EA: FIFA 10 is fastest-selling sports game 'ever'

EA's annual footie franchise must be doing something right this year because FIFA 10 has apparently sold 1.7 million copies in Europe during its first week. According to EA, the title is "the fastest selling sports game ever and EA's biggest European launch in history."

 

Even with the positive launch, GI.biz spoke with an analyst who believes the sales aren't going to help EA in the long-term. Doug Creutz of Cowan and Company notes that heavy discounts at supermarket chains and other incentives made initial sales strong, but if the situation plays out anything like FIFA 09, the year-on-year sales will only grow marginally. But like a head-butt goal in the first minutes of a match, FIFA 10 is putting on a good show during launch.

 

Cant wait till this comes out in the US on the 20th!

I'm going to get the download later. I don't really follow soccer but I've been hearing lots of good things about this game.

 

I'm only going to buy it when the price is real cheap though.

Soccer teams seem so complex to me. There is so many, and all over.

 

There millions of leagues thats why, every country has its own league.

 

If Basketball was made like that where they had all these leagues, but its great theres TONS of teams in Fifa games and like 10,000 players, its amazing.

How does the association or season mode work out?

Its called manager mode, you basically pick the team and you play in that league, its amazing because you can start off in a British 4th league and work your self up to the biggest league.

 

Ah I see.

 

I got the demo last week, great game. I mostly used Chelsea and played against Barcelona...Nicolas Anelka and Lampard are my faves.
