World Cup 2010

[orion523]

Does anyone still have this game, and if you do is it worth a used purchase? I don't play online due to the knuckleheads so I'm not concerned about the servers being closed but I'm kinda feelin' a World Cup tourney for the Spring/Summer and was wondering if I should get this game or just create my on on FIFA 12.

I was looking into this as well. I'm like you and don't play online that much. The only drawback I can see, is that you can't download any of the roster updates, due to the servers being taken down.

I think it's worth picking up. At first I thought the gameplay was too tough. Eventually I realized it was better than FIFA 11. I liked the presentation, as well. I'm sure it's a bargain used. I do believe FIFA 12 is superior to all.

Yeah it's twenty bucks at GameStop, same as the DLC but with much much more content, and real players, thats always a plus! I'm gonna give this a go tomorrow.

Agreed. Presentation is fantastic. If it had tactical defending, easily the best game of the FIFA next-gen series, IMO.

And it's got Be a Pro (or Captain Your Country) and you can also take a team through all the qualifying rounds.

Presentation overall was pretty great. I still have it, but haven't played it in a while. Gameplay would be the only issue, but I remember having a great time with it.

Re: World Cup 2010

I really enjoy WC 2010. It was criticized and soon forgotten bc it was smashed between FIFA 10 and 11, it was a $60 game with national teams and it had a short life-span. Going back to it now after tactical defending is a bit difficult (lots of turnovers and pressing), but for a more casual gamer it delivered. I play offline entirely and feel that the WC games were a little more forgiving if you made mistakes, and the qualifying and details in the game were pretty fun.

I expect it to be a totally different experience gameplay wise, and actually that's what I'm looking for. Although I love FIFA 12 and plan on continuing my CM indefinitely I will use the WC game as sort of a change of pace.

Re: World Cup 2010

It's a bit more arcady in the sense that it's easier to pass defenders and you can make shots from mid field if you know what you're doing.

At the time it was the best game, though.

Right now FIFA 12 takes the crop by a wide margin.

Re: World Cup 2010

Yeah I still have my copy. And I think you just haveta take it for what its worth. Its a couple years old now. FIFA12 is definitely superior. BUT WC is still fun and awesome. (Speaking of I did never win the World Cup )

May be time to make another run now lol

Re: World Cup 2010

Would it be possible to manually update the rosters with a flash drive or something? Because I was considering picking this up too.

I am wondering the same thing. I have a blast playing 7-Player FIFA with my buddies, especially World Cup 2010. I was stupid to sell the game and delete my saves/rosters. Got it back a couple months ago but the servers were down.

Anybody willing to help a fellow out?

Re: World Cup 2010

Why isn't there a Euro 12 game or is there one coming out?
