FIFA '98
is losing percentage in the voting booth. I still don't see why people
liked World Cup. It was a nice game, but exactly the same as FIFA '98.
Help keep the legend alive! Serve your country! Vote for FIFA '98 !
I won't put the wwwBoard
up until I see that people have anything to say about the game, besides
pleading for their league.
EA released a couple
of '99 series games. Why the hell don't they release FIFA? I hardly
foresee any ground breaking developments in gameplay. Will releasing a
pre-alpha demo hurt sales?! Give us something to play with!
It's math time. Sorry
kids. FIFA '98 had 172 teams and 40,000 voices. That's approx 232 voice
samples per team. FIFA '99 will have 250 teams and 50,000. That's
200 voice samples per team! This means that we will probably have less
in-game play-by-play samples! Thanks EA! I was getting tired of VARIETY.
Another approach : No. of teams increased by 45% whereas the total amount
of voice sample increased by only 25%. NICE. Is it just me or is this the
only website with a negative approach to FIFA '99? |

I have
created the news archive for easy browsing of old news. To go there click
here, or scroll down and press the 'Go to archive'
link. Also added another FIFA '99 link.
If you have any recommended
games to download, send 'em in!
Did you notice the
votes? I was shocked anyone voted for FIFA '97. FIFA '95 was pretty cool,
but after you realized you can score from mid field, things got kinda boring.
No surprises at number one : FIFA '98. If you haven't voted, do it now!
Mark your favorite FIFA game and press vote. |

 Fifa
'99 Online has just released a photo
scan of what will
be the FIFA '99 box.
Kinda expected a little
more from a gillion
dollar comany. Click
on it to see the big pic.
I've updated the recommended
game. This one should last at least a month. A really great download. |
