So I bought FIFA 10 yesterday. Oh boy... Now I remember how much I played FIFA 08. FIFA games don't stop, and with the new Be a Pro and Manager features I'll be playing this game a lot.
I decided to skip FIFA 09 since I thought it would be better to "save it", and I'm glad I did. FIFA 10 is so much more awesome than FIFA 08. More streamlined gameplay, more stuff to do... And the achievements are much better this time around, which of course is important to me. 50 000 gamerscore soon, by the way.
All the EA site stuff from FIFA 08 has apparently carried over, so you can check out my profile here. I have some FIFA 08 and FIFA 10 videos uploaded. Still trying to get a gameface, but apparently the GameFace creator is extremely overloaded from the 1.7 million people who bought FIFA 10 last week and won't let me. I named my Be a Pro character Benny and he's playing as an ST for Real Madrid. Quite a nice start of your career, I would say. I'm playing with Real Madrid in Manager Mode and upgrading my character by doing "accomplishments", which is a form of in-game achievements that grant stat upgrades and some traits. I really love that, and you start as a half-decent character (70). Benny is a bit slow, so having him in the front of crazy fast people like C. Ronaldo is kinda weird, but it's getting there.
Funny thing is, I really don't pay attention to football in real life...
