How GOALS Plans To Take The Best Parts Of FIFA Ultimate Team And Turn Them Into NFTs

When I was a child, I played a game called EverQuest, the first commercially successful 3D MMORPG and the only reason a game like World of Warcraft exists. EverQuest became so popular — and so time consuming — it was one of the first games in which players would pay for items or accounts using real-world dollars. But trading in-game assets for real-world money was a bannable offense in the game and scams were rife. 

Russia’s Hopes Of Competing In 2022 World Cup Effectively Ended By CAS Ruling

Russia's hopes of competing at the 2022 World Cup were effectively ended after the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) rejected a request from the Russian Football Union to freeze FIFA's suspension while their appeal is heard.

CAS said in a statement on Friday that the suspension of all Russian teams and clubs from FIFA's competitions would therefore remain in force.

The decision effectively prevents Russia from taking part in World Cup qualifying playoffs, scheduled later this month, as no CAS hearing has yet been fixed.

Russian Ousting Continues As EA Sports Announces It Will Take National Team And Clubs Off FIFA 22

EA Sports is following FIFA and UEFA’s lead in supporting Ukraine while also punishing Russia. The governing soccer bodies announced bans on the Russian national team and clubs earlier in the week. EA Sports has announced its plans to remove the national team and clubs from FIFA 22.

It Was A Big Week For Soccer Fans Who Own A Nintendo Switch

If you’re like our dear friend and colleague David Moore, you’re still playing Wii Sports every week on your dilapidated Wii, reliving the glory days of motion-control gaming. Or maybe you’ve still got that old GameCube working so you can play Super Mario Strikers when you grow tired of the FIFA grind. 

La Liga MX Se Va Del FIFA: Detalles De Su Acuerdo De Exclusividad Con eFootball

En el FIFA 23 (o como quiera que se llame el próximo videojuego de fútbol de EA Sports) no habrá Liga MX. O al menos no con los nombres oficiales de sus equipos y jugadores. 

¿Hora de un CDMX FC, un FC Guadalajara y un Guanajuato United? Vaya a saber uno. Lo que sí es una certeza es que el acuerdo que venía desde 2005 se termina y que los jefes del fútbol mexicano decidieron buscar otros horizontes.

EA Sports Creates Cool Christian Pulisic Mini-Doc; I Just Have One (Big) Issue With It

What’s better than a 10-part, eight-hour docuseries about your favorite sports team? How about a three-minute, 25-second mini-documentary on your favorite footballer? At least that’s what EA Sports hopes we prefer with a newly released Christian Pulisic mini-doc to promote FIFA 22, accompanied by a bizarre press release. 

EA Says Please Don’t Rage Quit FIFA 22 After Banning Over 30,000 Players

So how’s everyone enjoying FIFA 22 online then? For the 30,000+ players who were recently issued a seven-day ban for exploiting a FIFA Ultimate Team loophole — giving EA a little taste of its own medicine — I’d venture to say not very much. 

Recently, users discovered that quitting a FUT Champions match didn’t result in a loss. EA resolved the issue, identified users who’d consistently quit without suffering a loss and hit them with the ban. Some players complained on Twitter that their ban was a lot longer than seven days — 993 days longer, to be exact. 

Two FIFA 22 Stats That Will Blow Your Mind — And One That’ll Confirm What You Long Suspected

It’s been 22 days since FIFA 22 came out, and that means EA Sports wants to brag about its latest edition. The video game giant released a cool FIFA infographic summarizing how gamers are playing FIFA 22, and it’s simultaneously revealing and not at all surprising.

FIFA Has Some Really Bad Ideas For A Biennial World Cup, But This Is The Worst Yet

Have you ever been involved in a big brainstorm where all the ideas were utter trash and you thought: “Well, at least this is just the idea stage, otherwise we’d be fucked.” That’s essentially what is happening over at FIFA lately as they brainstorm in public the most godawful ideas you’ve ever heard for a biennial World Cup. None of these ideas should even leave the whiteboard, and yet here we are discussing them openly, fearing they might actually come to fruition, including a newly proposed idea that is just about the dumbest thing I’ve ever heard. 

I Finally Tried eFootball — Please Don’t Make The Same Mistake

I’ll admit, I was curious. With PES fully rebranding to eFootball and going free to play — something I’ve long thought FIFA should do — I was willing to give the franchise another shot. And yet, I cannot even recommend downloading this janky game right now.
