In utter disappointment I slammed the controller down, punched the bed and swore a few times. Then I realised - Thats what football management is all about (like it or lump it), and fifa 08 is the closest I will ever get to the real thing. Once I won 6-0 on the euro 08 demo and wasnt in the least bit bothered. Now I finally understand how real-life managers feel; but you know what - i wouldn't have it any other way.
Right, I'm got a potentially tricky priemier league class with villa to get on with. Now if only I can stop Ashley Young with his crossing.................

Too bad over half the games **** you off. I play video games to have fun, and not to get ****ed off. I noticed that I was having more bad times than good times with FIFA 08, and that's put me off.
And for the wrong reasons it ****es me and other people off too. It's so blatently obvious when the CPU is forcing goals on you and all you can do is sit and watch. Hell, I've even had times where the CPU missed goals on purpose to keep the game consistent. Ex. CPU shoots on GK, GK parries, ball in air, CPU headers and hits post, GK on ground, CPU heads wide of open goal. I don't see how winning games in a fashion like that can make someone happy. Feels like the CPU decides human vs. CPU games before it kicks off.
We all appreciate a difficult game, but it should only be done if it's fair to both sides.
