I am a big football fan. I watch it more than I play it but I think I play the video games more than I watch it. I stumbled across an article on the Symbian Weblog said Nokia was giving away 15,000 free licenses for FIFA 08 on N-Gage.

I was overjoyed until I realized that the offer did not extend to America and was limited to Europe. Nokia, in future, do recognize that your product base is growing on this side of the world (not everyone is in bed with Apple and rocking and iPhone) and you need to show us some love too !

Initially disappointed that I could not secure a license for FIFA 08, I selected the United Kingdom as my region and got my activation code sent to my sister’s phone in London ! After scribbling down the 3-line URL and checking it twice, it failed when I used my N82′s browser but I was successful in downloading the license onto my pc. Go Firefox !

So regardless of what happens on this week during Manu’s match against Barcelona, I can relive Manu’s glory on my cellphone, anywhere, anytime !
