fix the defending first of all. while i'm getting better at it, it does make this year's fifa less fun and easy to pick up and play.

likewhoaaa5350d ago

Just because the defending is new, doesn't mean it needs to be fixed. I didn't like the new defending at first when I was practicing on the demo, but as i played more and more I learned that the defending is what makes this game so much better than any previous installments of this series. I feel that if you take the time to learn how to defend properly you'll actually be rewarded in the end.

Just my two cents.

Anderson85350d ago

i would have to agree.. i hated it at first and considered not buying 12 after playing the demo but the defending is much better, its a skill that needs to be mastered rather than something the comp does for you automatically..

pctrollv45350d ago (Edited 5350d ago )

what dude? you are kidding right? the new defending is what makes this game the best in the series. It makes it harder to score on someone who knows how to use it. It is no longer run and shoot, thats noob stuff. Come on, take your time and learn it. Why does it have to be easy to pick up? for that go play it on the wii, but fifa is trying to get more serious every year and this is their first real step into that. Fifa 12 is by far the best of all.

The defending is definitely better,but with me it's the case of either beating with a 5-0 score,or losing from a 0-5 score.

--Onilink--5350d ago

I hope this means they are going to fix the referees... they dont seem to know how to react to the player impact engine and i have seen (and done) some pretty nasty tackles and there is no foul

N4G mods can go fuck themselves for that warning.

Hilarious things happen when video-game physics go wrong

DSOGaming writes: "This article was inspired by a video that Elias Peppas shared with me. YouTube’s member ‘HelixSnake’ made a compilation of some epic physics fails from Skate 3. And this made us wonder; what could possibly go wrong in a video-game when physics engine go insane? Well, the answer is quite simple. You can get some gay stuff thanks to the Impact Engine of Fifa 12 & 13, spinning cars, boobs that can go up and down, and games with non-existent collisions (yeah, we’re talking about the legendary ‘Big Rigs’ game)."

Lol that Saints Row 3 one :p -- Damn now I feel like playing the game again..

bayport4963d ago (Edited 4963d ago )

Lol the Skate 3 vid looked more like a Garry's Mod vid

Lol @ one of the youtube comments

"Go home Physics, you're drunk"

PS3Freak4963d ago

I used to play a lot of Skate 3, so watching that entire video made me cry laughing.

SolidStoner4963d ago

I never played football games, I didn't know they are so gay!

knowyourstuff4963d ago

When game physics go wrong?

More like when game physics go *right* lol

ado9084963d ago

Idk why you got 7 disagree's. Although I thought the skating vid was funny especially when the guy fixes the bench and puts it back in place and another guy runs into it and knocks the bench and him over

Myst4963d ago

Meh doesn't worry me much anymore. People disagree just to do so, to rile people's nerves or something else. I've come to expect it

*shrugs*

Snookies124964d ago

LOL! That freaking Skate 3 video collection was just amazing... I want that game now...

Myst4964d ago

Lmfao I just saw it and I haven't laughed that hard in a while my eyes are watery.

Relientk774963d ago

Skate 3 looks fun haha

like all those clips were great

no_more_heroes4964d ago

LOLOL THAT was the funniest thing I've ever seen!!! Especially the Skate 3 compilation!!!

wastedcells4964d ago (Edited 4964d ago )

That was good times. Laughed so hard it made me want to search for more.

Sp1d3ynut4963d ago

I don't know that it's truly a bug....it is a Japanese game, after all. ;)

EA dodges accusations of FIFA 12/13 Wii being the same game

Go Nintendo - When EA was contacted about FIFA 12 being largely repackaged as FIFA 13 for Wii, here's what a rep had to say.

Go Nintendo seems to be scratching for news here. Sure, it probably is the same game, but what do you expect with Wii?

badz1494986d ago

this has been going on the PSP for so long! why complain now? it's no surprise that EA is not going to invest too much for a console that is in its way out and Wii versions are always just like the PS2 and PSP versions - cheap money grabbing ports! for FIFA, the money is always on 360 and PS3 since 2008!

I'm not defending EA here but that's what happen when even Nintendo has abandoned the Wii now!

dark-hollow4986d ago (Edited 4986d ago )

The problem is how much they ask for it.

$20-$40 is steep for this lazy repackaging and they take advantage of the ignorance of those who buy it.

if you don't want to invest in a dying system then don't bother at all, but don't rip off those who's still game on these systems and expect nobody to complain.

TheColbertinator4986d ago

lol EA repackaging old games into the new version each year?

Wait until the Madden fans find out...oh wait nevermind.

GillHarrison4986d ago

They literally mean the same game, with just updated rosters and logos. No other changes whatsoever.

TheColbertinator4986d ago

EA strikes again.

EA 18 - Gamers 0

profgerbik4986d ago (Edited 4986d ago )

Wow EA and here I actually gave you a little credit for Fifa 13.

Now I feel stupid. How are companies able to just rob people like this? Actually getting away with it being caught red handed also?

Can someone sue these basterds already, charging for online to play in old games, now this? Is this not enough proof they are greedy as shit?

Or am I missing something here?

wastedcells4986d ago

They probably don't even sell enough copies on wii to justify any major effort. They just release it with an updated roster for those who missed last years or new comers.

FIFA 13: 8 FIFA 12 Star Players You Should Consider Again

WC - Now that EA Sports have released this year’s addition to the FIFA franchise – and picked up a five star review from us in response – it’s time to get under the skin of FIFA 13, and cater to those players who will have already began to log some serious hours not only in online play against friends, but also in Career Mode and building their Ultimate Team from the ground up. And that means looking a lot closer at the players in the game, and at EA Sports’ ratings decisions.
