There's already been a patch released for FIFA 11 so when you get your copy you'll be prompted to update. The patch addresses several issues that were not fixed in time for shipping, like Pressure, first touch, trapping, shielding.

Tweaks to pro passing also make it seem less noticeable and ping-pong passings is more applicable than the demo, but still not as bad as FIFA 10.

Also for those interested in the replay theater, it's a big, big let down. You can only save 5 goals to your hard drive and they save in video format and once you've saved the camera angle, you're stuck with it as it proccesses it like a video file ready to upload. It also saves in the same video quality as the goals you can upload.

That is poor from EA, very poor.

There's pirate versions of it already Kris, might just download it to say I got it before you. ;)
 
So unfair, Americans don't even play football so much, but still they have it released before us :( ;)

Agreed, the majority of them much prefer to watch their armoured men slap each other in between ad breaks, yet they get a football game earlier than the home of the game? For shame, EA.

We got FIFA 10 weeks before US did, and just because the sport isn't as popular over there doesn't mean they can't have something a few days before other countries.

Oh, also, a big fat HA ******* HA to Kris. :)

No, I'm not saying they can't, I'm saying they shouldn't. Why should a place with a vastly smaller fanbase get preferential treatment?

FIFA is still miles behind Pro Evo when it comes to replays in my opinion.

No doubt, if Konami have done it ever since the PSX, don't see why it's so hard for EA to do it too.

It's not preferential treatment, games in America just come out on Tuesdays as opposed to Fridays like here. I'd imagine EA didn't want the additional hassle of breaking conventions for a simultaneous release date. Of course I would have been nice if they'd release it over there on the 6th, but I think they already have another two sports titles releasing in October.

Just be thankful you all *** FIFA and not PES, for some bizarre reason the UK has to wait an extra 8 days compared to mainland Europe.
