Summary

“It did appear that they might be onto something but not so.” After almost thirty years of (more than) annual releases, EA Sports' FIFA series of football (soccer) games ended in 2022. Leon, Chris Worthington, Tony and a team of listeners tackle every generational leap and incremental upgrade from 16-bit Mega Drive to PS5 and Xbox Series X. We remember the highs (FIFA 11) and lows (FIFA 97), the faded cover stars, the features that have come and gone and lament the death of all competition, as EA Sports FC 24 continues exactly where FIFA 23 left off. http://media.blubrry.com/caneandrinse/caneandrinse.com/podcast/cane_and_rinse_issue_595.mp3 Music featured in this issue: 1.
