I wouldn't trust Eurogamer. They hate PCs. Always had.

Last year it was the same story... Wait for E3 ;)

"The game-changing new Player Impact Engine will drive FIFA 12 on the PlayStation 3 computer entertainment system and Xbox 360 videogame and entertainment system." - http://www.ea.com/soccer/
They are not mentioning PC... EA is such a b*tch!

It's the same story as last year. Lesson learnt from previous year when they kept PC news to minimum. Then Ian suddenly popped out of nowhere and bang ;).

Patience is virtue when we're dealing with EA Sports. Believe me. I was the same last year. Skeptical whether we would really get NG gameplay on PC or not. The first news about PC version... Came on E3.

I will say this, there is v. high probability that Impact Engine and other stuff from consoles will be available on PCs too. At least I can trust one magazine (Outsider87 probably knows about it too) CD-Action. ;)

Yea, mate, I hope that will end like this... They will make us goo crazy without news for PC and then it would be BANG!!! - FIFA 12 XBOX/PS3 = PC.
But NG on PC was 1 year after it was on console... Right?

Actually no. NG on consoles for good started with FIFA 09. FIFA 08 was reusing old stuff apparently with mixed new elements in it.

But true NG era began with 09. You can feel PC was left out from NG engine for 2 years (engine optimizing, porting to PC, etc.) and well, not that I will be an ass and say I don't enjoy it, but optimization on some machines was bad. The game can drop frames from 60 to 15 all of the sudden and then again it jumps to steady 60. I don't know what causes this phenomenon. Also the promised WC elements didn't make it into FIFA 11 on PC. You can see we still have old penalty kick system, old set pieces, old pitches.

Those are minor issues mind you, most of fixed by CEP11, Hybrid gameplay and playing around with data0 files. This game blown me away after 1 year. I hope FIFA12 improves over it :D.
