People Edit Rosters for Madden and NBA 2K, but why not Fifa????

Hey guys. I have been searching the internet and can't seem to find a place where people edit fifa rosters for a gaming console. I play fifa 12 on xbox 360 and I want to have updated rosters (so many moves in summer transfer window). For people who don't know, Fifa only updates it's rosters after it's two transfer windows (sometimes a month after it's done :/). Fifa have lazy editors unlike madden and nba 2k so you have to manually move players yourself and there is a lot more players and teams than those two games. I have heard people use programs to help them edit rosters and post them for Madden and NBA 2K for gaming consoles on here (and 2k share because there is an avenue to do editing and sharing) , but nothing for Fifa. Is it that it is too hard to do for fifa or no one wants to do it? I see all this great edits for the fifa pc game all over the internet (don't play pc games) and I don't get why there aren't ones for xbox360 and other systems. Can someone help me out?

You call others lazy for not editing FIFA and providing updated rosters, then you ask where you can find updated FIFA rosters.

I always do my own editing. One of the reasons I switched to PC gaming was because PES and FIFA are available on the PC, and there are always plenty of gameplay mods, roster editors, camera editors, etc. available for them. Sounds like you need to consider making the switch as well.

What I was saying was Fifa is lazy for not putting out official rosters more often. They only do it twice and nba2k and madden do it every week during the season. I know fifa has more players but 2 times is still too little. I wasn't calling people (if there are any since I can't find them) that edit rosters for fifa on consoles or any other editors (the editors of those 2 games do some hard work!!) lazy. It just doesn't make sense since people do edits for the pc version and xbox 360 and ps3 versions of madden and nba2k and not fifa. I just don't get it. I am just thinking editors that can do it for gaming consoles don't like fifa. Or maybe you can't add a lot more teams from all over the world like you can on the computer. Or the game is made in a way that's hard to edit. Or the whole creation centre thing that you can pay for is enough. That's all I can think of.

I don't think I will switch over. I only have a labtop (probably need a stronger computer to play especially with all the additions I want) and i like using the controller (but i think you can use an xbox360 controller for the computer somehow). Maybe I just don't like change since it seems feasible. I probably don't like going to the unknown and I don't want to buy a computer fifa version. lol

Like Yeats, I edit them myself. It's time consuming, sure, but it keeps me happy.

It also ensures that you can start a career mode with at least a semi-decent pool of free agents.

Too much leagues, too time consuming, FIFA has about 30 total leagues and each league has about 20-25 teams each. You're looking at 600+ teams there to edit, that's a pretty formidable task for the most dedicated roster editors out there.

update them yourself, it's not too difficult. Just use sites like transfermarkt.co and wikipedia to keep track of transfers and make the appropriate edits to selected players (like Oxlade-Chamberlain, Jack Butland etc). I've been doing it and it's not too hard, just takes an hour a week to keep things up to date. Loans are the only tricky thing and it takes a lot of guessing to predict what formations and what starting XI's team will use but it's good fun. It'd be nice if there was a community that helped each other organize these things such as projected XIs and player movement.

some good resources
