Fifa 12: PC Will Get “Impact Engine”

While I have to admit that I don't believe fifa belongs on a pc. It's a sit around with your mates and some beers game and it works really well for that. I love fifa 11 and play it all the time on the xbox with my flat mates and sometimes online but on pc it's just wrong to me.

Having said that, this decision is stupid.

What's stopping you from sitting around with mates and some beers when you play on PC? :confused:

That's what I do.

I'd say it's because most people, myself included, have a ~26-50" TV and a sofa to sit on for the console and a computer desk and chair and a ~20-30" monitor for the PC. The former will be better for playing multiplayer on to most people.

I'm fairly anti-console but i gotta agree with Moothead here, it is just so much more convenient and comfortable for everyone.

That doesnt stop people connecting it to a massive hd tv if they want to. I have my pc connected to 3 24" screens and also my 32" tv for gaming also. just as good as when im on console. can be done just as well on both. only reason I have fifa on console is that i cant connect 4 controllers to my pc
 
I have Fifa 06 on my PS2 and Fifa 11 on my PC. I play Fifa 06 a lot more. When I do play Fifa 11, it is done on my 42" telly. It just doesn't feel right though, too slow and clunky. Lack of optimization I suppose.
Though I think that Fifa 06 is just a better game. I've played later Fifa's on consoles and I'd probably say that they are console games moreso than PC games. However, no Fifa/PES has ever come close to being as good as Fifa 06.

I'd love to have a setup like that but it's just not viable for quite a lot of people.

I wouldn't buy a PS3 specifically for FIFA but if I had the choice between the PC and PS3 vesions I'd go with the PS3 everytime. It just feels like a console game to me and there is a lot more people playing on it so there's a bigger range of ability and getting into matches is very quick.

yeah but my point really was that you can just connect your rig to a big screen. my flatmate has his to just a 32" samsung for everything, wireless keyboard and mouse.

I don't really like using my PC with a big screen TV and using it from the sofa, It just feels like I'm on a console and using KB&M :p.
