In this year's edition of the FIFA series on the PC, the graphics system is finally upgraded to the next-gen standards of the Xbox 360 and the Playstation 3. Next generation graphics have been a part of the series ever since FIFA 07 on the Xbox 360 and on the PS3 as well in FIFA 08. Most PC players have the hardware to handle the demand for resources that comes with next gen graphics, so why has EA largely ignored the PC community's call for next gen graphics on PC editions of the FIFA series until now?

Not really football related...sorry 'bout that.

Re: The beginning of the end for debt ridden clubs?

Yes, Chelsea is in debt - but we are really at no risk of going bust. Roman Abramovich owns Chelsea Football Club. A bank owns Manchester United and Liverpool. With so many banks in major debt, if these banks are nationalized they could very easily call up these debts at once. That could very well spell the end of these clubs unless another investor was to come in and take up these huge debts. I think Liverpool are at more risk than Manchester United, but it could happen to them as well.
