I think that it would be an exelent idea to put the chile and the argentina leagues because they have the face of south america futbol!!
-make the goalers harder to score on, cuz sometimes the goals are dissapointing
-add holland in the international teams
-make the players shoes better
- fans more lively
I think if 2 players on opposite teams have really high aggression e.g. 80+. they could fight in a match after a really bad tackle possibly getttin' them sent off! That would be quality mate!!!
Ezequiel Rodriguez
you should add cups like the gold cup and you should be able to choose cleats not the fake ones but adidas nike lotto etc
And yes!!! how about a "Zinedine Zidane" unlockable - 10,000 points and get Zidane back for france and real madrid
Fifa 07 had good graphics...no doubt about that...but i think the players in the PES series are more animated and lively...anyway...here are the ideas for fifa 08 :
1) Show the expressions of the manager - With trademark expressions of the extraordinarily famous ones like Sir Alex Ferguson, Capello and Jose Mourinho...
2)Let's admit it...the crowd in fifa 07 was terrible...i think they should be seen with banners and scarves etc. and could also be shown asking for autographs after the players head back to the dressing room after an important win..
3)The celebrations!! it's really annoying to see Steven Gerrard perform the Klinsmann dive so often...I say it should be only done when he scores from more that 35 metres and should be accompanied with some commentary like "This strike is special for Steven Gerrard!"...and talking about commentary i think it was really good in fifa 07...but i think you can kind of diversify it a bit and the commentator should also say the name of the scorer after he scores a goal...
4)Quick freekicks...quickly score before the defenders blinks can move a muscle!
i would also say a mascot and a warmup before the game
better crowd graphics i could do better
fan mode drive to the game look at the programe take your seat and watch create a stadium would be good
jugón
EA SPORTS hve to included more real faces...sevilla FC players,for example.now is the best team in europe,and i think this is a good reason.
AND MORE LEAGUES!!!J-LEAGUE from japan is much better than the corean one.this league is more exciting than chiliean,chinese,russian or australian leagues...includes denmark,norway or swedish..THIS LEAGUES ARE A S***!!!
PLEASE includes japanese and argentinian league.i think this game have to has the best league of each continent...ARGENTINA in SOUTH AMERICA an J-LEAGUE in ASIA.
thanks
+add refferee mode control the game
+have a camera angle where you are seing through the players eyes
+substitutes on practice mode and add more players
+fights in old firm matches
+fans chant one of the teams songs
+unlimeted edit playes i had a message saying i had ran out of edits
+Ibrox and celtic park stadium
+Lower divisions SPL scotland are a country to you know not just england
+Netherlands on international why is there not the dutch
+coice of commentators not these rubbish ones evry year
+world cup,champions league,uefa cup
+more skills
all the fifa games are not realistic, everyone hates that we cannot hit goals if we are behind the half line. you all may have seen the top class players xabi alonso, beckham, etc are praised for that and remembered .
it should have a new option for players, shot accuracy behind half line. all the gamers will leave PES and start coming back to fifa
since.. its in the game
my ideas are, better crowd graphics, maybe replays of the crowds which can be fullyu customisable!?

more things happening such as mascots, pre season warmup, maybe with a mini game b4 a match?

player to atleast look like the realy players, i mean, birmingham city player look nothing like them!!??

stadiums for each team!!!!

hear the players taling in replays, shouting etc,

A GODDAM REFFEREE WOULD BE NICE!!!! NOT JUST IN CUTSCENES, ACTUALLY RUNNIG AROUND!

hmmm, thats mostly it, just overall better quality of the game 2 be honest.

you should be able to choose your celebrations etc, angry at cards!!

facial exprressions.
have the cahmpionship teams on there

thats it really
Longer Manager Mode.
you should try to include when the 2 teams are on the beginning of the match they should shake hands, the team picture and the coin toss It will be more realistic game thank you for your time
Darren Martin
when will fifa 08 be released on the PS3?
Make the hardest level MUCH harder... I think it would be a great idea to have a "FIFA all times" where you could be old players like Maradona, Puaskas and Pele in their time. like a BIG FIFA with FIFA 1965 all the way up to FIFA 08...
I would like to see more latin american leagues and teams, argentinian league, brazilian, league, etc. In the international mode it would be great if you include all countries around the world like "Road to Fifa World Cup 98" that game was amazing, I don´t Konw why you changed the game and why you don't include all countries now.
Another great thing could be that in career mode you could manage all the club, not just the first team, like in Total Club Manager you can manage all the teams, the first team, the second team, juveniles etc. I mean not just look the progress but playing with those teams too, and making them great.
Another thing you can put on Fifa08 is a better data base so if you want to creat new leagues of countries that are not that famous you can have this great data base with players and teams of all the countries and leagues around the world, I mean you can put this data base on the EA official site and keep updating it, with new players, teams, kits, and so on, also you can improve your updating page and give more options to the user beacause in Fifa07 so far there are only 2 updates, we need more.
So far this game is too great, I can wait to see the new Fifa and the new features, make Fifa08 the greatest one please!!!!!!
These are much needed additions

Leagues:

USL
Nationwide Conference
Scottish Lower Leagues

Teams:
CANADA

Stadiums:
Wembley
Swangard

CREATE A STADIUM NOT USING MADDEN SYSTEM




MANAGER MODE UPDATES:

"Your Club Perspective"

Clubs offer you jobs at end of season. OFFER not you pick from a bunch like in 05 and 06.
Put your name forward to coach a team.
If you are great maybe INTERNATIONAL MANAGER MODE?
PRESS CONFERENCES and QUESTIONS after every match.
Hire your coaching staff like in madden but with a more Local or Football feel to it.

4.Have somthing like Match Of The Day after the match. Showing highlights.
5.Create a stadium.
6.Add the ref & linesmen.
7.Road to World Cup
8.Improve injuries (e.g Strecher or medic coming onto the pitch to look at his leg or maybe help him to limp to the touch line)
9.Improve the crowd
10.More crowd chants
11.Players warming up on the touch line
12.Hear the manager shouting on the touch line
13.Managers shaking hands at end of the match

15.Cup celebrations (Collecting medals, recieving cup, drinking champagne out of cup maybe, team photo)
16. Half time have music over the tannoy.
17.Training as a option in the menu (Have shootouts & parcitce set pieces)
18.Weather changes during gameplay.
19.A match can get abbandoned due to water logged pitch or power cut etc.
20.Liscensing for the Champions League, FA Cup, Carling Cup & UEFA Cup.
21.Have children walk out onto the pitch with the team captains. (Team mascots)
22. Get rid of the slowdown in the menu & game that occurs very often.
23.When there is a local derby the crowd & players are more fired up, plus the ref is more alret and stirct with late tackles.
24.Season long injuries (Broken foot etc)

34.Champions League music at the beggining of every CL games.
35.Try going back to FIFA 2005 using the first touch control.(It needs Improvement)

37.More Season Highlights. (Including the world cup highlight)
38.Have sponsors like opel, samsung mobile, tamoil, vodafone, o2, Powergen etc...
The Dutch national team needs to be added, I dont know why they are never on the FIFA games but they need to be. If there were some sort of international option on manager mode that would be awsome. It wouldn't even have to be a world cup campaign but even if it were for euro cup or copa america. I agree that the argentine league needs to be added. If you were able to get more chants for all of the teams that would also really add to the game. Keep finesse shot whatever you do though.
Dear fifplay designer team.
in the FIFA 07 ,display graphic is better than before , but it`s not acceptable yet.
FIFA 08 should be full compatibility with DirectX 10 & New Graphic Cards.
it also should be have an easily setup wizard and executability with Microsoft© Windows Vista.
the camera`s viewing in the FIFA products have a problem usually.
objects and players in all type of camera`s , do not have a full detail or full view.
tank you.
I dont really know what the aggression stats does but i think the aggression should decide how often you argue with the ref and get a red or yellow card.

Highlights for more leagues!, like Serie A, La liga, andLigue 1
Also a five-a-side tournament where you can pick your five and get better and play in better stadiums like the new Wembley! You could start off in a small town pitch and advance to famous stadiums!
Also make all the international teams and their stadiums please!
the best fifa was fifa 2003 but fifa 2007 was the closest
It would be really cool if you made a refaree mode where you could make all the desicions, if players swaped tops after matches, indoor footy, cool skills,crowds that interupt the match, kids playing mini-matches at half time,kids entering the pitch with the players,contollable celabrations so you could run into the crowd,real reactions by the ref,a cuppy mode where you can choose 2 players to go against other teams of 2 in 1net and all the other suggestions on this site! This would make the game even more amazing than the others!
you should take time and make the game be better and not release the game in december then in february.I know pes releases the game in february or later andyou want to get more money before thelelese of pes because you are afraid that buyers are going to buy the pes game ,make fifa better and take time to release the game it will pay off and if you make the best game then you could in couple of years raise the price a bit.Don't you people have a financial manager AND NOW get on WORK IF YOU WANT TO ACHIEVE SOMETHING!!!
let the players kick the ball with difernt styles and different sidesof the foot especially during the free kicks.Make the camera change when you score.when you score a goal the crowd gets crazy you should make a camera which is automatically turned on when the ball is goibg over the line so that you could see the crowd in the moment you score goal.
you can adjust ticket prices if you want that a luxury ticket costs over 20000euro then you just adjuste ticket prices.And make stadium upgrade unstopablle if you have a
1000000000euro then you should be able to build a stadium whatever size (for 300000tickets)make it realistic but make it bit unrealistic.If you should get all councils in one game then you have the perfect game.You are now the best .And let make the best player in the 15 years career get a 100 overall.
My idea - Russian Premier League, Egyptian Premier League, Greece Premier League, new cinematics celebrations the trophy, UEFA Cup and UEFA Champions League, 3D faces: I. Akinfeev, Vagner Love, I. Saenko and Daniel Carvalho, BATE Borisov and Dinamo Kiev in Other Clubs.
get out the usseles texts like the season of the death cross.and get out those horrible sunglasses.put in abit more hair styles and make the players in career mode change their styles (the beckham hairstyle goes on pirlo and pirlos goes on henry let them transfer their hair styles:)
make face expressions for the players when winnin g losin under pressure and let the captain lift the pokal when you win a tournament and make some contraversing players be in the center of the focus in press.Make some do figts or come drunk at training so you have to suspend them .Make more informations about international games who scored agoal who was a star.And brig back the men of the mach option.And let the players somethimes have litle fight or verbal duels.And make the net look like in fifa 2006 but just abit a bit harder and get the argentinian league and the copa libertadores in the game,you schould also get patches from all around the web so you save time and the patches are very good so you can get more inovations in less time (unofficial patches that are not reliased by the ea)And put montenegro in international league
andre de brito
you should put more leagues like the liga de hounra (portugal 2nd league), and the netherlands national team is missing?! they're like one of the best!!! player's should not have generic faces every player with a rating above 70 should look like the actual person. and comentary in other languages. also make reteired players available, like in fifa 06 exept not just those guys. have like maradon,pele,eusebio,and zidane too. not just classical players like have cantona, papin, etc.
you schould make a unity of fifa footbal and fifa manager .the price off players schould be rising with the form and his class not like in fifa 07 when adriano scres 26 goals and costs 93.000.000euro and i score 130 goals with a created player and he costs 88.000.000euro you should make rewards for best player ,top scorers ,top assists,clean sheets,make better sponsors and put their logo on the shirt .put some new features in the creation mode while creating players and much much more while creating teams you schould be able to create stadiums or sell their names to sponsors like arsenal did and get for that cash.you should make a trade option a player for aplayer or two player .you should make an option in career mode when you train then you get better and you train more you get better.you schould make some new headlines and articles when you win ,lose and etc.
The FIFA-Nerd
i want line-Referee
and Champions League. FIFA 08 Come soon!!

Thank's
Wouldnt it be great if the player you make (could be you) you would get signed to a team and live the soccer lifestyle with getting paid. Think starting out small time and becoming pro. Thats just one thing I have in mind.
I want а Unreal Engine 3 for Fifa)))
you schould make an option for player psiho is he a rough player something like that
I want new engine for FIFA, or i will buy PES7)))
you schoul dedicate to the create player mode and put some new hairstyles,accesories,you should kick out the sunglasses they are awfull.You schuld make a mode in which you can build stadiums.You scholud make an option in the career mode in which you could make jerseys(kits).You schould make a connection beetwen fifa footbal and fifa manager .While you do the transfers trainings and other things you do it in the fifa manager and when you press play you schould be changing the game automatically to fifa football. At the time of the summer or winter pause you schould be able to make transfers or something other during the summer and not just jump from june to september ,you schould also make rewards for the best players or best player in the league or world and get money for that player you schould also make rewards for top scorers ,top assists the clean sheets and similar.The price of the player scholud be rising with the form and the class of the player not like in fifa 07 adriano scores 26 goals and his price is 93.000.000 euro and i score with goeke 80 goals and his price is 66.000.000 euro and they both have an 99 overall.you should make more more options when creating teams.You should make the keepers save the shots from 40 meters and not save the shots from 5 metres its contrasting and crazy.you should make keepers save the headers which go very slow and very very near to them.You schould the low, midlle ,and high cross you scholud make also make some default pictures for crated players and not just the black shadow,you could make a program which can imprt a picture in fifa 08.And i think fifa is better than pes because its real it has real teams not merseyside reds and masters cup.Fifa should just make a uniti from fifa football and fifa manager.You schould make the players when running more realistic and not holding the head in the other side in which they are runing.When you score a goal in an important match you should be able to throw the jersey to the crowd.When you score a deccising goal you should make the crowd go crazy and while the ball is entering in the goal the camera should change to see the reactions of the crowd .I pozdrav za sve bosnjake u crnoj gori
All my life i have been a a FIFA fan, but recently i have moved to Pro Evo, i really want this fifa to be better than Pro because i prefer all the real kits and leagues you proffesionally get, i just feel you need sort out the game play and make passing less direct and exact. you should also wait untill the very end of the transfer deadline because i had to change ashly cole and gallas, etc. Good luck, please make the PS3 version amazing!!!
change the commentators. get the ledgends of martin tyler and andy gray! and put the build up of the game on like on the tv! cheers fifa
put the englishd conference on there. it will be called the blue square premier league next season. im a die hard exeter fan. we just lost the play off final and im desperate to b city on the best game in the world!!!!!
a deticated gamer
Hi,

My idea for FIFA 08 is to have a good long look at your gameplay!! I was a die hard FIFA fan for years but ever since the shambles that was FIFA 07 on the Xbox 360 I have now converted to Pro Evo. It is only now that I realise how unrealistic the gameplay is on FIFA. Every single game on Pro Evo is unique, I can play for hours on end and never see a goal the same as another. It just feels so much more like the real way a game of football plays out NOT like an attempt to make you feel like it's realistic which FIFA has become.

The only reason I am keeping an eye on FIFA 08 is that the teams and leagues are all the official FIFA leagues etc. Personally I feel EA is too reliant on that fact. The Xbox 360 release of FIFA 07 was a discrace with it's limited teams and leagues whilst my Xbox cousins got the full glory. I hope for your sake that you address this in FIFA 08 as I think many more people will convert to Pro Evo if this is not addressed.

Please Please Please do something amazing with FIFA 08!! And don't forget that Xobx 360 = NEXT GEN so we can cope with all the leagues and online functionality that the Xbox can!

Good Luck with Fifa 08!!!!
.in the new fifa 2008 put hand shale at the end of the game.
.when you get a red card make sure the player gets angry and kick bottles
in anger

.when the players come onto the pitch they hold hands with the children and put the team flags to each player

plus when there is a penalty make it more realistic to save and miss
make the keepers realistic
it would be really good if they kept up 2 date with the hair styles e.g. louis saha and drogba also it would be nice if they had more leagues and more players!!! and strechers and proper injury along with gloves when its cold
Player reactions to cards. u should be able 2 choose how u react to the referee and stuff like that. then ur more deserving to get booked and what not. Also the ref has to be loads better
rich harrison
You should be able to dive and as long as it looks realistic you get a freekick but if it looks like a dive you get booked. There should also be two launchs of the new fifa a year. They should bring back the arrow system when you take a freekick, you have more accuracy and control. Where is the confrence??? As for pro evo... they dont even have championship so how can you say pro evo is better?? I hate pro evo because i cant play with my local team(Derby County). The Players need to look more realistic in championship and lower leagues. They dont look anything like the player in real life. Fifa is still a class game and i would'nt swap it for pro evo in a million years. FIFA= ALLTIME BEST!!!
you should be able to dive without getting booked and there should be the conference legue. finally players should not get so fatigued
