The term Spawning Salmon would go nuts all over the world:lol:

Hehe :lol:

they're not as annoying as the other two.

It's the same people...

no its not

Isn't it andy townsend and someone else? Maybe i thought it was the same people as i haven't actually listened to the commentary since i first got it...

there different commentators in ultimate team mode.

Oh wait i think they're the same ones from fifa 2002...i was playing that not too long ago on the ps2 at my hol house.

haha i tend to play my fifa 03 alot to on my PS2, that was a good game.

Townsend and Tyldsley for UT

Andy Gray and Martin Tyler for regular

Ooooo ok. They sound sort of the same anyway lol

yeah they're all annoying.but it could be worse.

Andy Harper worse. *shudder*

haha can't get more worse than that, fifa 09 sales would be down if he was commentator.

There wouldn't be any fifa 09 sales.

haha

LOL. Imagine they got diff ones for each league. TOMMY SMYTH!!! :P

[rant]Why can't they make a fucking football game with a PROPER.FUCKING.SEASON.MODE!!!

ie. You have a calendar in which you have matches in SEVERAL CUPS (eg FA, League, UEFA, UCL etc). Then at the end of the season teams are promoted/relegated etc. You lose players to international matches, and you even get to chose a nation in which to play the internationals.

Pisses me off in FIFA09, you play your 38 matches in the season... then that's it. Im already going to trade FIFA09 in.

With MLB: The Show, there are 162 games in a season!! :cool: Each takes 1 hour to complete. Value.For.Money. :P[/rant]

Waaaa? They do have playoffs! Go to the CCC or L1 or HAL and its there.

Ok, Ill try my hand at the lower leagues. But my point is EA (and Konami) have never really made an effort to make a 'career' or 'season' mode that really simulates real life that I can recall. The only things close would be Be A Pro and i think it was FIFA06 where you started in like League 2 as a manager and had to work your way up.

Also, I cant recall a game where UEFA Cup or UCL is worked into a domestic league's schedule (like the domestic cups are).

God I haven't played a baseball game since MLB featuring Ken Griffey Jr on N64.

Sounds like MLB The Show is a proper baseball game, not the arcade type stuff that seems to flood the market.

Who do you follow in MLB marty?

For copyright, FIFA calls them EFA and ECC, but they are worked in just like IRL.

Cubs.

Marty, the Master League in PES does most of what you want.

You start in 2nd Division with shit players and play to get promoted, buy players and transfer. You play in the UEFA Cup, Champions League and D1 or D2 cups (cup comp for those in your division/league) if you qualify. You also lose players for a couple weeks every now and then as they have been called up to International Duty.

ML has been doing this for years. And it goes for like...forever I think. Players retire and then are "reborn" a year or so later as a 17yo with low stats in the free agent pool. You have to build up your team and gain experience with your players (player growth). Growth is done auto, but obviously they have to be played. Your players can also exceed their expected growth.

Man, the amount of hours I wasted on ML in PES5 and PES6 is amazing.

Cool. Atleast it's not the Red Sox. Go Yankees!

IIRC Master League uses made up people. That means I actually have to look at stats >.< :lol:

Original. :roll: Why the Yankees?

First team I saw when I got Foxtel. Same with the Green Bay Packers in the NFL.

Ive tried to get into the MLB...for some reason the 'Brewers' appeal to me :-k :twisted:

The late parts of last season were the only time I've ever watched MLB really, i was going for Tampa Bay in the World Series, I will watch a fair bit this season, I need a team to follow.

Fox Sports promote the post-season pretty hardcore.
