I really do like gomez and for a pure serie a team hes the best RM/RW option over maggio, krasic, pepe etc

i think ibra would be better in a different formation but miccolli has that pace (although hes not super fast) for the counter attack and messi is supposed to be good in space as he lacks the stength. will need a squad with ibra in it though, looks like hes getting a 2nd IF this week but thtll probs cost 600-900k. when im rich again ill give ibra a good shot as ST in that team but miccolli is about 100 times cheaper lol

ive tried quite a few formations, 4231, 352, 451, 41212, 433 but 5221 is my favourite so far and im proberly going to stick with it.

ive never used Ronaldiho but will give him a shot at some point

ive used a fair bit of IF's and my opinion is that for players who's NIF's are average (milito,pirlo, boteng etc) it makes them into a great players and ussually at a decent price so is often worth it. but for those who are Great even in NIF (ibra, lavezzi, silva etc) it makes them more only if you are rich. the most expensive player ive had was SIF falcao (175k) but the formation i was using him in didnt do him justice. his NIF is supposed to be really good and is only 5-6k

IF kaka might not be too expensive tbh but a lot of those in in your team will be pricey, comes down to wether youd rather have more teams or buy shiny black cards :p. i didnt use hulk that much and i used him in a 41212, would definetly get him if i was making a Brazil squad although your formation dosnt have RM and you have plent of players whod fit in CAM (RAM) in your team proberly just aswell. i really liked robino at CAM when i played 451

if you like having loads of teams i wouldn't bother with IF's unless its a player thats cheap and you really like, i prefer having about 3 teams so just pump loads of coins into them!

well as well as the brazil team ive also started on a italy team, but tbh im not really that sold on either. For me, if it is a team of players you actually like in real life, it makes it a lot more fun to play with them as strange as it sounds. for example so far, the only teams ive used extensively are the serie a team (I watch italian football obviously) and a couple of scottish teams (no explanation needed).

i might just sell the Italy and brazil teams and make an Argentina team, cause im a bit of an argentina fanboy :lol: and just leave it at that, so thats 2 squads, then i can try a bit more in forms i suppose

but ill definetly give the 5221 and gomez a go when i get the chance. cant really play weekdays anymore for now, and this weekend im in ireland for the scotland rugby game so i might not get to play it anytime soon :/

cool, yeah i like argies aswell, gomez is ARG btw ;) and people say upped aguero is like a cheaper messi with 5* weak foot. also as you say its good using players you like and IF milito is about 40k. problem with them is their defence but if you play lavezzi -camb-gomez you can stick in a serie a def anyway :p

have you made a scottish/spl silvers team? i really want to make a team with Russel in it and ive heard bannan's good aswell

messi, and aguero are waaaaaaaaay out of my price range so, im thinking Tevez and IF milito as strikers and then abuse the pacey wingers :lol: and yeh, their is walter samuel, but other than that the defence is so unbelievably shit. only 1 gold LB and 1 gold RB. It would help if EA didnt make Zanetti a CDM like. Also very average goalies.

My strongest scottish silver team used to be

-------miller----russell-----------
--driver--bannan--brown----templeton--
--wallace--caldwell--berra---whittaker--
-------------alexander--------------

unbelievable pace and 4* skills on both wings, and just in general good overall team speed. Danny Swanson is great too, but doesnt have the skill of driver and templeton. i only got rid of it to raise funds for Ibra.

and btw is IF milito 3* or 4* skill?

cool, like the idea of Templeton as well, a lot of good Scottish youth on the go at the minute.

Milito's only 3* skills and 3* weak foot :( but has 99 finishing and volleys and some other nice stats.

couple of sites in case you haven't come across them yet:
use http://www.futhead.com/ to check NIF stats, average prices and skills/weak foot which should be the same for NIF as IF, also can build teams, get them priced and check chem

http://forum.ea.com/uk/posts/list/1155479.page all the IF stats, obviosly CTRL+F then type your name as the names are all over the place

I'm pretty sure there is a Fifa thread...
there's a thread for the VP team which is completely unrelated to this and i don't know of another Fifa thread

Templeton, Driver, Swanson and Wylde even are great, but Forrest isnt. EA logic.

And i dont know of any Fifa thread either, so please just post a link Alessandro ;)

Got my Wi-Fi only Vita on launch day along with Uncharted, Shinobido 2, Dynasty Warriors Next and a 16GB Memory Card, the place I got it from also threw in a free starter kit so I got myself a neat case and front screen protector too. Loving it so far, I was impressed before I even loaded up my first game: just the whole layout and feel of the system is great, the interface is really intuitive and the touch screen looks fantastic. The camera is a bit disappointing but I never really planned on using it anyway. I'm not much for handhelds but I would definitely recommend it to anybody considering getting one.

Is worth it if I buy PS3 at this time with all the rumours of new consoles like Xbox720 and PS4?

Of course it is, there are shit tons of fantastic games to play, you might want to play used games for cheap. I wouldn't count on backwards compatibility from Sony :trollol: So if you want to play all those great games from past 4-5 years, pick up PS3

Backwards compatibility is the ability to play games from the previous generation(s). PS2 was backwards compatible with PS1 games. PS3 is backwards compatible with PS2 and PS1 games. The exception is the 40GB model of the PS3- it is only BW compatible with PS1 games- not PS2..

:eek:blivious:

The old models have backwards compatibility, check the chart in Wikipedia. There's a few PS2 classics in the store, shit games though, except Harvest Moon :D

I saw one PS3 last friday. It was very cheap though. Just RM699 (Malaysian currency) around $130 if change it to dollar. So I thought about buying it. Then I asked the kid who work at the store on how to buy/pay for demo games or arcade game from PSN? But he didn't know. Would be much appreciate it you guys can help with infos :)
Btw, it was the 160GB model. Not mod yet.

You download demos from Playstation Store, all you need is to create an account. To pay for anything you need a credit card or prepaid ( http://www.ceneo.pl/7481188s ) this one is ~50€ you enter a code in Playstation Store and get the money to spend, dont know if those are availaible in Malaysia.
