    Are "FOOTBALL" and "SOCCER" different?

    :) Thank you. At any rate, someone more eloquent than myself expressed my feelings on the whole thing extremely well here. That said, I would rather talk about soccer than international issues, so maybe I'll just add that to my sig or something. :D

    Are "FOOTBALL" and "SOCCER" different?

    On that note, I feel the need to chime in on the American bashing. Now, I am disgusted with American culture much more than any American should be, but I have reasons. Blindly bashing America is just as bad as blindly supporting it. Insulting American sports is just in bad taste. There...

    FIFA is going nowhere

    They completely reworked the physics engine when they made FIFA 2003. When a developer does that, there are bound to be a couple of nagging bugs. The only one that drives me nuts is that one where when your player misses a pass, everyone waits for him to get it. Seriously though, the new engine...

    Are "FOOTBALL" and "SOCCER" different?

    Its just a word. Freakin' hooligans. PS There is no difference between European and North American versions of FIFA, except maybe languages.

    Xbox version...headers!?

    After playing some more FIFA 2003, I think I have some relevant information to this 'no alone header'. When the ball approaches your player and you press the appropriate button, the player gets in position (moves) to do the proper move. So, when your player is being pressured and the ball...

    Volleys and Headers

    Usually pressing the 'shoot' button (or so enigma told me) will make your player execute an ambitious diving header or other move instead of a playful lob into the goal.

    Xbox version...headers!?

    Ah yes, missed that part :o I have done it myself somehow though... but maybe an opponent was close enough for it to work.

    Someone Help Me From The Awful Donavon Cover

    Haha, quite the flamewar, seriously though, we all know Football rules, which is why we are on this forum. But c'mon saying something like "American Football requires no skill" is just a rather abrasive way of saying "I don't like it." I personally enjoy American Football (even though the...

    Xbox version...headers!?

    Of course you can do headers... it just works differently from the previous FIFAs... It tells you in the manual (through pass - 'y' button). http://www.fifa2003.com/tipsandtricks/ will tell you how to do it successfully. To sum it up, you have to tap the 'y' button rapidly while holding...

    Why Soccergaming doesn't allow us to talk about warez downloads of fifa games

    LOL the mods added a nice link to the end of his post. Probably banned in one post too. New record?

    fifa 2003 UK v. US version

    Its a complete marketing decision. I was going to ask if FIFA in Europe had the same cover until I saw this thread. Donovan is the best player in Major League Soccer, which is the only U.S. league. Also he was the best player on the U.S. team. Hence, the 20% (its a total guesstimate) of the...

    Does everyone play with the Tele cam?

    I have to turn the difficulty down if I use anything but tele cam.

    FIFA 2003 XBox

    You are right. It says so in the FIFA 2003 game manual. The right analog stick on the x-box version (the one I have) works just like the right anolog stick in the PS2 version. The L2 and R2 buttons on the PS2 version (so I'm told) are basically a shortcut for pressing the right thumbstick at...
