesn't represent goal scorers, but the current MoM...

I've realised that since. Bit of a stupid icon to use, though.
 
Loving Captain Your Country, was a bit gutted when it told me all my FIFA 10 pro stats were being reset but you build back up quite quickly.

It is a chore playing in the centre of midfield with Huddlestone in the England B Team though, the fat spastic seems to love running into me. Not much better with Heskey ahead of you in the senior side, ends up on his arse whenever you put him through on goal (which I supposed is realistic).
 
Which is what?

I presume it's the fact that when you play a ranked game on FIFA10 is pairs you with someone that's on a similar score level to try and match players with similar ability.

It's a much better way of doing it, unlike on 09 when you could get paired with someone that had never played before.
 
I'm currently against Rwanda with Spain and the cnut is watching every cut-scene. I'm gonna make him watch every goal replay...
