EA Sports FIFA 2005 (for PS2)?

[The Great Escape]

I love this game but I only have one complaint. The international side is horrible. No Holland, No Croatia, No True World Cup Qualifying as in Past EA Sports FIFA games. Will this be corrected on the 2006 edition (since this is a World Cup season)? Do the non WC years tend to be more club oriented than international. It would be terriffic if they could integrate an international component into the career mode.

1. world cup years are more international oriented

in off years, the international options are horrific.

2. Thanks...I Knew In The Past...

I could do a full qualifying campaign for every region in FIFA.

3. yes, I'm looking forward to that version

I got 04 for xbox, but 05 looks so similar, I figuered I'd wait for international stuff in 06.

All hail the three lions! :D

4. I prefer World Soccer Winning Eleven, myself

I think the gameplay is more flexible, even though the lack of an online mode is disappointing and the career mode is somewhat lacking.

5. It's Really Amazing How Far All Of These Games Have Come...

I can remember playing a video game back in '94 where every player on the German National Team all looked like Rudi Voeller and every player on the American side looked like Alexei Lalas.

6. I'm a PES4 man myself

used to play FIFA until I tried PES, and now there is no going back. Its just such an awsome game...
