its cool that they brought back some of the speed to the game. last year it felt like none of the players really had any skill like they were really slow with their moves but it was still fun i was playin it like 5 mins ago. 09 has amazing graphics especially at night. i like the 4 season be a pro. i hope the cpu will attempt to get u mor involved in the game

March Madness is a November release, FIFA is October. I know there will be a community event for it but no dates have been settled on. As to first information its a good question cause this is the first year where it has no competition. They’ll want to come out and do what they can to sway the College Hoops fans. Its tough though getting around all the NCAA and Madden attention that comes this time of year. So maybe late next month or so would be my guess to hear the first things about it.

Pasta when will you have info on March Madness 09? I figure it should be soon since Fifa info is here and they come out at similar times. Just let me know?

yes they do have the MLS license but the fact that there are so many teams it’s hard to include all the stadiums. but you are right anyway, there are probably only 30 something stadiums in the game at most. i would expect there to be at least 100 since they do it in college basketball and college football. maybe if the game started selling more in the u.s. and there was more interest for soccer in general, they would put in the stadiums.

I’d like to be able to play goalkeeper, like in the NHL series. I’ve not heard any mention of it anywhere, but still it’d be cool.

i am pretty sure that i played FIFA 08 more than any other game this year…its MEGA-addictive…but it also didn’t help that Madden terrible this year (my usual game of choice)…though i am still excited to see if EA is able to improve on last years game of FIFA…
