Has anyone ordered FIFA 12 from zavvi if so have you been sent an email about it being dispatched yet, if so has it given you a date?

currently re-playing Perfect Dark on N64 - i had forgotten just how great the soundtrack to this game is - especially the Chicago Stealth level which is very Blade Runner.

Never played the one for the 360 - was it as pants as what some people say?

Finished Gears 3 a few days back. Brilliant. It's games like that, with great stories and brilliant cut-scenes that make me think that games can be equal to movies, if not better. There are people who will still deride gamers, but these are probably dead-heads who watch soaps

Anybody who plays Rugby League Live - visit the League Games Station for some online competitions. Both for Xbox and PS3.

It was horrific. One of the worst, most unresponsive games I've ever played. I assume it wasn't by the same developer as the original.

Just been playing fifa 12 on the pc. Very hard to get used to it. The defending element has changed a ridiculous amount. but it is a lot more realistic in some ways. Just frustrating as hell. Very hard to get the ball back once you lose it as well.

Still looking forward to getting it on the 360 though, Should be awesome as ever on live!.

I think the origanal RARE team was broken up - not sure why but i seem to remember some kind of split either before or just after Perfect Dark was released on the N64.

Hopefully one day we will see another superb Perfect Dark game!

IIRC members of the origanal RARE team went on to develop a game called Time Splitters.

Seems EA have messed up FIFA's career mode again this year. After players not developing last year, it seems it's the other way now.

It now appears that the CPU teams develop so fast that by year 2 every player in the league would be an 80+ and by year 4 almost all CPU players have pace 99 and acceleration 99.

It's becoming as bad as Football Manager now.

No surprise there. I'm sure all of the other heralded 'changes' will fail epically too.

Got another 2500 coins on the FUT site today. Cheers.

I twitter messaged them and they said they'd forgotten to put player's potential in properly and that it'll be sorted ultra quick. Last year it took 9 months so hopefully it'll be 8 at most this time.

FIFA 12 is so realistic, just tried to bring Carlos Tevez on and he told me to fook off!
