The FIFA series has been a disapointing one for those who love the african game.

It is my view that an adition of at least 4 more african teams in addition to the one's found in the current edition of the FIFA football series is necessary, these teams should come preferably from the four corners of africa i.e. North East West and South.

Teams I wish to be included from east and north africa are:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Egypt - North
Kenya/Rwanda - East

This is Football 2004 has Zimbabwe national team:o :hump:

Is Henry really Kenyan? Like in his blood?

Outside of Africa, African teams aren't very popular. The leagues tend to be somewhat amateurish too.

were there any african teams in 2004? i cant remember

I'm fairly sure national teams like Cameroon are in it...

its unfortunate that african clubs get the shaft in FIFAs but they go after clubs that are either popular or cheap to put in

Sorry, but Nigeria, Cameroon, Senegal and Tunisia will be the only African teams in 2005.

And South Africa

Nope, afraid not.

Why not? There are top 5 Africa teams which made it to the WC 2002

fifa is a club team game.. not a national team game

Sorry, no idea. It was probably a licensing problem. Like with Holland, Wales et al, in FIFA 2004.

I don't understand, does this mean you work for EA?

If its a club game, then they sould include the africa champions league.

But I still insist that they should put african teams as most of the top teams in europe have players of african origin and that is why they are where they are now.

African leagues aren't amaeturish they are just as proffesional as the one's in asia, just less money and hence less exposure.
So again I say....

VIVA AFRICA

We need more african teams .http://www.rfi.fr/imagesrfi/foot2004/joueurs/kenya/denis_oliech.jpg

The real reason that not many African teams are not in the game is to do with marketing. EA are not going to sell many games in Africa and because the league isn't that good there isn't much interest in African teams outside Africa they are better to make the other teams from countries where there are high numbers of sales even better as it will increase the amount of copies they sell in those countries.

Eagle Winged was right, no South Africa.:( But there is Holland though.
