Can be alot more interactive with the players and you get a response from them... So you can talk to individual players in a calm, passionate, aggressive manner etc. and they will respond in a stressed, motivated or fired up manner. You can speak to a sub before you send him on and tell him what you expect. You can talk to each group eg defence, midfield and strikers. Got all new camera angles to watch the highlights from and of course up to date teams etc.

I played it for about 5 hours last night. Finished the first season with Adelaide United in 7th place. The chairman sold Slory and McKain behind my back. Made it very hard for me. But got $4 million to throw around in the next transfer window. Might try and get a national U19s role with some island nation like Cook Islands or Vanuatu, just so im competing in a cup, coz i dont think the Reds will be qualifying for the Asian Champions League any time soon...especially with me at the helm :lol:

Yeah the new defending system takes a bit of getting used to and puts a lot more emphasis on timing it right otherwise you get left very exposed. Frustrating at times but brings more skill into defending I guess.

You can apply the FIFA 11 defending system to FIFA 12 if you want.
I find the computer tends to have about 60 per cent of possession in most games I'm playing, which is frustrating.
Most of the time, I'm holding X while jockeying, then as they get closer to goal, your defenders can get closer to the player with the ball, and eventually steal/intercept.

Started Batman Arkham City yesterday after finishing off Resistance 3. It's simply incredible, only played about 3 hours off it and I'm absolutely hooked already. I loved and smashed Arkham Asylum and AC is bigger and better in everyway.

Yeh $79 is a steal i guess, although i have heard that it is to cost you and extra $65 for an online subscription if you wish to play it online, only heard that though

same so if you have to pay to play online i wont be buying it, online is the only way to play the game!
I was told by a staff member of the Game store there will be 2 types of options
1. You can buy the 'ultimate pack' for $160 or something and that gives you every map once more get released and includes your online subscription.
2. You can buy the game on its own for $89. Then if you want to play online its $65 and you need to buy maps if you want them.
I was told this when i picked up my copy of FIFA 12 so the end of September.
