LATEST NEWS - 18-06-98
- World Cup 98 is out in Singapore. I have it,
and despite exams, am playing it day and night. The World Cup
Tactics Guide will be coming out soon!
INTRODUCTION TO THE TACTICS GUIDE
What I have here is essentially a repository of
tips, tactics and strategies on FIFA98: RTWC, gleaned mostly from my many
hours playing the game, but which also include viewers tips. Tactics will also cover World
Cup 98, when it comes out later this year. You are more than welcome to contribute.
The page is designed to maximise accessibility,
hence the sparseness of graphical and multimedia content.
BACKGROUND INFO ON THE FIFA SERIES
EA Sports
remains one of the most successful of EA's 'divisions',
and it's easy to see why. The games they've produced so far, and I must stress so far,
have been high on presentation, but deliver often unsatisfactory gameplay. Taking the FIFA
series into account for example. The first FIFA (94) was the tentative first step taken by
EA Sports into the gaming world, but for it's time, it was pretty enjoyable. FIFA 96
marked the beginning of EAS' golden era, as successive games from then on all contained
immaculate multimedia content. Game-wise, FIFA 96 was fun, though I got bored of winning
after not too long. FIFA 97 was absymal, despite the new 3D engine. Controls were awkward,
gameplay was slow (in my opinion) and it was as far from real soccer as possible.

 Seriously,
despite what's being said, this is the best browser around. Without it, you may not
be able to see the nice defining borders of the tables.
 One of the best FIFA98 sites out there. There's a trivia quiz there
which is very enjoyable (mainly because I set some of the questions)
 The best FIFA98 site on the net. Full of stuff to download, brilliant
replays, updated very frequently. Pity about the dearth of strategies though.
 My little
web-counter. Besides merely keeping track of the hits, Webtracker also allows me to
analyse the nature of the hits.
