    2 issues I'd love changed in a patch

    The two main issues I would love to see changed in a patch would be: 1. Make the CPU team management better rotate it's starting eleven instead of playing the same 11 always. 2. Make teams with no licensed stadiums use something other than that Estadia Des Artes..or whatever it's called.

    Winning Headers

    Hold down LT and then move your player using the L stick towards your opponent.

    Winning Headers

    The jostle function works well as you can get into a better position to head the ball. But, if the opponent has better upper body strength and heading ability then they have a better chance of winning the jostle. As in real life it's a battle for the ball.

    Do you guys play online or offline gameplay more? [Xbox 360]

    I play offline more but the CPU team management (no squad rotation) is really annoying and makes the game way too easy since you just end up playing against almost exhausted players from the early season onwards.

    Opponents fatigue

    I've searched all over the net in various forums and cannot find anyone else who has noticed this really obvious issue with the CPU management of their teams in Owner mode. I just played my 5th game of the season against Derby county and every single one of their players were completely...

    Best Stadiums?

    What do ppl think is the best stadium in the 360 version of FIFA 08?

    Opponents fatigue

    You can check it from the player stats menu. This will give the stats for every player from every team playing in your league. You'll notice that for all the CPU teams it's usually the top starting 11 that are playing almost all the games. The other 8-9 players after that get some games but...

    stadiums in next gen 08....

    I agree it's totally ridculous that English cup finals are always played at the home ground of one of the finalists. That's what you get when you have a Canadian company making football videogames....now NHL 08 on the other hand...WOW great game and all the arenas are perfect for each...

    Opponents fatigue

    So does energy not really have any effect on your team then? I just checked and most of the CPU teams seem to play their first 11 almost exclusively and play maybe about 8-9 other players as substitutes. So basically their first XI must get completely worn out as I can see when I look at...

    Compared to UEFA CL or Fifa 2007

    In my Manager mode the CPU doesn't seem to take into account how fit/energy a player is when picking the team, it always just seems to default to using the first XI always no matter if a player is exhausted from playing too many games or not.

    Opponents fatigue

    The funny thing is that the commentator starts saying almost immediately at the start of the match that he's not sure how much longer the player will last since he's so exhausted.

    Opponents fatigue

    Yes, if my players are fatigued then I will bring in someone to replace them for that game. The CPU doesn't seem to replace tired players with fresh players so every game I play against the CPU from game 9-10 onwards in my season, the players are starting almost exhausted. Not much...

    Opponents fatigue

    I've played about 5 games into my firt season and I'm noticing that all the players on the opponents team seem to start the game with almost 10% energy whereas my players are beginning with 100%. Is the CPU not changing the first team to put in fit players or is this just a bug?

    Qualifying for ECC

    There are two competitions, the equivalent of the champions League and the UEFA cup. I just simmed through an entire Scottish Premier League last night and the winner (Celtic) qualified for the Champions League whereas the runners ups (Rangers, Hearts, Aberdeen) all qualifieid for the UEFA Cup.

    Qualifying for ECC

    In the owner mode, which leagues can you not qualify for the ECC from? I'm assuming that the top leagues are fine, such as the English, Italian, Spanish, German leagues. From reading some other forums/posts it appears that even winning the Norwegian league will not mean you play in the ECC...

    EUROGAMER Xbox 360 REVIEW

    When I first tried playing PES I really struggled to score but eventually I learned how to build up a good attack to get into great scoring positions to give me the best chance to score. As long as the game rewards you for creating good scoring oppertunities by increasing the chance of the...

    Strategic Substitutes

    ok. I missed out on playing FIFA 07 because of the so-so reviews it got last year so it's good to hear that at least they do make non-injury subs, even if it's only at certain periods of the game. Maybe this is slightly realistic then since for the most part I think you'd find most managers...

    Strategic Substitutes

    One of the big omissions from previous FIFA games that initially caused me to move to PES was no substitutions being made by the CPU unless it was for an injured player. In PES the CPU will make subs either for injured players, exhausted players, or for tactical reasons. I'm not sure what the...
