EA Football World site launches
A few days ago EA Sports launched the EA Football World website. If you have already registered on EA Sports World then the same log-in will access Football World. Normally I wouldn't take much interest in a site that is dedicated to soccer games (right now it is used solely for UEFA 2008). However it actually provides a look at some of what the Sports World website will offer when it relaunches this summer. Immediately noticeable improvements include the removal of heavy flash elements whi...

NCAA Football player model comparison
With the release of two new screenshots from NCAA Football 09 came a description of how some of the character models have been improved. Some people have noticed differences while others have stated that they look the same. There was a huge upgrade from 07 to 08 and because of that this year the adjustments are going to be a little more subtle. The exception might be the lineman who they've apparently worked on a great deal. So using EA Sports World I went into 08 and took some screens...

FIFA 08: Impressions and Be a Pro video
I've been able to spend a little time with FIFA 08 in order to collect some impressions along with recording an entire game from the new Be A Pro mode. For an in-depth look at FIFA 08 I'd highly recommend you check out the article posted by Shawn at 5w-g by clicking here. A couple quick notes regarding online play. All the games I played have been completely lag-free with a constant frame rate so that was good to see. Interestingly there is no indicator shown above the player that your...

EA Sports World website reemerges
EASportsWorld.com is apparently now operating with full functionality for all titles including Tiger Woods 08, Madden 08, and NCAA Football 08. I have been unable to see if everything is working properly since the site was announced to have returned earlier this morning. Feel free to leave any comments about whether or not everything is up and running and functioning as intended. Hopefully this represents the beginning of the end to the problems that have plagued the site since it laun...
