Out of interest, what are the transfer status' of Mascherano and Tevez? Loans with buyouts?

Tevez is at Utd for an Undisclosed fee ...not Loan.

Mascherano is at Liverpool from West Ham ...doesn't say a fee.

Whether any of that will be changed in the first patch, I don't know.

I got it, uh, legally (A), last night. So, once I've ate breakfast, and cleaned the fuck out of my house, I might give it a whirl.

Just got it about 30mins ago.

Played the demo which was good enough for me to purchase.

Started up a game with Celtic for now just to get more into it.

I want to resist playing a "proper" game until the patch comes out. BUT, if it isn't coming out until Monday at the earliest, I'm not sure I'll be able to.

[Cadj]

This is really just a tester for now, get the hang of the game, test out some tactics, players.

It'll probably all change though >_>

On the game itself, i like the speed, it's very fast and much more playable than 07 imo.

I really like the confidence meters, showing you what the fans think of your players, signings and results game by game.

I started one as Fulham, we sucked.

[Timmoru Suzuki]

So, can you continue a demo save in the full version?

[9 to 5]

Always have been able to do before, so I would say yes.

[Cadj]

Yeah i tried it out and you can continue a demo save

[Baddar]

Although SI recommend that if you're downloading any patches, to begin a new game afterwards, and not continue any existing games. They will work, but I can see why they think it might not run properly.

Anyone noticed any bugs like this yet?

Nope. But it does say that it only happens if you have a pirated version of the game.

"Ha ha ha ha ha hah aha hah ahah haha haha hahah ahahahah haha haha hahaa.

Glad to see someone pirating our game having their game being screwed over.

That will not happen in the retail version. It is one of many things that will happen over the long term when the pirating scum steal food from our tables."

Good idea, SI

The many ha's was quite gay from someone at SI.

Someone will find a good crack, then he won't be laughing.

That they might. But to be honest, I'd rather save myself the hassle and just pay the small amount of £25 for it. It might be similar to 06 or 07, I don't know, because I didn't have them. That's why I think the price for this is decent. Others may think otherwise, though.

Piracy is not big, and it's not clever

[Summers]

I don't get the screenshot.

Oh wait, now I do.

Lols.

By the way...Anyone got any of the face-packs yet?

I got the ones for the Premier League (and the badges) Just waiting for my mate to send me the PL kits now...will look "the shit" then.

EDIT: Got the kits...Niiiice.

Ha they talk shit anyway, it happens with legit games if you continue with the saved game from the demo. Also, I'm in 2009 now and have not found any of these bugs which they are talking about (Yeah I'm using a no cd). It's all bs from Si's part to skip around the fact they are screwing over people who legit own the game

[Summers]

Someone post some links to facepacks/kits please.

[Baddar]

Someone post some links to facepacks/kits please.

Don't know links mate - what I do have is a 35mb file with everyones kits in (for all the clubs I think) in the game. PM me your MSN addy and I'll send them through (along with logos) if you like.

[Summers]

Wicked.
