The game occupies 130mb of your drive, if you choose your options well, and requires a minimum of 20mb. In any case, anyone who has played an EA Sportsgame from the last two years will feel right at home. Can anyone tell me the exact meaning of that tiny 'blackboard' black box that appears on the lower left of the screen sometimes? I tend to believe it means advantage was given, but hey, my guess is as good as yours. Sure, you can find all possible key combinations listed - if you can understand them - but quite a bit is not mentioned at all. The same white box and the same less than informative manual. It seemed impossible that EA could make something that would actually be so much better as to justify a full release.Īs far as packaging goes, FIFA 99 follows the well-known adage: "if it ain't broke, don't fix it." EA Sports games simply look the same on the outside year in, year out. And I waited with bated breath to see FIFA 99. I resisted buying World Cup 98 with all the willpower I could muster, after having played it a couple of times and deciding that it was simply not worth it when I already had the first one. I reviewed FIFA Road To World Cup 98 last fall, and gave it the only gold award I ever have. I personally believe this ploy would not have been accepted so easily had the games not been very, very good indeed. The fact that this meant one had to pay the full price just to get an upgrade for an existing game, I am sure, only made EA happier.
EA Sports , however, made sure we were all enjoying ourselves in front of the computer instead of watching Italy on the telly, by releasing two FIFA games instead of the usual one. The world championships saw a distressing decline in the number of exciting matches (were 32 teams really too many?), while we also welcomed a newcomer to the world champions club. Soccer fans were glued to their seats in 1998 - and with good reason.
