In influencing the decisions for FIFA 2005, these threads probably are useless. Always that slightest chance that an EA rep reads the post and pushes an idea for 2006 though.
But it allows FIFA gamers to express their frustration. Every year I buy FIFA and see the full leagues of Sweden, Denmark, Norway, Austria and Switzerland. Yet no Greece, Turkey or Czech Repbulic leagues, which UEFA recognize as being of a higher standard than those previously mentioned.
I assume it's a commercial decision, but how many Scandanavian gamers are there?! And aren't most of them Man U and Liverpool fans anyway?!
There are 70 million Turks, which doesn't include those who've migrated throughout Europe (eg. Germany), yet they can't get their own league in FIFA?! It seems totally wrong when you consider the strength of Turkish football (I'm not suggesting population alone be the criteria, otherwise we'd get the Indian first division in 2006). It makes me wonder if there's a bias against Eastern European football by the FIFA producers.
My hope is that Turkish, Greek and Czech gamers will get their message across to EA.
