BLOG: My FIFA08 PS3 career
by Tim Staes
As a 31 year old unknown and inexperienced manager I decided to look for a lower league team to start my managing career. My choice fell on Accrington Stanley, “the world’s most famous little club” somewhere at the bottom of the Football League 2.
And the UEFA EURO 2008 trophy goes to… Portugal! EA SPORTS today declared the winner of UEFA EURO 2008™. Using the simulation engine in the UEFA EURO 2008™ videogame, EA SPORTS was able to test all 16 teams in the competition and determine that Portugal would come out on top. UEFA EURO 2008, the officially licensed videogame of the tournament, also predicted the following placements:
All 16 competing nations at UEFA EURO 2008™ have submitted their finalised 23-man squad lists to UEFA. These rosters will also be available for UEFA Euro 2008 for Playstation 3 and Xbox 360 in the beginning of June. FIFA Informer has spoken to Bruno Amata from the FIFA Data Collection Group in Vancouver.
With UEFA EURO 2008 now available in stores throughout Europe, gamers can log on at www.easportsfootball.com to track their results against rivals from around the world in the Battle of the Nations online game mode in UEFA EURO 2008.
The event starts with some extremely bad news; the UEFA Euro 08 producers Simon Humber (Next Generation) and Matt Holme (Current Generation) got stranded in England and couldn´t make it over to the community event in Cologne. It was snowing in England ... so almost all flights got cancelled from winter wonderland.
FIFA Informer has spoken to the Database team Lead Producer; Michael Müller-Möhring. He will soon return to his beloved Cologne after 3 years in Vancouver. He will still be in charge of the players and teams database in the game from EAs office in Germany.
Today we have the first 5 screenshots of FIFA Manager 09 for you. In addition we have now available a first fact sheet with many additional news about the game.
FIFA Informer talks to the new FIFA NG (next generation) Lead Producer; David Rutter. He left the home of football; England this summer and moved to the hockey nation; Canada. Formerly in charge of the Championship Manager series at the Beautiful Game Studios he has now joined Electronic Arts to improve the FIFA-series on Playstation 3 and Xbox 360.
Yesterday, HEXUS.gaming attended an EA event for the upcoming football title, UEFA Euro 2008 in which we had a chance to play the game in some depth and sit down with lead producer, Simon Humber to ask him some probing questions.
