Player Valuation: £70m
What can you do with it?

For years I've used pro evolution soccer as my go-to, renewing it every few years or so. However with recent changes they've shot themselves in the foot and I can no longer do with it what I want to do without handing them a blank cheque.

Each year I run a league on my ps4 (or laptop), where I set up 12 British teams and play through a fixture list against the console - normally playing as the home team if one of my squads plays the other. I freely transfer players to make the teams ... to illustrate - Messi is currently on Notts Forest's books and sonetimes create and edit players and also edit kits. I can also set up my iwn cup competitions.

Can you do all of this this on Fifa?

Can you do it without being scammed by having to pay for extras (an absolute deal breaker)?

Does it stop working at the end of the season?

I'm not bothered about playing online etc. In fact I'd prefer if it works without an Internet connection altogether.

There seem to be a dozen versions of fifa each year .... which version should i look for is a) basic and b) allows me to do the stuff above.

Would appreciate knowledge from you fifa fanboys who know and I promise to stop looking down on you from my pro evo perch.

Cheers. Great site lads.

You can do custom cups/leagues but its not as customizable as PES
You can't edit kits
You don't have to pay for extras if you don't want
No, it'll work beyond the season - some people still play 10 year old FIFAs
You don't have to play online. It will try to connect you, but you don't have to
Just buy the standard edition, will be the cheapest
 
I thought Fifa was finished on EA and there were other ones coming out, but i stopped buying it a couple of years ago.

What teams come with standard fifa? Eg pro evo used to doTop 2 divisions of the major leagues in Europe and then div 1 in others.
 

With fifa its naff on nintendo but much better on ps5

I've heard fifa and ea are finished too

Fifa23 on ps5 is quite good with change of kits etc - you can name a team and a budget and start in what ever league you want

Don't know what's going to happen in the future though with naming rights etc
