... and I agree.

I've been MASSIVELY disappointed by FIFA after RTWC 98 with the only bright light in the dark being the wonderful FIFA 2002 and WC 2002. The last two games have been utter CRAP. I played FIFA 2003 for like a week on a borrowed X-Box and if it wasn't for the fact that it was fun playing with friends, I would not have bothered. The game was a mess, passes and shots would register like 2 seconds after pressing the button, the players - which in RL are supposed to turn on a dime - would keep running like 5 meters after I told them to move in another direction, stealing the ball almost seemed like an automatic process rather than the hard, physical hits in the past. In short the game was reduced to running up or down the field hoping the other player would mess up with the controls worse than you would and hopefully hitting the shoot button before the goalie would lunge at you.

And FIFA 2004 was even worse, at least in 2003 some shots went IN ;)

I still enjoy World Cup 2002, it's wonderfully fun but here another of EA's talents is apparent: their utter lack of care for giving their games replay value. No goddamn randomizing feature???? gimme a f***ing break, every time I play the game I have to play against the SAME teams in the SAME groups. It gets boring. No custom team/player editing? Great way to constantly remind me why the hell ISRAEL is in the game and not the Netherlands...

...and the worse part... I CAN'T DELETE MY OWN SAVES???????????????

Sorry EA, but I just about had it. It is apparent that you don't give a damn about making your games better, just finding suckers to buy them. I'm glad Konami is finally entering the PC market, despite the fact I haven't played any of their games, I'm hoping to get my hands on them soon, even if they don't have any licensed players.

So, when did the FIFA series die out? I'd say it's been going downhill since '99 as both 2000 and 2001 were crap. The series was briskly given a boost with 2002 and WC 2002 but the last two have been utterly atrocious and it looks like 2005 will be no better.

R.I.P. FIFA, it was good to have known you ;)

FANTASTIC!!!!
