The other night, a new website called SoccerGameZ was launched. With a decent intro, the Dutch gaming site GameZ.nl, entered a whole new genre of gaming. It looks like a great site for all the FIFA fans out there. At least Dutch if you can read Dutch.

Soccered Broadens Horizons
We got this from Soccered's Robert Marney. Give it a read:

"Yesterday we relaunched the site, with many new features, and sections. The most notable change is that of our design. It is no longer limited and confused, now we have a more robust design. The design coupled with the new search functions, mailing lists, and news headlines makes the site more enjoyable to use.

We have opened the following sections:
  • A Uefa Challenge Section
  • A European Super League Section
  • A Fifa 2002 Section
  • A Managerial Section
  • An a ISS 2PE section
*those sections are created with very little content at the moment, but we have already started to build up the database.

Soccered.com is also the only site that offers Uefa Challenge downloads, so no one misses the oppurtunity to improve that game.

In the Fifa 2001 section, we have opened the 'top 10 patch section' which offers reviews, and information on the top 10 patches at that moment in time. Schmeichel01 has also put together a good kit tutorial for people using Paint Shop Pro. We are expecting news of our latest patch RDSP II shortly. So all in all I suggest everyone heads to www.soccered.com today!

The Ecuadorean fairy tale
Oh yeah, every thing is possible in the wonderful world of football... while Brazil is struggling to qualify to the next World Cup, Ecuador, a fairly humble team, is giving a lot to talk about in the latinamerican football scene and where they are starting to pack their stuff and booking hotels in either Tokyo or Seoul, as they go fairly easily on the 3rd spot of the Conmebol standings.

And to conmemorate this Conmebol World Cup Qualifiers, Fifa COLOMBIA has published some great kits for Peru and Chile national teams, and two great new wallpapers from the impressive Ecuador national team.

FIFA 2001 Stadium sites are popping up all over the place at the moment and now I'm going to tell you of another one.

Stadium Freakz is a couple of months old now and is already home to many G2 and G3 stadiums. The stadiums that are being built are at the moment German stadiums and there is a possibilty that some Austrian stadiums are going to be made.

Talking of the site, it is in two languages - German and English. So if you're looking for FIFA 2001 stadiums (in particular German ones!) make Stadium Freakz your next stop.
