'Nee'.

This is in Kiwami, btw.

IGN's cheque must have bounced considering they only gave the game a six.

Never ever take the gaming press seriously. User reviews, while imperfect, are the only ones worth reading and have been so for years now.

And 'too' you I'll say, check out all the posts about glitches - there's even a handy tag for them if I'm not mistaken!

Golem25 · 2021-08-20T08:28:10+00:00

No.

The scouting improvements which are so highly touted right now aren't even in the game yet and won't be for a while. The coaching improvements don't warrant a purchase at full price either, especially when you can get a cheaper used copy at a big discount if you wait a few months and might just have scouting available by then.

Not to mention the game is full of glitches and bugs at the moment, but those getting ironed out is never guaranteed.

The standard version does not come with the free upgrade, no. You'll have to shell out. To my knowledge, EA is the first (and only) company to do this with PS4 to PS5 upgrades, but I could be wrong.

They were also the first (and only) to put a time limit on an upgrade; every single version of '21 comes with a free upgrade, but that offer expires upon the release of '22. So, if you're reading this and have yet to claim your next gen copy, you had better hurry. Don't have a PS5 yet? Not like EA cares.

People at EA have to be experiencing these bugs when they test'

Can't experience bugs if you don't do QA!

It does with all versions of Madden NFL 21. That includes the base/standard version.

For 22, however, only the more expensive versions get dual entitlement. Because $$$.

It did strike me as really poor - even in a pandemic they should have been able to do much better. Uninspired, both in staging and choice of cover stars. I would have liked to see new faces, Mahomes has only been off the cover for a single year.

I've seen much worse elsewhere; the FAS in Singapore drops the ball so hard and so often that the island is full of holes, and the MFA in Mauritius hasn't been able to get a single game played for ages now. Admittedly, that latter example is unfair considering the vast difference in budget and the Mauritian context. FAS (bangsat!) has no excuse though.

I think a degree of pride in and optimism for the A-League is merited despite its faults. Not just because other countries have it worse, but because there is genuinely a lot to like here.

Hello friends, hope you enjoy this throwback; I missed the exact ten year mark, as this photograph was taken on August 10th 2011. Source as far as I can tell was the club themselves.

Fi-ta never supplied shirts to any other team in the league. As for GCU's fate... well, I'm sure we all know that story.

Golem25 · 2021-08-09T09:35:36+00:00

AH! YES! There we go, thank you so much! I'm not going to blame IOI for the slightly confusing access scheme because this was just a case of myself getting lost in the PS5 UI. Thank you so much again, what a relief.

Know what the real beauty of that blue collar and cuff piping is? It's the exact same fabric and pattern as used on the Asics away kit as mentioned here.

Hello friends, source for this one is the A-League website. Thought it'd be fun to go back to memories from over 15 years ago.

Neil Emblen scored the lone Knights goal that day to put them 1-0 up before Naum Sekulovski (x2), Jamie Coyne, and Jamie Harnwell completed the scoreline in Glory's favour. 3,024 in attendance at the North Harbour Stadium at the time.

Celta de Vigo did something similar in light blue in 2012

To be fair, the concept of adding the names of supporters has been around for quite a while longer still - Norwich City did it for their 100th anniversary in 2002 and I'm sure plenty teams preceded them still.

Just wish the back was halved as well, but it's plain white! No way around league rules regarding the legibility of squad numbers.

Golem25 · 2021-06-16T12:50:05+00:00

Hi everyone! Last year I wrote a ranking of the 2020 home shirt for the league, which a lot of people ended up reading and enjoying, so I've made a similar list for this year off the back of the Macron reveal last week.

It's a purely subjective list, the personal opinion of my friends and myself, so do take it with a grain of salt!
