EA is showing the 3DS power with FIFA 12.

Looks like my old fifa 2001

I've got news for you. America is not the world. Some of you would do well to learn that little lesson. And the U.S. is not the largest gaming market in that world either.

That is because its most populated developed country. Football is the most popular sport in the World and those 3DS screens look nice.

And no PS2 graphics don't look nice.

I was simply pointing out that soccer as a whole doesn't appeal to the world's largest gaming market (the U.S.). I know it's popular in the world but for gaming it's another story.

And no PS2 graphics don't look nice.

Last time I checked FIFA games have sold more than Madden games, and Madden is older than FIFA. Even in videogames Football > American Football.

If you say so...:roll:

If this has no online play, epic fail.

You know, System Wars people are really the hipsters of the video game industry...

If it's a Nintendo game...*SCOFF* "I loved Nintendo before they sold out. Now they just have gimmicks and bad graphics" (while ignoring all the great stuff)

If it's a sports game...*SCOFF* "I don't play sports games. I play obscure import JRPGs. You've probably never heard of them..."

the 3DS shots look pretty good to me, the wii on the other hand, i dont know really even know

looks like a ps2 game. Fifa graphics have moved so far past that, why would we want to go backAndrovinus

Because it's a handheld, and handhelds are always two generations behind aren't they? And the pictures shown clearly look better on the 3DS over the PS2.

Wonder what EA could pull off next year.

Those 3DS shots look okay. Not great, not awful, but okay.

This is precisely the kind of game that I don't understand why you'd want on a handheld, though. Even the Vita version will look inferior to the Xbox 360 and PS3 versions (and may play worse, too). And a soccer match isn't exactly the kind of thing you can complete in bite-sized pieces; isn't each match at least 15 or 20 minutes long? I guess that's not too long, but portability is really the only advantage of putting a game like this on a handheld (whose battery life is only 3-5 hours anyway -- I'm talking about 3DS and Vita).

I guess I'm asking, is anyone even planning to get this on a handheld?

Pics removed

And i could say the same bout NFL,NHL,MLB ever seen a celebration and when the players come off after a play drive in an NFL? all sports are like that to an extent.

Tbh though the namby pamby attitude of the other premier leagues aint echoed at all in the Scottish premier leagues, crowds chant abuse at players like that half the time especially the higher teams and a couple of their notorious divers.

But your arguements bout as strong as a wet paper bag.

[QUOTE="Chemical_Viking"]

[QUOTE="KC_Hokie"]I don't either. I was just joking around. Apparently people take soccer very seriously. KC_Hokie

You're kidding! Really? People take the most popular sport on the planet seriously? Get out of here!

Seriously, you've derailed this thread with your petty ignorance.

But I was just joking from the start. The reactions were rather priceless.

what i find hillarious is Fifa tends to sell roughly 15 million which is more than any other EA sports franchise a year these days and yet you write it off with but the US doesnt like it..what a load of tripe.

[QUOTE="Arach666"]

[QUOTE="KC_Hokie"]You know...it's soccer.

KC_Hokie

Yeah,I know,the biggest sport in the world and the best selling EA sports game.

Yeah but just look at American Football.

Mr. Tight Ends, WIDE Receivers, TAIL backs....yeah cute position names and cute tight uniforms, especially receivers and hulking running backs running down the field..............and they ALL wear Helmets as oppose to Rugby players :lol:

And this is coming from an NFL fan (Go J-e-t-s) myself.

not bad for 3ds

[QUOTE="blacktorn"]I don't think Nintendo platforms are the best for EA's Sport franchises to be honest, just a guess but i think they sell the worst on nintendo platforms vs microsoft or sony's,but i guess still make a profit or else they wouldn't bother to develop and release them. But when i look at fifa on the wii or the DS,they are just so much inferior to there 360/ps3/psp counterparts that i wonder why someone would buy those particular franchises on nintendo platforms...nintendoboy16

tbh when you play Fifa on the wii its like taking at least 3 steps back.Compared to the hd twins/pc versions which are much more robust football games with lots of improvement it shows that the wii iteration is running off PS2 builds and it clearly shows they aint to bothered bout the wii either.

It consistently is rated lower aswell despite touting a five a side, it is slated for its sluggish controls and inconsistancy on the wii.

I'll take fifa and an hd console any day considering how much better they are from a graphical and control standpoint.

gotta be honest i absolutely love how serious EA vancouver have been taking their sports games the past few years..Now if only the same could be said for Tiburon :P

It looks ok, I don't think it's as good as PS2 versions though.

Also for those talking about the Wii version, it does look awful but EA intentionally made the game cartoony so it'd be different to the other games. This is what Football games on the Wii can look like, not amazing by any means but certainly not as bad as FIFA on the Wii.fabz_95

They look fairly decent...but honestly, who wants to play a Soccer game (or any sport for that matter) in a handheld :?

they didn't make it look cartoony so it can look different... the Wii just uses outdated hardware.

rasengan2552

Even if the hardware is dated, sport games can look much better on Wii, EA is just being lazy.

Vita version will destroy that even if it going to be FIFA 13;)
