Listen to the Podcast
Podcast
11 November 2008

By Romily Broad


Every week, key members of the FIFA game team over in Vancouver, Canada, record a special podcast. This podcast is delivered straight into the game and can be listened to while in the arena, for example.

For instructions on setting up the podcast in the game, see the end of this very page...

Technical limitations mean that the in-game podcast can only be five minutes long. But there are no such limits on the Internets!

Every week, we'll publish a complete, extended version of the podcast right here.

This week, Marcel (producer) and Mike (designer) discuss a load of different things. Subjects include the recent patch for the PC version of the game, the FIFA Interactive World Cup and a retuned online ranking system.

Interestingly, they also talk about their very own developers' FIFA Club, dubbed EA Sports FC. They've been playing a lot of games online, and apparently they're a bit pants.

They also detail the adidas Live Season team of the week, an all-star squad boasting football's most improved players as determined by the Live Season team.

So, plenty to listen to this week.

@ Bobby702. If you're wondering why your comment was deleted, it's because we don't do naming and shaming here. You raise the issue of people quitting out while playing online, and the fact it's affected you. It's an issue that's discussed in the podcast linked in the article, you should have a listen...
