FIFA fans have hit EA up with an impressive 5,000 suggestions for the upcoming FIFA '08 at the company's community website, FIFPlay.com.

The suggestions mostly surround new leagues and teams as well as gameplay features. The suggestions include adding a stadium creator, 3D crowds, legend players/leagues, customized motions, Futsal, women's Football and new official tournaments. Whether any of the ideas will actually make the cut other than by happy coincidence, of course, is another story.

One SPOnG staffer (who may or may not be the third best footballer in the world) suggests that EA sneaks into the secret laboratory of Shingo 'Seabass' Takatsuka, the executive producer of Pro Evolution Soccer 2008, and has away with his game engine.

Some SPOnG staffers are less ardent PES fans, however, and are looking forward to seeing Ronaldinho's cheeky mug in the Wii version as we play through the various mini-games available.
