    Did this come out today? I can't find any shops in the entire city that have it. The release date on IGN is today, however I'm getting conflicting reports as to it's availability. Does anyone have any info?

    I'm not too concerned. I just got the first play station and fifa 2002 used this weekend and am undefeated so far behind the genius of ansil elcock.

    Uh, hang - you sure you shouldn't be posting in the "pot" thread...?
    3stripe can not be happy with the PS. ;)

    Zak - Why werent you at the NYC marathon - lotsa fit babes who can run sub-8 minute miles were available for the taking... :)

    As to answer your question : The release date is Nov.4, which simply means that the company is releasing the products to the stores on that date, not that the stores may necessarily have it on the release date - so it may take a few days to get to your store (especially in a po-dunk place like Columbus) - I've run out of smilies...damn.

    Usually I get it here downtown in Cols on the day it comes out, suprised it's not here.

    I could get it on PC, but I'm going to get it on GC. What's the point, I wouldn't have a proper challenge if you played with Wolves all the time.

    I have a friend who is a manager at a Best Buy. He told me that they usually don't receive the shipment on new video games until, at the earliest, the afternoon of the release date. Then, they have to stock the shelves. He suggested that I wait until tonight before attempting to purchase it.

    No Fed Ex trucks are easier to hijack, you have to wait for a UPS truck to turn over and then take the game

    You'll probably see the PC version, maybe others in alt.binaries news groups. Probably also see it on bit torrent warez sites for a little while if you can find'em.

    I'll be installing a new mobo/XP barton 2500+ tonight.

    I have two identical cases, one black and one beige. I was going to break out the paint and make a Crew black kit PC and Crew yellow kit PC. The I realized how completely lame that would have been so to hell with it.

    I'd game but my hands are screwed from years of computers, I can barely hang with the kid on his PS/2 with Fifa 2002 (complete with a dominating goal-scorer, Brian West)/NHL 2001... Might get Fifa 2004 for the kid but I think he just wants the money...

    One screen shot has the ref cautioning someone that looks like Williams.

    Bonus points for realism...

    I would also imagine Martino's early season hair overloaded the pixel rendering engine, so it looks shorter.

    I really wanted them to post the roster with stats, I wonder if they corrected McBride's stats.

    is it actual MLS stadiums, or do they use the same 4-5 typical EA euro-looking stadiums over and over again?

    Shocking lineup, I can't believe that Presthus is starting in the center of the defense, and that Chacon is a sub keeper. What the hell were EA thinking. Furthermore, McBride has once again been slighted by EA, how can they rate him so low. It's impossible to overlook, once again I'm going to have to start cunty and partner him with Buddle. I'm also thinking that you have to slide Presthus back to GK and sub in McCarty, and have Busch as your backup GK. Paule looks to have crap stats, so he'll get the drop as well.

    I should've expected this, EA always loses the plot when they rate Columbus, and MLS for that matter.

    Presthus is a higher rated CB than Williams, which is probably accurate.

    Oh lordy, lordy... The only off season comfort I get is laughing at how sorry the Crew can be. I'm such a 'tard...

    anyone want to gamble on the fact that when I get FIFA 2004 I will be able to lead this group to the double, and probably knock off every major club in the world? This should be enough to get me the job as soon as Andrulis is sacked.
