the Brazilian league! why aren't they in the game?! the past two years brazilian teams have won the toyota cup proving they are the best club teams in the world! i know they may not have money like the european teams or players with big famous names, but they have proven to be the best!
the iranian League in the fifa 2008...
https://youtu.be/fuLMnhkqcfU ==> is that the new FIFA 08?
because it looks great, and you shouldn't do a better version for ps3 than ps2 because many people want to play a good game and they dont have ps3!!!!!!!!! so please make a great one for ps2 thanks
A few ideas that I'm sure have been mentioned include...

1. More teams, especially national teams.
2. There was an improvement in Fifa 07 in terms of real cleats but i think this should be improved. Make it so in the fan shop you can buy all the Nike, Adidas, Lotto and other brand cleats. Then make it so you can edit any player in the game to wear the cleat you want them to in any color that the brand sells it in. This would be really cool.
I think this will totally blow everyone an d by the way,sell more fifa 08 titles........my idea is "To include femenine soccer teams in fifa 08"
I think fifa should have a button on the controller that can make your player dive. If you dive miles away from anyone you get booked but if you do it just before a tackle you can get away with it.
1.Make the team work together!
2.Make sure you can see great diffrences in playstyles, like ronaldinho and C.ronaldo add there favorite tricks like flip-flap(akka)

FIFA great game but so is PES! combine powers and make an awsome game!!

greats
More commentary. Also in Dutch, German or whatever country they sell FIFA08 in. But more diverse. I am hearing the same sentence over and over again... And there is absolute NO passion in it. I have switched to English now, because their commentary is more diverse (at least it seems that way, maybe because it is an other language for me) and because they regard a game like real-life...

Also more manager-like features in the game. Try to combinate FM and FIFA in one game. We don't care that it will be 10GB's as long as it comes to the good of the game!

Fifa is by far one of the best franchises there is. KEEP IT THAT WAY!
you know how the goalkeepers dive in like only 4 or 5 ways.
they could make the goalies be more realistic and save a shot from the top corner or punt the ball into the opponents hot area. that would b great.
also make a superstar mode where u can be only one player.

and make the shots have a curve to them like that famous robeto carlos free kick in 02
I think the following should be included in FIFA 08

CSKA Moscow in Rest of the World League
More stadiums e.g. Celtic Park, Hampden, Maracana
Goalkeepers can be sent off
slide tackle the goalkeeper
choose if you want the free kick after being fouled or to play on
more crowd chants and songs
crowd urging the team on
different styles of free kicks e.g. swerve out
more tricks
Champions League instead of UELC or whatever its called
more choices of balls
players slip on wet groung
players wearing gloves and long sleeves in winter
more choices in create a player mode
diving to make it realistic
players getting carried off on a stretcher when injured
interviews with the press like on Total Club Manager
Being able to manage a international team
bigger atmosphere in derbies and bigger build up
being able to see the trophie when you win a tournament and not just the players with a ball in front of them
commentators for different leagues and tournaments e.g. Clive Tildsley for Champions League, Gerry McNee for La Liga
Turkish and Austrailian A league
higher ratings for players and clubs like Celtic not just 3 and a half star which is the same a Getafe
players showing emotions
argentinean league !!!!!
Captain armbands, you could be able to see the coaches reactions manager maybe sent off the manager.
Also give the goalies red or yellow cards.
Give a goalie a yellow card if he holds the game by taking a long time to execute a goal kick.
you should put all leagues in on x box 360 including ladies
and more stadiums like (celtic) parkhead. ibrox tyncastle. white hart lane.bolton.etc
it would be good if you had a referee on the pitch aswell just a thought iam a big fifa player so would be good to see and faster game play .
i think that you should be able to see referees and linesmen/ assstant referees on the pitch and you should also be able to dive in the box and outside the box and either get away with some or get caught on occasisions. I also fial think that you should have the real reserve teams on the game an coach them and the teams that get into uefa and europe should be in eurpe at the start of your season in career mode.
In FIFA 07 what i have noticed the most is how many of the players look alike.................. e.g. Ben Foster ( Watford f.c ) and ( some lower league person ) . Recently I have counted approximately 100 lookalikes ( from different leagues ) and ' the same team' in real life many of these players look very, very different. I was wondering if you could spend more time on personalised looks....... if not just top star teams players all looking different.........Cheers........
how about an actual real crowd! not them crummy 2-d representations and realistic faces for players other than on man u and chelsea. more realistic goalkeeper motion. players you try to sign actually have an idea of how good a club you are not a pre set interpretation of what's a big club. your own face as the manager, surely what with all this new technology that can be achieved? swap deals and you can pick how long a loan deal is. the option to play with a constant transfer window. you should be able to put a team in whatever division you like. either good commentary or no commentary! it's absolute shyte
What i want to see in FIFA 08 is to have the option of a Superstar Mode like in Madden 07. Also a Created team mode where you can design you're own kit with more styles than in 07, where you can have the team badge and sponsors on the shirts.

There are a few other things that really do my nut in. For example, i spend ages playing a league, or in the cup competitions, you finally win the competition and you want to see you're team captain climb the podium and lift the Cup! In the 07 version you have about 10 secs of footage of players running around and then kneeling on the grass. Please, Please, Please can you take a leaf out of Pro Evo's book and actually have a podium with the Cup or League trophy on it, and all the players collect their medals and stand behind the team captain as he lifts the trophy? That would just about do it for me.

Oh actually another thing. When i play the game i like to create myself into the game as captain, please can you add an option where you can choose what style or colour you're captains armband is? In the 07 version the so called captains armband looks ridiculous.

Another option that would be nice is the Create a Stadium feature, adding on sponsors logos and realistic crowds with their teams shirts on.

Thats about it for me. The first two reasons should definately be included otherwise im afraid that FIFA 07 is the last FIFA title i bought.

Thanks
OK i really do hope this gets read and taken seriously because i think this could take fifa onto a whole new level ill explain in detail under each request so here it goes:
1)An international manager challenge
I belive in the previous fifa that the international teams were some what over looked and underused i think it would be magic if you could chose a country and manage them to glory from qualififcations into major tournaments like the world cup and european cups and be able to chose what country the tournament is held. Just imagine how a player would feel if he could see john terry or his captain lifting that world cup aloft as fans sing the national anthem or sing terrace songs the imence pride they would get from knowing they took there country all the way.I know ea will have other international tiltes like the old world cup game etc but this would be so much better not restricted to the team already picked and being able to play in any country.Think of all the fans with no real club following this would really appeal to them i belive konami did it on current gen in pro evo but just think how much better you could do it you could take a good idea and make it great et us live the dream.......

2)Fans interaction
This is a major one for me as well i would love to see the fans become more vocal get more involved if you are having a poor half or lost a winnable game let there fans voice there anger lets here the calls for sacking or boos and when your enjoying the highs of football lets here that to. Imagine if you had the international challenge imagine extra time against germany semi final and three lions started rocking the stadium you could make the players respond to this.Also how about seeing fans reaction to goals or loses or relaegation lets see there facial expression

3)Winning cups etc
We all love to win cups but to me the last fifa did not excite my passion to win if you win the league or fa or european or world cups lets see the players rejoice collect the medals hoist the cup into the air and celebrate it gives a real sense of achivment it wont increse game play but whats the point in playing hard ,last the seaon ,hours and hours of lost social time when you get to the post and win and theres no parade no celebration you wouldnt expect man utd to win the league and say there you are boys you won but you cant celebrate it.......

4)Create manager
If you either take control of an internatonal side or club side you should be able to make a manager that you can watch on the touchline on games, you could have a suited and booted sven type or a trackie wearing marching up and down the touchline like neil warnock the player could then create his face type for the manager so it really makes them feel like there in the game.

These a few i have time for i have read others and think they also have great points i bleive with a few of my ideas ea can take fifa to a whole new level and please ea on international manager dont not put it in because of your other games like euro 08 think of your paying public take leaf out of konamis book because i love fifa always have but if they can offer international football other tha nfriendlys and online i myself and many other none club fans may just convert and i never thought id say that please dont let me and other down
In FIFA 07 in the English League 2 the bottom of the table stays in the same league !!! This is quite poor as they should have been relegated..... I think FIFA 08 should atleast another league below league 2 so that the rubbish teams can go down and... not have the privelage of actually staying in the same league !! Also say if you do make.............. '' the Conference league'' then the bottom teams of that league dissapear for a year and get replaced by new teams.. Then when the next couple of teams play bad and get to the bottom of the table..... the old teams come back and the new '' Bottoms of the table'' dissapear .e.t.c!
You should have the following things!

1] More Created Players
2] The manager should be able to get offered an international contract to play in the world cup
3] new skills can be learnt on the way (maybe a youth player can eventually learn the stepover or flipflap?
4] YOU MUST BE ABLE TO MAKE A NEW STADIUM FOR LIKE 200Mil!
5] you should be able to set your own transfer value,
e.g] a reserve who you value a lot maybe change from £35,000 to £5,000000
Create-a-team is awfull and there should be greater detail such as:
-actual kit sponsors eg Nike, Adidas, Puma in Create-a-team mode
-create a stadium feature
-real boots eg Nike, Adidas, Puma in Create-a-player mode
-player career mode, like in Madden NFL
this would be great!!!
oh yeah one more thing in international matches the countries national anthem should be played to bring up the atmosphere
Fifa should chamge back to the original free kick system used in fifa 2005 this system was much more interesting and gave you a better chance of great goals
in fifa 08 i think the players should be able to adapt to the enviroment they play in like if the were waiting for the ball to come into the box they would have to move around quikley. and when the ball comes in you dont just shoot you adapt your body to the way the players around you are set out so your not taking the same looking volley over and over again. another thing is all football stadiums from all leaguesand steven gerrards overal should start at 94 and end at 97.all the crouds can sing there footbal theme song like liverpools never walk alone and manus glory glory song you know.diving in the game and real cups like fa cup championes league and more. also when you take a free kick steven gerrards is not like real life is it ?????. also the most popular players in the prem like rooney ronaldo henry drogba gerrard should all have there own styles of the way they play football like gerrard the way he looks like a striding horse and ronaldo with lightening pace. id like to see the capacity of the stadiums like on a boring match day the stadium is not really much full you know . and when your player hets injured he should be brought of on a strecher insted of carrying on playingid also like to see acurate teams aswell.all players of the prem and other important teams should have real like faces like steve finnan does not look like him or gareth barry .the tactics need changing aswell like your able to on pro . because you can move around the players to put them were you want them to be.there should be shop to buy football boots to edit the players and beeing able to choose the match ball.the penaltyes should be enabled with the puting off tactic used in fifa world cup 2006. im sorry if any words are spelt wrong but hey i really am eager to see these features in the game.... oh and one more thing make the game a little bit more cheaper please thankyou
the 2e division in the netherlands the jupiter leage
we should have chairman offers to buy out clubs every kit sponsor and if a sponsor offers you a good deal we should put there logo on the kits and choice of boots make on every player and created player this would be the best game ever ifthis happend thanks !!!! callum
hallo ich finde FiFa 01 besser als 08
In the interview with Bruno, the producer at EA, he is asked if he plays FIFA 08 and he says he does at the office, on PS2 and Xbox I think. Why can't you then release it, or if its not finished a betaversion that you pay full price for ? I would be happy to do it and then you can receive feedback on what to improve before its too late. And with that feedback you can fix all small details and make the game perfect.

I think that would give you a big advantage in contrast to Konami and their next PES-title

YNWA, Liverpool for Champions League 2007 !
We should have the scottish 1 ,2 and 3 divisions as well as parkhead Ibrox Tynecastle and easter road cause sotland has not enough teams on Fifa games currently.
a player mode whare you can go through your career and move clubs - like in manager mode
put real managers in the game and make 360 version better than current gen, why pay more money just for better graphics re-do managers mode make it more realistic and i know u wanna make money but put champions league in the actual fifa 08 game and also u have the espn license USE IT for teams in america and try to get sky sports for european teams

Konami are working on an exclusive edition for PS3. Electronic Arts has lost this kind of momentum with 2 poor versions of the game, when they could have done the definitive soccer game for Xbox 360. Now, Konami will make a far better game and will regain their crown as best soccer game in any platform. Look at it EA, you could concentrate on the Xbox 360 version of next FIFA and make the best and sell millions in only one platform... or continue with your multiplatform poor conversions and make not as much money as the competition. Konami, with so less inversion in development will get more profits this time again.
Include more leagues than PES, concentrate in making a better game and demostrate that Xbox 360 and PC have more graphical power than PS3. That´s the only point here. Maybe listening to Europe for improving your "Futbol" game you can do it better.
But I agree. PES 7 will be better on PS3 than anything you can do. And if it is only equal to what you do... It´ll be better for millions of fans of the game.
you have to put the romanian championship in the game , this is my wish
Oh yeah and goalkeepers taking free kicks and penalties
Okay... I love FIFA, I've had every game of it since I ever heard of it. But it should have,

1)Better tricks
2)Better crowd and general atmosphere., individuality to each stadium, e.g the Anfield Flag at Anfield.
3)The Australian A league!
iv heard that fifa 08 isnt being released on xbox, and only xbox 360.

if this is true, bring it out on xbox!!
Hi,

I would think it would be a great idea if they put the greek leage, besides is not fair.
In 07 they had the turks besides the Greek leage is better than the
Turkish.
Also It would be nice to add some more leagues from South Amrica
olatunde oludahunsi
1)there should be a referee on the pitch.

2)new tricks and skills

3)more flexibility and free movement of players to improve game play

4)world cup to release players, and frendlies both international and club during managorial campaigne.
We want Russian league and the normal composition of national Russia team=)
olatunde oludahunsi
1)there shuld be refree on the pitch.
2)new tricks.
3)there shuld be world cup 2 release players like my good friend anonymous has said.
4)more flexibility and free movement of players to improve game play.
Just a few things that could make fifa 08 great!

>Referee and linesman visible all the time during the match and doing correct signals, not just appearing in cut scenes

>Make the lower league players look much more realistic since it is now possible on next gen, and also get some real lower league stadiums in there, such as Carlisle's Brunton Park, and other lower league stadiums

> For lower league teams, and if you are on the brink of promotion or relegation, and you mange to win or survive, let the crowd do a pitch invasion!

>Let the crowd animation and sounds be much more realistic


Hope you include some of them! Cheers!
I will more stadiums.

fifa 08 to base look fifa 2003 now is the uk the bigst with stadiums.
euro 2000 stadiums look Philips stadium and feyenoord stadium.

and celtic park, white hart lane stadium of monaco,alianz arena,geotlieb stadium.

and dutch national team.
argentinie league, and a much smaller league a-league of australia.
and more faches.
and teams of south-america

world cup for teams in coach mode.
and traning mode.
Give to Russians Premier League!
i also think it would be interesting to be able to play as just 1 player, not only a team
The 360 version should have all the leagues from the Fifa on other platfoms. They should also sort out the shading and graphics of players as the graphics were shocking
hi add ibrox or park head or at least even hampden from scotland nd please make the crowd look more realistic and more leagues. i yould also like it if when you won the league or something at the end of the season there was a presentation for player of the year and like the winner of the league getting their trophy.or maybe even the odd streaker and toilet rolls and everything getting frown onto the pitch just like real life
if i see any of these things in fifa08 i will stay with the game and be a fafa fan
BYE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! thx
i wish u could swap one player with another in the trnsfer market in manger mode.Because in fifa07 u can just buy player or lone them but u can't do swap transfer.also in manger mode can we mange international tean like england and brazil, that will be so much bretter and have problem that the manger can deal like takeover roumers and the club getting finned.can player fight in the the game, if they don't like each other,they say bad things to each otherin the match and they don't have for each other.if someone get a red card they should be more rection taking place e.g manger getting up ,palyer reacting.one more thing is that there should small games in the game.like walle on psp in fifa07.have crazy challegesin the game that we can do and we'll have fun at the same time.
