Sorry to be thick but does anyone know the difference between the special edition and the normal game?

I'm picking it up tomorrow when I finish work (working a half day tomorrow) from Game, as I have £22 of credit with them

I played the demo, briefly, and was horrified that they'd take away the 'pressing' option (O button) as this was how I normally win games of Fifa 11. Can anyone tell me if this is something you get used to, or am I going to get hammered every game? It's the only thing putting me off forking out another £40.

you'll get used to it, when i started playing the demo i was getting smashed on semi-pro. You just have to defend more like real football now, you cant just go hurtling into a player hoping to get the ball, you press R1 to get your team-mate to 'contain' the player with the ball too, which is annoying because they dont actually tackle them...

You hold down R1 for that now.

I kept pressing circle button and the players just stick a foot out, regardless of where there are in relation to the ball. It looked like 10 of my players were doing the Haka. I'll have to give it some more time. I am tempted to buy it just for our lovely new kit.

You can change the defending back to "legacy mode" in the settings. That should sort it out.

I got mine delivered this morning from Asda Online, £34.97 for the Special Edition. Pleased with that. Now they are only doing the regular non SE version for £38.97.
