Could someone please explain me why half of the players have no names?
I paid for the game actually and there should've been a note on the cover.
The entire Dutch team has players named "No #1"!!
And when did Africa disappear from the Earth?

The game itself seems better than 98 edition. But it should've been completed before release.

The Netherlands, we don't know...Why are the players given numbers, not names? Everyone is as puzzled as you are

dont forget they left out Oceania as well ... 2002 sucks ! they should have thought about pleasing the loyal buyers . Plus in "other teams" they left out Senegal who have qualified for the world cup thus no Real world cup patches ..... thank goodness for those talented patch makers out there

they can't put the name of the players because they dont have the copyright/permission to use them =)

OIC. So EA didn't get that one :D

I agree about Africa. But Oceania? Which teams? There aren't any important ones excepts for Australia, so I understand that they did't put it. Plus if they would, the teams had just PLAYER#x instead of real names.

EA doesn't want to be associate with drug users so no Dutch National Team.

I wouldn't be so sure.
Don't you think that too many playaz had Nandrolone in their blood? Maybe it's just "dutch" thing. I don't think that they took anything
