FIFA 17 Wishlist: 10 Things That Must Be Included

They're not in the game... but should be!

It's almost 23 years since the FIFA series burst into our homes and started to wreck our social lives you know. We wouldn't have it any other way though, would we? 

You don't need me to tell you that the series has come a long way from the days of FIFA International Soccer, but while the progression shown in various areas of the title has made it the undisputed King of football video games, it has also taken us in some unexpected directions that have proven to be game changers. I think I'm safe in saying nobody saw Ultimate Team coming and look at the behemoth that has gone on to become over the last few years. 

We're at the stage now where the majority of the basic features of a FIFA game are perfect, it's all about the fine tuning and luxuries those boffins at EA Sports give us now. 

As the years have gone on, the list of things us gamers have had to complain about the FIFA titles have dwindled as we've marvelled at the intricacies that have been given to us. That being said, as good as FIFAs 14, 15 and 16 were, they still aren't the perfect game.

Here's a BIG wishlist of 10 features that would make FIFA 17 the G.O.A.T! 

10. An In-Game TV Channel

Sky Sports have been threatening to take over the FIFA franchise in recent years with the introduction of familiar faces like Martin Tyler, Alan Smith, Jeff Stelling and Geoff Shreeves. Why does't FIFA go all the way and have an in-game TV channel, with cut scenes taking you into a match, providing quick analysis at half time, and showing the full highlights at full time.

Obviously, with the restrictions that come with pre-recording lines and whatnot, this could become very boring, very quickly. But surely there should be enough space to have a few different versions of Stelling presenting things to keep it relatively fresh.

The experience we get on a basic FIFA match day almost feels like the real life thing we see on television. This progressive step would blur the lines between the two even further.
