      I love the gameplay so far, didn't play the demo at all so I'm just coming in from last years game and there is a huge difference. As another poster said it's nice you can't sprint down the sideline and then put a perfect cross mid stride right in the box. You really have to turn towards the net first and then try to cross it which is nice. Defense definitely takes some getting used to but as long as your fairly conservative at first it's not that hard to get used to.

      The online is crazy, are there seriously no ranked games where you can see what team the other player is picking. Not seeing what jersey your opponent is using is crazy how did they not account for that. Plus I like matching up the teams and knowing if we're both using 4 or 5 stars. I think it's terrible since I mainly just play online with some BAP and manager mode mixed but probably 75% of my games are online so for me this is a frustrating addition.

        I started mine around 6:10 pm and it still has 90 minutes to go around 7:27pm. There can't be THAT many people downloading it. Especially with the staggered release times for NA and Europe.

          As a person who really just started following soccer last year and getting Fifa 11 for my 1st soccer title, I gotta say I'm in love with this game. I'm not your typical soccer guru so it doesn't take much for me to enjoy this game.

          Graphics are insane as expected, gameplay is smoother to me than last year. Overall this game is a winner in my book.

          Gonna follow the threads a little more to get more info on how the weekly roster thingy/leagues work. Any info is appreciated.

          Madden 12, Ncaa 12, TW12 The Masters, Gears of War 3 and now this Fifa 12??? Next week NBA2K12 and BF3 soon to follow. My gaming year is set. Helluva year to be a gamer. This "CUSSWORD" never gets old.

              Since you played the other game's demo and enjoyed it like me, I'm REALLY looking forward to your impressions more than most. Let me know what you think.

                  Couple of quick impression on PS3

                  -Can't believe how different the gameplay feels from the demo. It's hard to describe, but it's a much more organic feeling game, and more of a departure from the familiar FIFA feeling in the demo. It's wonderful to finally have some time to be creative in the midfield. I'm very surprised and impressed by the overall feel so far.

                  -Not seeing the cpu dominate balls in the air as much

                  -PS3 version looks inferior to the 360 demo version, but it is by no means horrible. Visuals are a little muddier and the colors not as vibrant.

                          Quick impressions after 4 games.

                          World Class
                          10 Minute halves
                          Normal Game Speed
                          Semi Passing, Crossing, and Shooting
                          Manual Through Balls and Lobs

                          Lazio 2 Roma(me) 0
                          QPR 3 Fulham(me) 0
                          QPR 4 Fulham(me) 1.......Played on Professional Level
                          Lazio 4 Roma(me) 0

                          Can't say that it's a lot different than the demo because it's really hard to get a good idea of how game is going to play out with 3 minute halves. That and I don't see a lot of glaring differences from how the demo played.

                          One thing is certain, and that is that most of us will have to re-learn how to play this game. It's that different from previous versions. The way you attack, defend, etc needs to be different.

                          The overall pace of the game is so much better than it has been in the past and the game just "feels" right. No more fast break route one sprint fests for 90 minutes.

                          More later...

                              Watching a cpu vs cpu game here. Argentina vs U.S. and I'm sure what I'm seeing carries over when a human player is in control, the defenders are way to passive when the opposing team is within 15 feet of your goalie. When there is a player standing within 15-20 feet in front of your goal with the ball, you go right after that guy with the ball, you can't be standing there, 8 feet away from the guy with the ball whos in front of your goal, just staring at him.

                              That's the only glaring thing I see. I notice there are sliders as well. Wonder if anyone has messed with the sliders yet.

                                I'm very impressed. Only played a handful of games, so don't have much to report.

                                Main noticeable differences from last years version is that I actually have to concentrate on playing defense and winning the game! Last year, my only focus was scoring. It was so easy to dominate possession. Not this year. Can't wait to start a career mode
