Not important I guess but I was struck by the first page of Operation Sports saying that they were going to review EA's flagship title ...FIFA.....is it really their flagship? Always thought Madden was.

FIFA sells like CRAZY, think of the international market dude.

In the US Madden is, but worldwide FIFA sells significantly more than Madden. IIRC Madden does around 4-5 million across all platforms a year whilst FIFA is in the region of 12M+.

FIFA has been EA's flagship for years now. Last year, FIFA became the fastest-selling sports game ever and reached more than 100 million units sold in its franchise history (the first ever sports video game franchise to hit 100 million units sold) - that that's even with a pretty good competitor (Pro Evolution Soccer) on the market during the last ten years or so.

These guys hit it dead on the head. We see FIFA as "just soccer" here in the U.S. But remember....soccer is the most popular sport in the whole world. FIFA sells more copies than any other sports game worldwide.

By the way....you might wanna check it out. FIFA is pretty tight.
