This feels like a PS2 FIFA that got imported into the 360. Same goal celebrations, the generic faces look like a touched up equivalent of the ones from back then as well. Will say that I didn't expect the flipping Faroe Islands to have licensed kits though.
I got this bundled with my 360. I had this and Oblivion to get on with in the early days. I remember saying when I loaded this up "wow, it's just like watching it on the telly" 😂
3:21 who is that even meant to be! Loving these videos. Such an odd game, "do you love the thrills, spills and excitement of a world cup? You do? Ok here's a game where you play the slog of qualification, which nobody likes, then when you make it through, it's game over, see you in 8 months when we make you pay for another world cup game you mug"
@@ChorizoMachine As far as I found out, this was supposed to be Henrik Larsen, Danish coach that managed Faroe Islands back then. The resemblance is immaculate xD
@@WordLifePL haha ea have had an obsession with zooming in on managers during the game cut scenes. I get the intent, but the execution is often butchered when they use the most generic character models to represent some of the managers. It still happens on fifa/fc24 to this day. I don't know why they don't just write a bit of code that means only the licensed/ scanned managers get the close up treatment whilst the odd looking generics don't get seen
So both PES6 and this were stripped down bare bones games released on the 360, Imagine buying both for £100+. it seems like most consoles have very poor launches/first years.
It's stuff like this that really made taking up a brand new console early on a bit tough. Like "oh, you want footy? You got this or nothing for another year".
The problem with this game is that would why would u pay money just to qualify for the world cup it's basically a tech demo it was just then testing the new hardware something pes also struggled with
