FIFA 23 Review: EA’s last ever FIFA game isn’t quite a clinical finish

Find out how the final football game in EA Sports’ long-running series performs in our FIFA 23 review! If you’ll allow me to torture an analogy, trying to make the perfect FIFA game must feel a bit like Guardiola’s vintage Barcelona side trying to beat Jose Mourinho’s 2009-10 Champions League-winning Inter team. You can do seemingly everything right, but for all the swashbuckling beauty and idealism of the world’s best attacking teams, there’s nothing like the obstinate force of reality to bring everything tumbling down. FIFA 23 takes another crack at the impossible balancing act that presents itself to EA…

First OnLive, now Stadia: Cloud Gaming has been rejected by the market twice – it’s time to let it go

Billions of megacorp cash and Stadia still couldn’t mount a serious challenge to consoles launching in an era of chip shortages, pandemics, and recessions. It’s an odd full-circle moment for me that the least surprising bombshell news of all time – Stadia’s unceremonious cancellation – lands just a week out from EGX. The Eurogamer Expo (as it was still called back then) of 2011 was more or less the start of my career in games coverage, and it started when I managed to get an interview with OnLive’s Senior Vice President John Spinale, a smooth-talking American businessman of the kind…
