Re: Buy '12 or wait for '13

Hey man, I just signed up so I could answer, I picked up '12, I haven't played FIFA since the ps2 days. It's a blast, once you tool around with the sliders and get used to the controls, you'll be ready for '13. Also, I'd suggest getting the uefa add-on, I'm really enjoying both.

I'm currently in WCF with my created Chilean AMF and just inked a move to AC Milan from Tottenham.
IMO BAL in PES 2012 is one of the best game modes in any sport game. Also no updates to your to your thread.

Yeah I was thinking the same thing. I might get FIFA 12 instead of the newer NCAA 13, which is sad. I held out on getting the new NCAA because they lacked the 2 Bar Revo Speed (turned out to be a blessing in disguise) but it looks like that it's getting mediocre reviews and I didn't waste my money.

I play FIFA 12 at my buddies every so often and enjoy it.

Should I buy it new or get a used version? The used version won't have the online code right?

Yes , but you can get online code separately for few bucks

Re: Buy '12 or wait for '13

Hey everybody,

Thanks for all the input. I ended up getting '12 a few days ago and played my first session last night. I definitely have a long way to go but it is a fun game. Hopefully I'll get the hang of career mode soon.

Thanks again,

user

Took me a few hours to figure out the Career Mode (being a newbie myself). I'll probably end up getting '13 just to experience the full run of the game as I got '12 pretty late.

Gave my copy of 12 to my son and he was in town the past 2 weeks and we played this pretty much all day sat. I need to pick this up again.

Anyone know of any deals out for 12??

Re: Buy '12 or wait for '13

I'm so glad that EA started up their Season Ticket program. I enjoyed Fifa 12 for the time that I played it, but I want to see what type of improvements have been made before I commit to purchasing 13. I don't really follow soccer, so new rosters aren't as big of a deal to me as they are in other sports.

I can't wait for the World Cup to come back around though because I really had fun with 2010.
