"FIFA 2003"

Anyone played FIFA 2003 on GameCube or GBA yet?

Send me your thoughts and experiences

i thought that.

Well they are in the game, the best way to get them promoted fast is to pick a 'good' existing Premiership team like Arsenal or Man Utd then simulate a season (so you dont have to play 38 games), you just get the results up fast so a season lasts like 10 mins) then save the game when the new teams get promoted, hopefully one will be Norwich for you, then simply choose them from the team list.

Thats the easy way to get Norwich available in Fifa 2003 the other way is to hope that Norwich get promoted in May and then wait till November next year for Fifa 2004 before you can play as them :s

i support norwich and i was hoping to make them but i can't ... :'(

Its impossible to pass judgement over a game that you havnt even played, so what if a few reviewers say Fifa 2003 is 'ok' or 'a little better than before'... the only opinions that really count are from the people that pay their money for these games and the same people that have (or have had) both Fifa 2003 and PES, they are the people who can truly pass judgement on this subject. We really shouldnt be having this debate tho, if youre happy with what youve got then good for you (even if it is 2nd best :p

Oh and 12 year old?, now that was funny, really.

Oh please, I'm not gonna argue with some 12 year old. I don't get impressed by official kits and the like.

Err... Why does being a Man Utd fan make me biased to PES? Elaborate.

Plus I've read all the reviews, doesn't take long to notice the pattern.

Simply, PES is a better over all game than FIFA, I'm sure that most of you will be able to agree with that.

I've heard it's a better game than before, but it's still no PES.

So overall "play it b4 u make a comment." Rather not thanks, got a better game.

Sadly that option is missing from Fifa 2003... it would have been the icing on the cake.

I tell you what i did discover last night tho... when you play in season mode and complete a season in the premiership... 3 teams get relegated and 3 'new' teams get promoted, they were Derby, Leicester and Norwich (i think) which was a nice touch, the 3 new promoted teams were not selectable originally in the game settings so i was pleasantly surprised to see that i wouldnt have to play the same old 19 other teams each season :)

I take it that you can make teams and edit players? jc

FIFA 2003 is better than 2002 FIFA World Cup and Virtua Striker 3, and on par with ISS2 and SEGA Soccer Slam.

He just made an assumption based on the previous Fifa games and thught we would back him up. But 2003 is a decent game, so I've heard.
