Page 1 of Fifa 08 release date ?
Gaming and Consoles Forum
I`m after Fifa 08 on PS3 as soon as for my boys birthday.
Are there any online retailers who send out prior to "official" release dates ? If they are cheap as well it would be a double bonus !!
Thanks a lot,
Rich.
Usually iy you order at GAME you`ll get in on day of release or maybe a day before if your lucky. I know the 360 version is out this Friday.
Ordered from Game :) ,
Cheers mate,

RE: Fifa 08 release date ?
Got my Wii version today from play.com. Fantastic! Works really well on the Wii. Recommended. :D
I got this on a preprder from shopto yesterday for the 360 and i love it, its nothing like the demo i can actualy win games. Though that`s probably because im playing it on amature ;)
After playing the demo i was a bit diserpointed but orderd it any way thinking i would trade it in for Pro Evo if i didnt like it. FIFA 07 last year was pants imo and pro evo 6 was much better for me but this year its FIFA all the way.
Absolutely loving the Wii edition so far. The feel of the ball and the movement has been greatly improved since last years version, and the shots really pack a fair old wallop now. Thank God, I hated the fluffy shooting of the old FIFA`s. I`ve now got sufficiently good with the controls to be able to move the camera back to a more traditional side view, and it still works beautifully. Bloody great fun!
The only disappointments so far are the criminal exclusion of the career mode, and what seems to be a lack of a widescreen mode. It seems to start up in W/S, but the actual game I swear is in 4:3. It could be my eyes I suppose, but I`ve checked my Wii setting and all is as it should be. There`s no setting for display ratio in the FIFA menus, so I just don`t know what to do.
Still, really pleased overall. It`s way better than that horrible PC demo thankfully.
I`ve stuck with PES for the last few titles, but purely due to the fact that Fifa allows me to select teams outside of the top leagues, I thought I`d give it a bash this time. A question though on the button configuration for the 360: can you assign your own moves to each button? On the demo it allows for an `almost` PES set up using the presets, save for the sprint being RT and not RB.
Basically, I`ll still buy the new PES release, so I want to keep the button config uniform, so I can switch betwen titles with ease.
Live a life you love, use a god you trust, and don`t take it all too seriously
Ignore my comments about the Wii widescreen mode. It is in widescreen. It`s just me. Take no notice of me. I set it to 4:3 to see if there was a difference, and trust me there was. Set it back to 16:9 and it`s clearly proper widescreen. It just looked a bit strange to me, and not like a proper W/S picture. You`ll see what I mean if you get it.
Sorry!
