LGC 07: FIFA 08 details revealed

360 News | Online features explained.
EA has confirmed a few extra details on FIFA 08 via a press release. FIFA 08 will include a new featured mode "Be a Pro: Online Team Play". This mode will allow up to ten people anywhere in the world to play in the one soccer match online. The mode will be coming for both the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 versions of the game and will be available six to eight weeks after the game is shipped to stores.

“At EA SPORTS our dream is to create a full 11 versus 11 online gameplay experience in which each user will have a set position during the match and train specifically for that position,” said Joe Booth, producer of FIFA 08. “Be A Pro is the first step in this direction, and now, with the ability to deliver five versus five online gameplay as free downloadable content, we are moving even closer towards the realization of this dream.”

“Be A Pro forces you to think and react like a professional player where you experience the whole range of emotions players go through during the course of a game,” said Andrew Wilson, Executive Producer of FIFA 08. “Now we are taking this experience online for you to share with your friends. You will have to learn to work together as a team much like any real teams go through in order to be successful.”

EA also revealed FIFA 08 will feature 576 licensed teams, 30 leagues and more than 15,000 players. You'll also be able to capture video of your best moves and goals and upload them to the FIFA 08 website. We think EA has licensed some of the Hyundai A-League teams as well, but EA hasn't confirmed anything yet.
